Quote from @Joe Summer:
Hi everyone! Joined Land Academy within the past few months.The course is $2000+/- depending if they have a sale. I have to say the course is a disappointment, it's totally outdated. However, some of the intro music is comical..makes you feel like a band of belly dancers are about to arrive. I kid you not!!  Anyway, after the dancers leave, the videos seem to drag on.

They know the course is outdated and even say it. However, they want you to look up any questions or ask questions on their free forum landinvestors. That too is outdated...but they say the answers are still valid for many questions. So if you are new and have no clue...how do you know if the info in the course needs to be adjusted or questioned?? They count on their members to answer your questions, which their answers may or may not be correct.

But, if you want new, updated material, they have the $16,000 10 week career path class. Oh and they just came out today...         with the two "Brand New Intensives" classes. Members get $500 off for both classes. So your total is $3000. for the three week class. 

So what did I pay for a few months ago???  Seems to me they should be sending new members the updated information...free!!!

The Land Geek. He too sells you the old outdated beginner course, then wants you to upgrade to the $10,000+ package.                LA and LG are great marketers, always huckstering something!

Seth Williams/RETipster really puts out a good product/course, offers tons of information, updates his material frequently (video and written), interviews guests offering valuable info (ex: asset protection, law, taxation). He does videos on how to use various software, he also does reviews on products (website, crm, mapping, etc) He offers two tier pricing for his course.
I would recommend ReTipster over the other classes.

Best to all!

Joe, can you update us with some details on land deals you have done, costs per lead, potential income etc?  Thanks!

Lots of good reviews but zero follow-up from posters on deals they have actually DONE.  Not good.

Any luck Justin?  I'm on Batch currently which is fine but everything is an "add-on" cost-wise.  Thanks.

You would be astounded how much these "gurus" make from their coaching programs. Assuming the commonly used, "magical" number of $4800 for coaching, just 200 students gets them $960K a year, and that's not counting deal splits. Is it any wonder these guys have given up wholesaling on their own? Coaching is much easier and more lucrative.

I just got Paul Moore's book.  Just started it but seems like no fluff and honest so far.

Thanks Jason!  What's working best for you?  I've been cold-calling but you have to check the Do Not Call Registry every time...
