Hey guys so my wife and I just went to the seminar yesterday and for us it’s $195 for both of us and I just wanna confirm that in this three days they don’t offer you their contacts or lenders? Because during the seminar they said that they give you their connections and in general give you all the tools you need to succeed. We didn’t have the money yesterday we were going to wait until our next payday and they said as long as we pay before the three days we can attend 


 They will NOT give you any of those leads unless you sign up for the other courses which range from $9K -25K. It’s a complete scam.

I wish I hadn’t figured this out the hard way. I attended a free event that shared a few useful tips and offered for $300 to provide resources to actually use when finding and analyzing deals, as well as resources on how to find leads for off-market deals, etc. It was a 2 for 1 admission so a friend and I split this and paid $150 each.

Unfortunately it has been nothing but dangling a carrot; the speaker has reviewed a handful of useful facts and tidbits but not actual education on how to use them and instead says “wouldn’t it be great if you had someone LIKE A COACH to make sure you were doing this correctly?”

It’s a 3 day seminar to pitch to you all the reasons why you need to spend more money joining their “Elite Success Club” to get help with real estate deals. 

While this might be something many people are interested in, I am not getting what I paid for. On top of my $150, I’m out the cost of a hotel stay and income lost while away from my existing business. I’m on day 2 of 3 and not sure if I should bother staying in hopes that I get what I came for, or if I should just leave now. 


 Went to their 3 day seminar here in Houston this weekend and I can confirm this is pretty much it. By the second day I realized all they were trying to do was sell their expensive programs and scaring people into thinking they need a coach to handle all their finances. 

Obviously it helps to have help but for a prize of $25k its not worth it.

I should have posted after the conclusion of the event; by the end of day 2 I started raising hell and was given a refund. I was invited to stay for the rest of the event. I made it through mid morning of day 3 and decided to leave. If anyone has already spent money to attend the 3 day, even if you just go for the first morning consider asking for a refund if it's not what you're looking for.
