Hi, All:I know this has been addressed in the past but I wanted to share my experience and get some feedback on others' interactions with Freedom Mentor.I've been seeking a mentor in REI for a while and have been watching Phil's videos on YouTube for years so I sought his 'mentorship' via his Freedom Mentor Program.

If you're dead-set on OOS REI, then I'd suggest studying up on the books, articles, forum posts, videos, etc. on the subject, and talking with as many OOS investors as possible (ESPECIALLY inexperienced investors who tried OOS REI for one of their first deals).

Find Brandon's videos on YouTube for the "four square" method of analyzing homes and practice.
