Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Jay Hinrichs, while I wasn't going to call them MLM, I did attend an Armando Montelongo (A&E's Flip this House from mid 2000's) seminar at a hotel conference room in 2007 or 08, which was the free funnel to spend $1,500 for a three day seminar or $25,000 for an in-person mentorship.I have seen similar promoted with Christina and Tarrek from Flip or Flop more recently.I didn't start realizing how profitable education can be until the last 5 or so years.  

There are small communities in Texas where the 3 or 4 small brokerages in town just keep a list between themselves or have created a Facebook group among themselves to promote their listings.I have run across a few Brokers over the years that just worked with buyers in the purchase of HUD/VA foreclosures and were not Realtors and therefore not members of a Board/MLSHowever, in any MLS that I have been involved with if the Broker is a member of the MLS, all of their agents are also required to be members. 

**Limited Flexibility in Marketing:** The program often promotes fix-and-flip strategies, which may not align with everyone’s investment goals.

@Jay Check Are you a real account or is this just another promotion for a lying guru?

One last thing, you can join a group on Facebook, specifically for wholesalers (legal) and promote your business.

In general, Cohan is overhyped by gurus who mis-promote it as a loophole for people who do not bother to keep records and receipts.

Philadelphia has implemented various forms legislation over the years between abatements, land banks and density bonuses geared towards promoting development in areas that suffered from disinvestment and housing affordability challenges with some legislation having been more effective than others. 

I was thinking for “promotional purposes “ to have Airbnb influencers stay to do some videos.

I'm starting to wonder if Dealmachine is just really great at promotion of the product.

All said, you will find many folks within these forums that are strong promoters of self-directed IRAs.
