I would encourage folks to watch the American greed episode on Remington financial.. little different they took due diligence fee's  this company is taking money to bird dog deals for them. but it was proven that in almost 20 years Remington funded less than 12 deals and they took in 5k to 10k per client. made millions. this I see is somewhat of a parallel offer to fund the deals make the bar so high that no one ESPECIALLY a newbie can get over the bar..

The disadvantage is that they require boxes that hang on the wall and many Americans don't care for that look.

Real estate investing is the safest, and most effective way to build wealth for the vast majority of Americans.  

That is my theory, based on about 1,000 years of the history of real estate law from the Battle of Hastings in 1066 to the American Revolution, to the present.

He puts on this "hard working religious American" front, when in reality, hes just another scammer online.DO NOT BUY OR TRUST THIS GUY.
