You’re asking the right question - is the juice (legal protection) worth the squeeze (the hassle of separate accounting)?

Name rings a bell, I have not read his stuff.But I have a question, why would you consider paying big bucks that you can get for nothing or very little with a little effort?

Good NNN commercial properties can generate those returns, too, provide you tenant doesn't go belly up.

What if your seller goes belly up in bankruptcy or other creditors come into the picture during your option period?

Once folks realize this is a belly to belly business their close ratios go way up... now of course if the sellers are out of area or out of state then you MUST give good phone to be successful and that is another discipline you must learn.. you must be very good.

Getting belly to belly with people who know other people? 

Lastly, a program - and sometimes these are the most costly - is something that you enter much like you would enter a college degree - knowing that the juice is worth the squeeze meaning you know exactly what you are going to get on the other end.Its unfortunate that all three often get lumped into one category so i would advise people to read the early part of this thread where you broke this distinction down as well.See ya - Chris

Will Sifert You have already received some great advice... well, except for Michael Quarles ;) Unless you are planning on sending thousands of letters out, I personally suggest juicing every phone call through a friendly, yet professional conversation.

I hear the fall from grace can be long and hard.....Hey Bill Gulley,To go back and read your belly aching comments in this thread it looks a little out of context with you having 100 influence as compared to when you had like 70 or whatever it was.

Some will be belly to belly letters and some will be Wall Street.
