@Jason Wray, The reason that our shop is pretty hot about your post is two-fold, we do all of the things that you are implying that we don't (other than government loans, we don't work in that space). 

Partner with a real estate marketing company out of Las Vegas or Provo, Utah to market, promote and advertise the “mentorship” system consisting of the free seminar, followed by the modest fee weekend workshop, followed by the $15,000 - $40 000 full mentorship program.Here are the usual results1- 99% of “students” never earn back the cost, despite 1000s of wasted hours2- students learn nothing of real estate principles, real estate finance and real estate law which are the necessary foundation blocks of knowledge necessary for a SUSTAINABLE career in real estate investment 3- with hundreds or thousands of “students” unleashed on the real estate selling public they’re AT BEST an annoyance of trying to do “unrealistic” deals, AT WORST lead to a disastrous result for vulnerable homeowners.4 - The career real estate investors, service providers, brokers, lenders, etc are so disgusted with all of it and the outcomes they see that that can’t even comprehend that the subject technique or strategy does have a legitimate use when utilized (1) by and experienced and well capitalized buyer and (2) full disclosure is provided all parties with legal representation.
