After 30 + years as a real estate investor, private lender, speculator and small developer, I can tell you that many of these hyped systems CAN lead to a highly profitable deal - but - the requirements are always understated by the promoters.Almost all these "systems", which are actually very common deal types to experienced investors, require the following to be implemented successfully1- A good deal of cash or access to such (not including mortgage money on property being acquired)2- Significant directly relevant experience (much, much more than what can be acquired through purchase of the book, seminar or mentoring system)3- Deal analysis and deal making skills4- Time - to spend on finding, negotiating, performing due diligence on, etc. potential deals - usually at least 20 hours per week.5 - Persistence - to evaluate 100 potential deals, talk with countless people, make unlimited phone calls only to have 99% of your work lead to a rejection.This is why my empirical evidence suggests that the satisfaction rate of those that purchase these systems is way under 10%.
