I have paid a LOT of money on other courses presented by gurus, and I find that from the viewpoint of experience with other educator/vendors, and common sense discernment, Chris McClatchey delivers Great Value, in a professional and fun environment.

I love to fly-fish, tie my own flies and take my kids out to explore the wilderness. 

With huge population growth and BYU, maybe it'll be a good play for them but I prefer cash flow.Ogden is a friendlier cash flow environment but it's a rougher area with some nice areas, some normal downtown areas, and some rough areas.

@Seshu Yaramala All of this will need to be put in the context of your local environment, but right off the bat, I have the following observations:1) $390K for scheduled rent of 36000/yr (32400 with vacancy allowance of 10%) gives you a Cash-on-Cash return / CAP rate of ~4.1% if you were to make a cash purchase.  

It creates an incredible environment for competition and I think Ryan nailed it on the head with this post that this is a great way for those new to real estate to get involved, earn and learn all at the same time.
