Shop elsewhere. 

Rachel,You may want to shop your personal and the 4 Plex. 

Personally if its just how to do a transaction that is what your after just get a real estate license its much cheaper and then go through the training some of the big shops have.. their training is usually free while you have your license hung there.. and you will be rubbing shoulders with people that are actually doing deals.. not people sitting in a cube reading from a script..

@Seth Golie @Cody Sperber  BP nation has a pretty negative sentiment on virtually anything that is paid training. this tends to be a DIY site.. and of course they have their own materials they sell which I have never bought or looked at personally.I do believe though you could shop E bay and buy virtually every providers of these types of services used from folks looking to resell them.. there is not really much that is new in RE .. for some one with zero experience there is defiantly a learning curve but most of the SYSTEMS are interchangeable and will hit on the same topics..

I am currently living in Denver Colorado and am thinking of packing up shop and moving down to Florida for a change. 

Typically 1% You need to shop it around and let them know what you are willing to pay.

One stop shop bridge to term line of credit starting at 1 M to Acquire, renovate and lease vacant homes for a long-term hold strategy for the buy/hold investor - 25% out of pocket from investor - 75% from the line for acquisition and rehab-Minimum of: 75% loan to value or 1.20x projected debt service coverage.

I assume I'll shop around for perhaps a better rate as due diligence.  

Originally posted by @John Teachout:Expenses associated with real estate investing can be deducted but never your own labor.But what about cost of shop space/tool rental to make something?

I guess you might put a great deal under contract first and then shop it around.The special knowledge that you would need would be the knowledge that the investors and agents would need.
