Wow!  They have quite a list there.  

One would wonder if that was their way of blackballing the competition?

They might have printed all these names to delete competition.True. The only reason why I wanted to share this info if that I have had a personal experience with 2 of those gurus. Full of sh** and swindled me of $ 12,000 I am still recovering.

I wish someone on CNN would just expose them. Save 100's of people some money and stress.

[reoconsultants]

I agree 100% with that as well.

12k let me guess Sheets and Allen I got to know am I close?

[moolamatch]

Oh my gosh..Robert Allen is one of them. You are good!

Wait till i get my hands on that guy..lol* (kiddin)

You heard of these 2 by any chance?

1. Dwan Bent Twyford
2. Nouveau Riche( John Piccolo)

Reconsultants,

Have you heard of a Casey Cerni out of Chigaco.  He runs a business called Homeowners Assistance Agency.  Another name for his business is Foreclosure LMS.  

For $1600.00 he has some manuels on the forclouser process and his business.  He gives you a websight access for your clients to go to and there is an application page on the sight for the client to fill out.

Let me know if you have heard anything about this guy?

I do appreciate it.

Thanks,

Joe

There is yet another I have not heard of!

See the thing about dealing with people in foreclosure is to simply treat them like humans!

As far as the process it is a state by state issue not a nationwide process in some states like here in Colorado they have a 75 day redemption period. In IL they have 90 days.. I do not think there are two States that are the total same.

As far as the lists go on some of the foreclosure web sites most of them are out dated the key to doing these properties are to get to the homeowners before anyone else has a chance. So get the list from your county as it comes out.

So with that being said I would not pay $1,600.00 for any program! It is all public information. And to see how someone else runs there business is kinda irrelevant as we all know there are not two people that run there business the same. With that being said if I wanted to invest $1,600.00 into knowledge I would honestly spend $500.00 on marketing and $1,100 to take a week off of your JOB and go to the counties and ask as many questions as I could to get a full understanding of the process in your area.

Hope that helped!

Good Post:

I had the same experience regarding Nouveau Riche. I did not meet the Jim Piccolo guy though.

Its just ridiculous to expect people with little money to pony up $16,000K for R2E2 Program( I ahve 2 turtles that I named R2 D2 by the way! he he)

What really surprises me is that the 'mentors' sell these packages to everyone are the 'all knowing' GURUS. So if the mentors have already gone through the R2E2 program, why the hell are they so desperate to sell YOU the program. If the program/system really worked, then they should be out there making deals happen. I suspect even one of them has done deals. They are just sales people making a paycheck by selling customers the programs. A mentor gets $8,000k for every $16,000k program that he/she sells to the customer.

Anyway, to each his own. The most Ive learned is through watching and learning from a friend, who is a full time investor in NY. If you know anybody who is a successful investor, just offer to assist them with general paper work,administration in exchange for learning the business. That worked best for me.
