Eric Medemar's Wholesale Course

[John_in_NC]

I think everyone is missing the POINT

If this guy just gives advice for free with no/little experience to back it up, that is one thing, but he does it with the intent to lure in people to pay for his advice. Advice that could and probably will bankrupt them or cause financial distress in a matter of years. It did for him!! I caught on long ago he was a phony, but stayed out of it. Now I am mad, he has run off the real investors who don't want to constantly fight his stupid advice. Its fraud when you misrepresent yourself like that, then use alias names to complement yourself about your bogus course. I think if the owner of this site knew how liable he is if someone decides to sue, he would be gone. I think the mods should boot him NOW! Him and any other name with an IP associated with his.

I am checking into his tax problem, I suspect these judgements are not anywhere close to a million, and have more to do with small taxes on commissions. There is no way this guy has taxes of a million(from RE) without a trace of a property transfer for almost 30 years. How do you sell properties with Taxlliens going unpaid? Answer, you can't.

[chunkoftheearth]

Amen to that.  John, we'd like to know what you find.  Only case of taxes owing that high I can think of was Wesley Snipes who earned good money for movies.  I'm in agreement as well with MQ pushing his courses and his mentorship crap trap.  I mean, isn't that not allowed here anyway?  Also on a side note John, way to go on that lead you're workin' on.  Did you say 190k net?  Very nice indeed.  Your a beast dude!  Keep us posted when that closes.

i am no moral authority on anything.  nor am i upset.  i am not sure how many names u have had b4 Chunky but u have not been around here long enough to comment on someone's history here.  you sound like a kid with a fantasy that found a rei board.  i do not care who has a valid point, John in NC should take this up with the mods, and keep it off the forums.  if MQ is a fraud I can care less.  and furthermore MQ thinks John in NC is John Locke, aka $Cash$.  wrong person.  this thread has become a pi$$ing contest as I said before.

they are not debating.  John in NC is trying to call MQ out, that is hardly a debate.

[chunkoftheearth]

Tony says: if MQ is a fraud I can care less.  and furthermore MQ thinks John in NC is John Locke, aka $Cash$.  wrong person

Chunk says: LOL.  That was hilarious!  Probably the only thing we both agree with, but true.  As you know Tony, I disagree with most of everything you said in this topic.  Once MQ puts his http on, he's fair game.  I thought any self promotion on this board was something that was discouraged.  Even if it wasn't, discussion boards in general (among other things) are suppose to provoke thought.  I think when someone comes on, and is challenged on what they say, this is a benefit for everyone to see that you might not see in the everyday investor environment.  I don't see many topics ever started by Tony.  But I see a lot of complaining.  I see a lot of grumpiness.  If they are debating, you see it as a fight.  The mods up until this point disagree with you too because the topic has been kept there for everyone.  Heck, even MQ isn't debating that point!

Hopefully I can contribute something to the community though.

Wow Cool Course

[ggopal]

Dear Mr. Medemar,

My name is Gopal. I am from Denver, Colorado. I have purchased many courses. Alas, I have been kicking the tires for a long time and did not put the courses into use. So, I cannot blame anyone but, myself.

However, having said that, I have learned a valuable lesson in purchasing courses. I need references. If a guru is not willing to provide references, then they are suspect in my opinion.

Right now, I am unemployed, bankrupt and broke. But, I would really like to get one course and put it into action, so that I can pay my utility bills in the next 30 days. I have just about $100 and some change left and I am willing to bet on your course.

The telephone numbers listed on your website does not work.
I tried to call a couple of the references listed on the website. But, I could not contact them.
I have sent you email requesting 3 references with contact information. I really would like to talk to some references who have bought your wholesaling course and find out about your product before committing my last $$$$ ...

I am willing to risk it ... Are you willing to provide me with references, please?

I really want to learn the wholesaling business and creating the buyer's list etc. I have no money to do big marketing etc ... and I want to improve my cashflow in the next 30 days.

Thanks,
-- Gopal

Gopal,
The best thing you can do for the moment to pay your utility bills in the next 30 days is to get a job.  By the time you order this course, look over it, fumble around with trying to do something REI related, find a property, find a buyer, and get that property to close - you utilities will be shut off. 
Best to stabilize your personal finances with a paycheck you can count on for now and then focus on studying  and executing REI related activities on the side.

[ggopal]

Thanks a lot Justin. Your advise is sound. You see, Justin, I am also going thru a divorce and a bitter custody battle. I have lost everything. The best part of having nothing is that no one can take anything away from you. There is nothing to take.

I am actively looking for a job as well. I am not having much luck in the technology field.

However, I know that it takes some time to get the cash buyer's list etc going. I stumbled on Eric's course.

I would like to know if you have any experience using his course materials. I tried calling him to ask him some questions, but the phone does not work.

I would like to get something REI related going.

What is your opinion of Eric Medemmar's course? Why do you think he is not responding?

ggopal,

If you've purchased many courses already why don't you put them in drive and give em gas before going out purchasing yet another course, especially with your last few bucks?

It's clear that the problem isn't the course...the problem is YOU'RE not taking action. Buying yet another course to take up space in your closet won't solve that problem. The best course in the world is absolutely useless if you don't start doing what the course says to do. And on the flip side, the worst course out there is probably good enough to make you SOME money if you just go and DO what the guru says.

[ggopal]

You are absolutely right. I did not take proper action. Well, I was not focusing on 1 strategy and making it work. I was trying to do it all and that plan failed. So, I have not been doing anything.

I tried the most difficult strategy as a newbie and got discouraged easily and gave up. But, that's in the past.

Anyway, I have learnt my lesson. I want to do only 1 thing in REI. Wholesaling... so I am going to work on doing just that. I need a starting point for building my buyer's list.

I don't have a clue. Maybe, I should invest the money and get the course and just do according to what EricM says ... I can't be any worse off than I am right now.

It would have been nice if he could at least give me his contact information, so that I could talk to him before getting his course.

Thanks for the input,
Gopal

[nsu1997]

I understand, believe me. I still don't advise that you go spend your last on yet another course, especially seeing how easy the wholesaling process is. I'd bet you already have a wholesaling course in your stash of courses.

Some on here may disagree with what I'm about to say but forget about building a buyers list for now. Go get a deal under contract and trust me you'll find a buyer if it's truly a good deal. When you say you need to build a buyers list (or worse yet buy yet another course) what I'm really hearing you say is "what can I do to make myself feel busy like I'm actually wholesaling instead of actually going out finding deals & making offers?"

Not to take any glory away from Eric Medemar but you can get a brand new updated "post-real-estate-crash" wholesaling course for $1. Check my signature for more info. The pitch is when you sign up you're enrolled in a $59/mo investing club (which is actually worth it if you're a newbie) but you can simply cancel it before your first payment is due if that money is an issue. Either way you get the course absolutely free. I'm an affiliate of the program. Just trying to help.

If I were you here's exactly what I'd do:

1. get the $1 course, write down an action plan based on it
2. TAKE ACTION, making a mess in the process
3. get better
4. do a deal
5. do a couple more deals
6. get trained to learn how to implement more real estate investing strategies like sub-2, short sales, etc.

I wished I read your message in June. I am just getting into the real estate game and in need of a mentor (free).

lol.

Happy Investing

It looks like I better step up to the plate here and take my kicks like a big boy.  I do apologize.

Near as I can tell all of my phone numbers work... That said I've got 90+ Domains and countless pages that I don't even know about anymore.

Just so we're clear PM me and I will give you my contact info   I handle 40 50 calls a day between my wholesaling business and my training business so you'll need to leave a message.

The same thing is likely true for the emails.  My old email address which I planned on keeping forever is no longer functioning and it won't allow me to bounce back emails that don't go through.

I didn't respond because I just hadn't been to the forums in a while, but that's no excuse.


All that said, I don't think any course is going to work if you don't use it.  If there is one, then please let me know because I need some time off.

I'm not some fancy guru.  I'm not even too smart really.  I know how to do real estate and that's about it.

I basically sat down and talked about all that I've learned over the years about real estate.  My newest course is nearly 20 hours of audio and it's all me talking in my car while I'm out looking at houses.

There's no substitute for experience, but it does help to have a framework to hang all of your knowledge on.

I tell my students to take out a pen and paper then write down everything that you know about wholesaling.  This helps prevent being overwhelmed about all that you need to learn and helps you hone in on the exact areas that you will need help with.

Otherwise it's extremely easy to get overwhelmed, when in fact most people already know what they need to do, they just don't know it.  Ahhh... The great paradox of life and money.

If you're a rookie and just getting started I would suggest you do the same.  Then once you've seen where your weak areas are you can bring them up to speed and start doing deals.

Chuck. 

You're correct it does make for an interesting debate.

As a guy who chose to enter the public realm I welcome all critisim.  And most certainly have my share of past.  I also know that ones character is displayed by  the individuals actions not what one says. Willy may not have learned that yet.

For the record.  I believe if memory serves me that at one point I owed close to 1 million in taxes. For the record.  Paying taxes suck.

As for whether owing taxes means I don't know what I teach about. That's like saying Willie Nelson can't sing or Wesley snipes can't act. Its stupid.    Well heck my next book will be titled.  Your uncle is not your friend. 

However.  Since John n NC thinks I don't know crap I will do the following.

I will take on the next 5 mentees for free.   No split no fee.   You get me for free. 8 weeks of training.

All you have to do is shoot me a PM.  Once were done come back and let little willy know what it was like.   

Happy house hunting.
Michael

Hey Mike have your found your 5 yet?
