Do I buy a book or use a company?
I am just starting out in this buz. I figure bird-dogging and wholesaling are the ways to start although I am much more interested to holding RE long term as a land lord. I see many books on this web site that claim to teach you bird-dogging and wholsaling. I also know of a company based in new NJ called "Renvoate America" they say they will train you personally how to find tyhem deals. You can start as a bird-dog and when they like you you they will eventually loan you hard money to rehab you own deals. Initially they charge you 750.00 for their teaching manual and once you find the 1St property they give it back. Does anyone out there no about this company? Are they a good way to start or am better off just buying John Lock's and Scott Rister books and going it alone?
stephen that price sounds pretty steep to me just so you can learn their system and find them deals. There is no way I can say enough about John $Cash$ Lockes Subject To manual. It is so simple it's scary. I do not have any personal experience with Scott Rister although I have heard only good things about him. his courses and the content of the material. As far as goig it alone, a long as you are willing to post your questions here like you just have, you will never be alone. We all have a vested interest in each others success and failures. How else can we learn and overcome the obstacles we find on our way to prosperity? Try to keep things simple and uncluttered in your mind. Try to avoid the dreaded analysis paralysis mode. Keep posting and Happy Investing! Brett
