Does anyone have any feedback on Brian Haskins wholesaling program or mentoring? I see he posts here quite often, however not recently.

I don't know him or his program, but his website has the guru appearance (again, this is opinionated at a glance).

Keep in mind that websites or advertisements which use extrordianry history of performance results are meant to excite and draw you in. That is the intent after all, to draw people in to purchase the program.

Let me answer your question with a question: If someone was really wholeslaing 5 deals every month consistantly for 5-6 years in a row, why would they even bother wasting their time to market a product to "teach you how to do the same"? If you can come up with a good answer for that, then buy it, if not, be careful.

If I were wholesaling 5 homes every month and making $5k-$15k per transaction or more, there would be no reason for me to market such a product, I would just keep wholesaling and avoid more competition.

Gosh dang Will you are taking the words right out of my mouth tonight. What he said.


Real Estate Investor · Vicksburg, Michigan


Expect email everyday and his method of aquiring private lenders was pushing toward violating SEC rules. I admit that I haven't read any of his stuff in a couple of years. I like Will's opinion to.

Doesn't Brian Haskins frequent BP? The name seems familiar


Real Estate Investor · america


Brian Haskins is acutlaly on here,go and read his posts,they speak for themselves,he's also on fb,and answers his own emails as well,im not vouching for his course or anythign of that nature,im just sayign he's on here and seems to knwo what he's talking about


Real Estate Investor · Clearwater, Florida


The reason a person would go from wholesaling to being an internet marketer is simple. They make a lot more money than that, and they make it a lot easier. There are tons of self made millionaire examples.

I know I will never be a guru. But I cant hate on what they do. They get easy cash.

They just dont get my cash, because I come to BP and get the info for free. ;-)


Real Estate Investor · Altus, Oklahoma


Find buyers
Find motivated sellers
Get property under contract
Flip contract to buyer
Get paid
Rinse and repeat

That will be $997 with $14,322.22 in bonuses.


Rehabber · Santa Clarita, California


That's only worth 97 pesos James, nice try though.

@Jimmy - Good point, but that tells me that gurus have no morals or integrity which is why I have no love for them.

By the way, I am not saying Brian is a guru or his product/service is bad or good, as I stated before, I don't know anything about it or him, I only visited his home page on his website. I also know that any information (at least a large majority of it) found in any guru or non-guru product/service can be ascertained right here on BP from experienced members for FREE.

Of note. I see Brian does contribute a fair amount here and I have seen him contributing on other sites. It is refreshing to see a coach, consultant or mentor giving to communities like this.

Real Estate Coach · St. Louis, Missouri


I saw this thread and I thought I would just address a few things.

First I still run a full time wholesaling business. The only reason I got into internet marketing is because I thought it was a great way to teach people and out of sheer boredom.

I have been blessed to be able to have a business that runs on autopilot and has for a few years now.

Do I make money selling things online yes but is it my main source of income no way.

If anyone has seen my stuff they know that what I teach is how to automate and outsource your business so it runs on complete autopilot. This is what I have done in my own business.

Its not that I gave up real estate because I wanted to just be a "guru" I didnt give up real estate at all. I do internet marketing because I enjoy teaching and giving back and why not I dont have spend all day running my business so it frees me up to do other things.

Plus who wouldnt want to make extra money?

I know there will be some people that will always be anti guru but there are some good people out there teaching stuff that is great.

I dont want to make this a long post but I just wanted to say if you have seen my stuff then you know its all about automating your real estate business so you can free up your time and do things you actually want to do and so you can enjoy the money you make.

I do what I teach and that's how I can run multiple businesses and still have time to enjoy life.


Wholesaler · Valley City, Ohio


No, but it is the easiest form of investing, I would not spend a ton on it. I have done it for years without any supernatural power teaching me the ropes. I would just look for good deals and bring the questions to bigger pockets for advice along the way. I am not soliciting you, but if you want a 10 minute rundown on how the biz works, you can contact me directly for free. I would type it, but it will take me 2 hours! LOL!!
