Kris Krohn experience?

Question

I have heard some buzz around Kris Krohn & RE investing. Does anyone have experience working with him and his team or know someone who has?

I'm sorry that happened to you. Did you sign a contract that has details of what the partnership agreement stated for your $18,000? I would guess if it says "no refunds for any reason" or similar language, you're out of luck. Did you actually buy any properties in this program?

If you want to DM me the details and not post this publicly on the forum, you can DM me.

I would suggest filing a complaint with BBB or the FTC. If either organization got enough complaints from people, I hope they would do an investigation.

I got on a call with his team around 2022. Their program at that time cost $18,000. Theoretically you would partner with Kris and his team of "experts" would help you analyze a market, find a property, make offers, etc. All of this information you could find for free by networking and investigating the market and property yourself. The idea was to hold the property for around 7 to 8 years then sell it. They would take 50% of the equity from the sale (since they're handholding you through the process).

It's a very high pressure sales call. The guy kept saying, "I'm afraid you'll fail if you try to do deals on your own, etc"  Then he tried to pitch me a less expensive program of $10,000. They won't take a polite no for an answer so I had to be really firm and tell him, "NO. I'M NOT INTERESTED" (almost yell at him) then I hung up.

If you look up his name, he was involved in some type of SEC investigation.

I wouldn't pay any money to any of these social media gurus for any coaching/mentorship/partnership program None of these gurus can guarantee any of their claims and they aren't going to refund your money if you don't do a successful deal. Use the $18k towards part of a down payment on a property or adding value to a current property.

Hi @Becca F.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like you trusted your intuition at the right time and kept your $18K available for something with stronger ROI.

I also had a call with Kris’s team back in 2022. Kris even sent me a personalized video message about “partnering” with me, referencing specific goals I’d shared with one of his team members. After investing the $18K to join, I never heard from him again and ended up as one of hundreds of participants on weekly group calls—far from the 1:1 partnership he described.

After three denied refund attempts, my heart sank. That mix of disappointment, shame, and embarrassment really stuck with me—but I’m now channeling it into connecting with others so we can be smarter together when evaluating mentorships and influencer programs.
