BNB Investor Academy Review

BNB Investor Academy Review

Realtor · Hull, MA · Member since 2022 · 4 posts · 10 votes

I enrolled in BNB Investor Academy with high hopes of gaining in-depth knowledge and skills in managing short-term rental properties. However, my experience with the program significantly differed from what was initially promised.

One of my primary concerns was the issue of missed classes. Despite the program's commitment to providing a comprehensive educational experience, several scheduled sessions were not conducted as promised, which I found disappointing and detrimental to the learning process.

Furthermore, after expressing my concerns about these missed sessions and requesting a refund, I encountered an unexpected and distressing response. I was blocked from accessing the program's materials, coaching sessions, and support network. This action, in my opinion, further complicated the situation and impeded my ability to leverage the resources I had paid for.

Based on these experiences, I would urge potential participants to be cautious and thoroughly research before committing to this program. While the concept of the program might be appealing, my personal experience raises concerns about the consistency and reliability of the services offered. It's important for customers to be aware of these potential challenges and consider them when making a decision.

    What was the training supposed to train you on?

    Was it live training or recordings?

    Thank you for coming here to give write your experience. Sorry this happened to you. With lot more gurus coming online everyday and posting videos in Instagram, we fall for their prey. It is so hard to find what they offer and do they keep up their promise until you pay and be in their program.

    Sorry to hear that. 

    Hopefully you didn't invest too much money into it.

    Reviews like this are great, but I always feel like there are two sides that should be shared. Unfortunately, that's not always possible.

    I'm sorry to hear! I have only taken 1 program in STR world when I first started, but I do get a lot of ads for them. I just don't agree with what a lot of them are pushing or advertising...

    1. The BNB Investor Academy's program claims to train in managing profitable short-term rental properties. This included strategies for locating, investing in, and effectively managing such properties. The program comprised both digital content and coaching sessions.
    2. Initially priced at $10,000, the program fee was reduced to $9,000 due to some sessions not being conducted as planned (red flag).

    An important aspect of the program was its emphasis on networking - a critical element for success in real estate. Regrettably, after voicing concerns and requesting a refund, my access to these valuable networking opportunities and program resources was restricted. This limitation significantly impacted the overall educational value and potential benefits of the program.  

    My intention in sharing this information is to educate potential consumers about the value proposition of such programs. It's crucial to be aware that much of the information provided might be available through other sources, such as YouTube, often at no cost. In my case, I found myself unsatisfied with the program shortly after beginning it. I sought a refund early in the process, but my efforts were met with challenges, including being restricted from accessing the content for which I had paid. This experience underlines the importance of carefully evaluating the unique benefits of any educational program, especially when similar resources might be available elsewhere for a significantly lower cost.

    Thank you for sharing this. Your experience echoes many of the concerns we encountered as well.

    We also enrolled based on specific promises about the structure and level of access, and what was delivered differed significantly from what was represented during enrollment. When we raised concerns and attempted to resolve the situation directly, communication became limited and resolution was not forthcoming.

    We agree that prospective participants should ask very detailed questions in advance and get clear, written confirmation about what is included, how sessions are delivered, and how concerns are handled if expectations are not met. Transparency and follow-through are essential in programs like this, and unfortunately our experience also raised concerns in those areas.

    We appreciate you speaking up so others can make informed decisions.
