@Gilbert Dominguez If one prefaces that the basic 'premise' of certain 'groups' today is indeed: "scam or be scammed..." then the whole "do as thou wilt, is the whole of the law" faux reality paradigm 'system' soon begins, to take shape. Then factor- in the Temple BAR 'legalese,' UCC and Crown livery "corportization" with their post 1945 UNitization of front facade subsidiary "nation states and territories" (and that there are no more "sovereign countries," save the remaining few still without a PTB "central bank...") and a BIGGER PICTURE 'insight' then begins, to EMERGE. Meanwhile, "scamming people" seems to be the "new norm" for those who are to foolish to "live by the Golden Rule..." and think that "he who owns the gold, makes the rules." (e.g. Late period Babylon, or Rome 2.0.) Funny how "acquisitive eras" never seem to LAST even 300 years... then are somehow ALWAYS followed by "warrior eras." Basic LAW of 'physics...' Just sayin' ;-)

Ross Hamilton (or whatever this nasal tone, sleazy little self described: "ex dumpster diver's" real name is?) has to be a "front man" for someone else. When I signed- up for CI two years ago or so, the ONLY person I was able to contact there more than once, and get ANY QnA 'resolution' from, was their "tech guy." All one need do is listen to (as hard as that IS... with that annoying VOICE!) Ross talk about how his software is "so revolutionary..." and the analogous endorsements of his "wonder wares," to conclude that this guy is about as "smarmy" as they come... The kind of salesman you'd expect to encounter on a used car lot, reselling defective cars auctioned for a grand, listed for $4995.00 OBO at only 30% interest.
It would be one thing if this self- proclaimed "tech company" was just using people as "deal dogs," then "skimming the best deals," or taking say 50- 80%... but apparently they aren't CONTENT with a "one trick pony" scam, so just have to run several, at once. (And the "deal finder software" scam seems to be the HOTTEST "smoke and mirror" fogger, of the moment. Either that, or the "hot prequalified leads" gig, where they skim- off the cream from the results you just paid FAR to much for!) Rule of thumb: If they SOUND LIKE a "better buy now, before the door closes" artificial scarcity model peddler, then better take it for a click tunnel "test drive," and ALWAYS maintain defacto "veto power," via potential charge- back!!! ;-)

@Rashida Sigmond You're welcome. :-)
BTW, I went ahead and signed- up for the "30 day free trial" of REI PRO, but haven't spent much time on the site, just yet. The one challenge I see thus far for me personally, is the several years passe' FOCUS on (mainly using) "direct mail," which is ranked no. "10" on my (2018) marketing and advertising strategy list. I do really like their "step by step" ten point sequential plan of action with the integrated CRM, deal structuring, vs. only using say "wholesaling," "lease purchase," or "seller financing" as a singular (and thereby LIMITED) approach, and I will soon utilize ALL of them and more (like Chris Goff, Joe Crump, Ron LeGrand, etc.) but will mainly stick to doing (in, then OUT!) 'paper flip' lease options and seller financing deals, for now... until AFTER the next 'market correction.' (i.e. Perhaps by 2020ish (?) when it's once again a BUYERS vs. SELLERS market... and gaining control "subject to," via a "sandwich LO," or securing "owner financing" again makes more (flexibility, profitability) SENSE... for say the next half decade +/-.)

@ Neil Ward
It looks like your 'local' Neil. Chris mentioned that they are having a training seminar this September, in Atlanta, if you are doing lease options? I may fly there if I have the time then, as he goes into more advanced strategies, he said under the above mentioned video in a YT reply to me yesterday, under my comment there. Apparently that's their only remaining "live event" for LOs in 2018? And no I don't know Chris or Bo... and I'm not an REI PRO 'member,' yet. Maybe I'll call their office and inquire about the questions in this thread, since they haven't been on it, to date. And it sounds like at least a half dozen of us are potentially interested in "going- in" as a "team..." then it comes down to data privacy, so that is my main question. That said, $89. divided by three for 90- days, sure sounds more appealing to me presently, than 3x that!?

Since neither Chris or Bo "chimed- in" on this (despite my email, on their website...) it does look like they do "isolate, team members" even with the "basic" membership plan, as I just saw on the following YT video, at about 15:15 mins. into it. : "How to Lease Option Real Estate without Money or Credit Part 3 of 3" on the "Chris Goff' YouTube channel. So who's IN after I start my "30 day free trial" for approx. June 1st? You get a discount paying 'quarterly,' so $267.00 divided by 2 is $133.50, or by three people is $89.00, or 33$ a month, vs. 3x that. I don't think it's fair to the developers to go below $33.00 a month (with four or five people) considering everything we'll gain access to. ATB :-) Scott

@Minas Dovlatian It depends upon the type(s) of leads, and the funds to invest... but look at: REI PRO, ($89./mo.) the Push Button Auto Marketer, ($1k.) the new one on Connected Investors ($1500.) and there are several others, but they aren't as comprehensive. REI PRO seems to be the best value for finding leads, and it's a complete "1- 10 step" process roadmap, will call scripts, etc. I intend to "sign- up for" myself, here shortly. Then there's everything from ReboGateway, to Ron LeGrand's VA services... but for prelim analysis, you get a "thirty day free trial' of REI PRO, for no investment, which is actually enough time to familiarize oneself with the software, unlike many "free trails!" (That said, the quarterly billing thereafter isn't cheap, for new customers.)

Hi all, I'd also be potentially interested in either a 5 person ($89.00 a month = $17.80 each with 5 users) or a 10 way split ($129.00 a month = $12.90 each, with 10 users) IF the data is PRIVATE for individual "team" members? Is anyone here familiar with how REIPRO is configured? I suspect it's more than likely as described, a "team" effort, with a shared work group CRM, etc.??? I've also viewed several of Chris Goff and Bo Manry's videos on YouTube, and they really have their act (and strategies) together. Chris also appears to be very transparent, ethical and knowledgeable, and has now been in the business now, for two decades. (Since 1998.) I'm going to do the "30 day trial" soon, either way! ATB :-) Scott
Their website states: "For Home Businesses and Soloprenuers." And: "For Small Businesses and Teams" for the 89$ and 129$ packages. For reference, see: myreipro.com /pricing but I suspect someone will need to CALL them to verify how it actually works, in practice. :-)

Q: "I think that agents and investors each have there purpose and they each have there own clients that they serve best. Investors can typically help distressed sellers and homeowners with very little equity better than agents can. Investors offer options that agents normally don’t. But I think homeowners can be best served by a investor who is also a agent that way they can offer what both sides have to offer..." UnQ.
AGREED. For now the public at large and businesses indeed need BOTH... and this is WHY I'm attempting to WORK WITH "the other side" of the Roman coinage, even if all the "gold" (money) today resides at the BIS, or buried under some 'hill,' in Rome? (And/ or a temple on the Thames, etc., along with the REAL 'certificates,' vs. what they hand- out as say 'deeds.' But I'm (seemingly) getting, "off- topic?!" WELCOME to the 215 UN "nation states and territories," reinc. ;-)

@Storm S. The main difference is what I mentioned above... if a (potential) seller with less than say 20% equity needs to get OUT of a 'distressed' situation (or even simply needs to relocate,etc.) then that is ONLY doable (for approx. 7- 10 million households nationwide, presently?) working with an REI, etc. who knows HOW to legally, and ethically help them out of the equation. The so- called conventional (and now 90% 'monopolized') "system" takes an additional 10% or more, as you know. And Cede & Company now owns and controls around 98% of all US (corporation) mortgages. I don't see that as PRUDENT, for ANYONE (aside from the .001%) unless they are OK with giving 10- 20% more of their "equity" over to that grossly WASTEFUL process?
And when these (duped) REI 'posers' are buy- n- holding (at/ near retail, in a seller's market, no less!) they will indeed be left "holding the bag" when the banksters NEXT "pull the rug- out..." again... as they keep getting away with doing every decade or so, like "clock work..." because of the Roman 'Crown' and 'UN' framework and legalese, etc., but that's apples, vs. oranges." The ONLY WAY LEFT to 10- 25x plus today, is to TIME the market CYCLES, using "leverage and appreciation" for max gains (and getting in and then OUT in short 10%+ gain plays) and reinvest accordingly, in emerging 'hot micro- markets!' (i.e. Whilst investing,' nationwide...')
I am VERY AGAINST their usury- centric 'SYSTEM' of ILLUSION... debt, death and taxes... and my own opinion is that one should currently be acquiring properties in an IRA and in 'trust,' so there are NO TAXES TO PAY until your 'heirs' have to deal with it. And I won't even get into how the Roman Canon, and ecclesiastical to Maritime Admiralty and UCC law, and 'trusts' work since 1933 (and post 1666) as it's so SINISTER, it's truly mind boggling. But that's the world we live- in, today! I'm about WAKING PEOPLE UP to the PTB ways and means of control, and then GAMING the game players RIGGED "house of cards," faux reality paradigm system... ;-)

Check this out, Storm: (Go to YouTube and search for: " Structuring Deals #6: Hierarchy Of Control .") This BLOWS AWAY "wholesaling..." (in a "seller's market") or any other (single option) deal structured solution. You of course want to learn one or two strategies at a time... then after several years, be utilizing multiple solutions, to truly DOVETAIL to the seller and buyer's individual needs. I planned to simply do assignable "lease options" (and mainly will to start...) however you'll have FAR more 'control' when you "get the deed, subject to the underlying loan(s)," as you know! Also check- out Alicia Cox, in your area. (She's a broker and SubTo specialist, also on YouTube, who teaches people to do what she's been doing in North LA metro east, and NYC and Florida, prior (?) for the past twentyish years.) Some more tools to ADD to your REI "toolkit!" (See also: linkedin.com /in/aliciaacox/ )
