The model just described is a model of and a recipe for disaster.Leverage used wisely is a tool and should not be looked at as the boogeyman...All opinions expressed above are just mine; while eating lunch and pondering Life... :)

I can express how grateful I am for you’re transparency thru your struggles on your first deal.

I am in KS and I used real estate express; finished in less than a week took the test immediately and had my license in less than a month after starting the course.If you do all the training you should be good to go on your test.

I actually just finished Real Estate Express and I personally wouldn't recommend it.

However, as a property manager that ends up having to take care of the issues in tough areas, I can not express how much I wish these buyers would move just a little upstream.  

The Express Carwash biz is once again a unique niche as it only requires 3 to five employees and is cash inserted into machine, credit or debit so employees don't have any personal contact with any cash.

After the walk through they both expressed that I shouldn't buy this place and that it was a lot of work. 

I also like to see all those figures expressed as a percentage of its gross income per month).

I'm inclined to recommend a change.... or, at least, expressing your concerns to your agent, if you haven't already.

I recently encountered a situation that left me feeling taken advantage of and deeply disappointed.Upon expressing my reservations about the steep cost of their course $8k,  I was pressured into signing an agreement by their representative.
