An inside look as to what is happening in the real estate industry.

Real-Estate Investors Should Beware of Scams

Make a million dollars in real estate now! No money down! No-risk offer!

Maybe you’ve heard these come-ons, or similar ones, offering you the chance to learn how to become a real estate investing millionaire? One primary reason that real-estate investments attract newcomers is that debt is an accepted tool for doing business. Thus, you can get into the business with no money down. These high-volume, low-brow pitches are common from promoters of real estate investing seminars.

  1. The first part usually is a goal-setting exercise.
  2. The middle part gives some information about what could be done but not how to do it.
  3. At the end, it all leads to having to take more expensive — $3,000 to $5,000 — seminars and boot camps to receive the actual hands-on experience you need, suggesting that if you didn’t take it, you would fail.

But not all real-estate investing seminars are a bad bet. Indeed, many will help you learn about the business of investing and can be a worthwhile place to start, experts say. How can you tell the good from the bad?

Savvy would-be investors should take their time developing their knowledge of the real estate industry and shouldn’t look to get rich overnight. The number of seminars offered to would-be real estate investors has exploded along with the booming real estate market. Public seminars may be fine for an introduction to investing, but clearly the business of real estate investing can’t be learned in just a few days. The skills it takes to be successful in real estate take years to accumulate, such as the skills of a Professional Realtor.

A hint from the Federal Trade Commission: 1. Take your time. 2. Don’t be rushed into buying anything at a seminar. 3. Avoid high-pressure sales pitches that require you to buy now or risk losing out on the opportunity.

Remember, solid opportunities are not sold through nerve-racking tactics.

"Being in escrow, I find that I am very particular and appreciate folks that take extra time and effort to go the extra mile to be sure everything is done correctly.

He leaves nothing to chance, asks great questions, carefully reviews his buyer and seller settlement statements, attends his buyer and seller signing appointments, he is very responsive to all phone calls and follows up on all aspects of his transactions.
