"Just got a great deal on a short sale. It was in escrow at $290k but fell out so I offered $260k on the short sale and they took it. We closed in 56 days from the offer. We are looking to put $36K into in and put on market for $465. Should be 3-4 weeks and no permits needed. We bought it right, at 64% QRV both purchase and repairs, just like you showed us. Will make over $70k on this one. Tanks for everything!"

"I've known Alexis McGee for 15 plus years, when she took a little foreclosure listing reporting service (Daily Default Infoservice) to the industry standard. She is not only a business women who bootstrapped a struggling business to the top, she is also an innovator and industry leader. I’ve been around a hundred years and watched many gurus come and go, Alexis is the keeper who stays with the trails of business and makes other people’s lives better and richer."

"I started with 2 other gurus ... I got more information from your course in 1 week, than 10 weeks with either Dean or Cameron. Your course at 5% the cost blew them out of the water. In the first 2 short months since I started with your programs here are my results: 1st deal paid $49,000, worth $78,000, assigned to an investor for quick $10,000. 2nd deal paid $102,000, $25,000 rehab, resale $200,000, net profit $40,000. 3rd deal assigned to an investor for $13,500, with only 5 hours into it. This year I have done over $50,000 in assignments and 4+ fast rehabs. Most recently: REO: Paid $215,000 (list $275,000), rehab $60,000, sold for $369,000 quick. Financed with 50-50 partner private money. We each made $30,000! REO: Fixed and Sold in less than 120 days. Financed 50-50 with money partner. Made $36,000. Pre-Foreclosure : Paid $210,000, $130,000 first, $80,000 rehab, $400,000 resale over $60,000 profit. NEW: Pre-Foreclosure: Paid $122,500, subject to $111,500 first, $15,000 rehab, $225,000 resale, borrowed $25,000 from private lender at 12%, I keep all the profits - Over $40,000! MY WORDS OF WISDOM: Alexis’ 7-step system and strategy session calls are really great! The manual with all of its links is truly fantastic. Any investor like myself would be crazy not to have her course. Listen to Alexis. I am finding deals and private money. What she teaches works!!! "

"I am a retired counselor from a small business network, retired Army Reserves and part time associate pastor with a small church. I needed to add income to my small retirement and started with Alexis’s homestudy and strategy webinars, from a referral who had recommended her content as accurate, step by step and top notch (not fluff like the rest). My favorite part of the course was how to properly work the numbers to assure a 15% profit. I am so happy with my results. Working part time with your programs here are my results: 1st Deal was a Pre-Foreclosure found on Foreclosures.com, paid $92,000, took loans subject to (used my credit cards for the arrears and closing costs), did repairs for $15,000, on the market for 24 hours and sold for $155,000. Made $35,000 profit. 2nd deal was a REO found on Foreclosures.com, paid $74,000, financed with private money and $12,000 down (used my credit card again), did repairs for $11,000. Estimated Sales Price $125,000-$130,000. Profit estimated $35,000. MY WORDS OF WISDOM: You will learn all the tips and tricks of the trade by simply using Alexis’ homestudy and strategy calls information right away. It will take years and tens of thousands of dollars to match the learning curve of what you will learn with Alexis’ course. Mistakes are the highest price tuition there is. Listen to Alexis, what she teaches works! You will make money! "

"I’ve retired from Silicon Valley Corporate America and I can’t thank you enough. Here is what I’ve done in the last 2 years since Foreclosures Lab: 16 deals with profits ranging from $5,000-$30,000 (assignments) to $38,000-$145,000 (fix and flips) using outside private investor monies to fund it all. Total Profits to Date: $750,000. Thank you! I couldn't have done it without you and your amazing team! More Detail"

"I want to thank you and all your coaches who have been part of my education process. I just got my first preforeclosure deal. This will be a good one. It’s a 2030 sq. ft. 4 BR 2.5BA and I’m buying it for $302,500 and it will sell for around $475,000. I'm working with another Lab and coaching grad Dean Higa (introduced from my Coach Daryl). We’re budgeting $40,000 for remodel, giving us a $60,000+ profit. I raised the money for this deal from one of my investors, plus Dean. You've really created a wonderful network. I always had a desire to learn how to buy low and sell high. When I heard about you and your buying formula I really had my doubts as to whether it was really possible to buy houses for 50 or 60 cents on the dollar. I wanted to believe it but all my friends said I was crazy to I just gave up. I have really been slow in taking the kind of action that I’m taking now. Had I just listened to you in the very beginning, I would have been buying houses regularly a lot sooner. I’m doing exactly what you said to do in lab. I got this deal from knocking on the owner’s door. I’ve been a real estate broker and or investor most of my adult life. When the apartment market crashed with the tax law of 1986 and I decided to turn my hobby of ballroom dancing into a business. I eventually built what was to become the largest ballroom dancing club and school in the U.S. I ran the business for 17 years. In 2003 decided to get back into real estate brokerage and investing. I got my license again and basically have been brokering houses for a living ever since. I must say that after this deal, brokering for a living does not even appeal to me anymore. I’d much rather have 15% profit than a 2.5% commission. Thanks again for everything you do... "

"I have been busy, bought two properties this year (both beach rentals in Surfside TX - a new market for me) and they are doing great thus far. When I get my cashflow from properties up to between $8k and $10k, I will quit my "real" job. that is the plan anyway."

"Just FYI, I spoke for an extended period with your securities based lender speaker in the Money Lab last Monday. He is exceptionally knowledgeable in his field, and I hope to do business with him. I’ve referred two of my clients to him also. Good connection, thank you!"

"The raising money class was eye opening the first day... Super job by both presenters (Sarah Garlick and Michal Ballard). Anyone who missed this class clearly missed the boat."
Jon Landers Santa Clara, CA

 

"Yes, raising private money lab was a great class. I was glad that I made the decision to attend. I met and talked with a number of wonderful new people and I learned a lot. I came home feeling energized. I just hope I can maintain that feeling on a daily basis just like Coach Sarah does. After the class was over, I sat with Sarah and a few other classmates and I heard her say that every morning she wakes up and she says to herself "what am I going to buy today". Wow, what a mind set. I love it. Her and Coach Michal give off such great energy. They have a passion for what they do. That is something that you can't script. It is just there. Very much looking forward to the Money Mastermind Meetings. Thanks again for your continued support. It means a lot to me. "

"I just want to tell you that last nights strategy session call was a real winner... As an experienced investor I got alot out of the call and learned several new things when making calls and prospecting leads. I am going to use them starting today... thanks so much."

"What an interesting few months... I bought at the auction a little over 2 months ago and I have learned a LOT! Thank goodness I took your auction lab and mastermind group because this would never have worked without you! I bought the house for 1 penny over at the auction using the bidder from the hard money lender, I actually went to auction to watch and met the bidder. Wow! So exciting. I spent 3 weeks rehabbing the project with hired help and learned more about who to use for what job and how to find and negotiate with skilled workers. I was able to work out a lot of the kinks and streamline my rehab process. I also found I needed to stay on top of each job and let all the rehabbers know that I would be on site and very involved. I also learned that Real Estate agents are not necessarily your friend in this business... My agent orginally listed the house at the high end of the comps, this made me a little uncomfortable but she convinced me that the house would sell. After a week I realized that she was trying to protect her commission because we had zero solid interest. I directed the agent to drop the price and she was sort of difficult about it.. I noticed it wasn't changed on the MLS the next day. So I emailed her the directive and she changed it. I also asked her to raise the commission for the buyer agent and then we started getting phone calls. I got a ridiculous offer from an investor; all cash, but 14 grand under, we negotiated and we met in the middle on the price! That was fun!! I also bargained for a 2 week escrow which closes on Monday. Well that is how my first deal went, thought you might enjoy hearing about it! I want to continue to learn and earn while investing in Real Estate! I owe so much to you, Sarah as well as Alexis and the rest of the crew! I never would have been able to achieve all this without you and your instruction.. I would have made so many mistakes and I am sure the results would not have been the same, because I would not have learned the tools I needed to solve the distractions that I ran into while doing my first deal! Thank you So Much!"

"Christine and I are both full time pharmacists. We work opposite shifts to balance our young children and work. We have been very busy the last few months; our second baby was born on May 5th. We have been searching for both Pre-Foreclosures and REOs in our area. We finally found a REO agent who will work with us and gets what we do and not say “too low and the bank will never look at it”. She has bought us our second deal. Thanks to your spreadsheet it was easy to come up with an offer to the bank that made sense. It was originally listed for $74,000, then $69,000. Our agent got the bank to reduce the price (the listing agent was in the same office) to $58,000 and they accepted our offer. Plus the bank repaired the landscape and plumbing for us before closing. We did a cosmetic rehab for $14,000. Your numbers for budgeting for the rehab was also spot on (our excel budget was $15,000). We have instant equity of $27,000. Our first deal was an assignment that we paid $64,000 plus put $30,000 in rehab. We sold it under a lease option agreement with it cash flowing at $754/month. Once they exercise their $125,000 option we will have $31,000 profit plus a years’ worth of income. It is our goal to buy 4 wholesale deals “the Alexis way” a year, hold it for positive cash flow and in 5 years have enough income so we can quit our jobs and become full time investors. We are confident we will hit this goal thanks to your Lab and Daryl’s coaching. I can’t thank you both enough. "

"Busy with properties in Florida (27) ... all rent and hold with great cash flow. Thank you, for everything."

"On vacation in Maine, buying my 3rd and 4th rental remotely. Prices are low and rents are rising; mtg rates still low. I'm buying! Thanks to you and Michal!"

"As you know, I was looking for a deal in Berkeley, for a rental for our son at the university. I found a Pre-foreclosure and we are under contract. Worth $595K, buying $337K with $50K in repairs (35% below market purchase and repairs). Original TS was in June but extended until Aug. This long distance stuff is a bit tougher but is fun. I am also under contract on a REO with 4 rooms for $240k purchase, worth $400k and only needs carpet, 40% below market... another great deal. Thank you!!!"

"I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Mike Ballard for the past year. I attended Mike's "Apartment Lab" and was impressed with his knowledge, intelligence, and sincere care for the success of the student investors in his lab. I subsequently signed up to have Mike as a coach, and life has never looked the same! A genius with numbers and property acquisition, I have seen Mike put together deals that draw investors like magnets! Not only does he put the deals together, he is "hands-on" throughout the process, mentoring, teaching and modeling. I am currently involved with Mike on an apartment project, a project that I found while under Mike's tutelage. Integrity is Mike's middle name, and I have watched him work in the best interest of his investors and for the clients he serves. Mike is, as my kids say, "for real!" He is fun, funny and and possesses an incredible business mind! I have learned so much about business and life from Mike and feel blessed to call him a friend!"
Karen Kane Cypress, CA

 

"We have been very busy the last few months... we also closed on another property June 17th that we bought from a bank. We are just finishing up the rehab and plan to rent it out. I am looking forward to your webinar tonight on Raising Private Money as I do not plan to use conventional financing in the future, that is if I can help it. Thanks to your lab spreadsheet it was easy to come up with an offer to the bank that made sense. Your numbers for budgeting for the rehab was also spot on."
Jan Engelbrecht La Quinta, CA
