saw an infomericial on about a guy named Dean Graziosi and his book "Be a Real Estate Millionaire." Then there is all these people on screen telling their success stories. Have any of you ever heard of this guy or this book? Do you think it actually works and this guy knows his stuff or is just another scam for a guy to sell his book? You can google "be a real estate millioinaire" to find out more. I don't know what to think of it and wanted to know what you guys thought.

I think it's a scam to be honest...I don't believe in many infomercials.

Why don't you buy the book? then you can actually get firs hand experience if it is a scam or not. I think its best if you get opinions of people who have actually read the book. and not just one or two opinions.

I went to a seminar called "Rich Dad Poor Dad" with Robert Kiwosaki ( I didn't spell his last name correctly) I have family members who are currently in real estate and making money. It takes a lot of time and hard work and support and education. You have to really know what you are doing and the lingo otherwise you end up in debt.

At this seminar people were just buying this stuff up! I couldn't believe it he was telling them they would make $45,000 off of a house. This was after re-habing it. with only a $1500 investment. NOT TRUE! They would only really make anywhere from $10,000 to a possible $25,000 but if not sold in enough time then they will end up in debt.

If you want to know about realestate then ask someone who is currently doing what you want to do. Don't go to these seminars they will ask you for thousands of dollars and give very little support.

As a former consumer investigative reporter for Washington based Post Newsweek I also say you have to be very careful about TV promoted infomercials. This is a new guy that I have not heard of. If you really want to learn read Frank McKinney's books and he is for REAL! Been on Good Morning America numerous times. Good guy too!

I bought the book last month and it has not been much help to me. I consider myself a fairly intelligent guy who should easily comprehend his book; I just don't think that the book lives up to Dean's boasts. Most of the tactics are hypothetical, it's more of a 'Maybe you can try this, or maybe you can try that, or maybe you can combine this method with this method' type of book, which is the exact opposite of the concise, surefire book that he advertises on television. It's basically just a motivational book in my opinion. Go to Amazon.com and read some of the reviews there. Most people say the same things that I've said.

I do realestate in Idaho and have looked at lots of different programs the one that you mention is enough to interest you but very sparse in its content. There are many companies that will help you learn what you need. If you want some advice let me know. I have 3 deals in the works for the next 3 months that should yeild 20,000-45,000 each. Knowledge and determination are the most important aspects in Real Estate as well as any business and you get what you pay for, for the most part.
