Carlton Sheets Real Estate
Course Review
"Can
The Average Person, Buy, Flip And Rent Properties And Actually Make
Money?"
I bought into the real estate No Money Down
concept back in 1996. It started with the Carlton Sheets No Money Down
System which was a series of cassettes work
books and Cd's, I think it
cost 2 or 3 hundred bucks. Shortly after receiving the course I was
contacted and by a representative selling me on the Carlton Sheets
coaching system. It was so long ago that I'm not sure what it even cost
anymore, but I think it was about $1,500.
Once a week I would have a phone mentoring
session where we would set my goals, go through a training module and
set the weeks assignments. I remember being excited and thought this
was going to be it, my way out of the rat race. Looking back, boy was I
young and naive.
The fundamentals of Carlton Sheets course
were to look for distressed and foreclosed properties and solve the
owners problems with a creative financing solution. The concept seemed
solid and I went to work.
The
results were mixed, the motivation and mentoring definitely helped me
buy my first house which was a foreclosure but it really wasn't worth
much more than I paid for it and I never did find anyone willing to
accept my creative financing offers using Carlton Sheets Techniques.
The time investment was pretty intense,
driving around looking for distressed properties, interviewing Real
Estate agents and pulling property records from the court houses. All
business take time, but lets face it, if this was a slam dunk most Real
Estate agents would be millionaires because they would most certainly
be using the same concepts themselves.
Looking back I'm sure that I know more than
a few people who bought into one of Carlton Sheets courses, most just
won't admit it and probably still have the course sitting somewhere in
their house full of dust.
If you
have a decent amount of time and cash to work with, the course will
certainly teach you how to find the right houses. As for buying houses
with Carlton Sheets No Money Down and creative financing principals, I
put it to the test when the Real Estate market was just beginning to
explode and didn't have much success.
The Real Estate market is a long term
investment for most who can find the right property and rent it out for
10-15 years, pay down the mortgage and eventually sell it for profit.
The quick cash in flipping properties is a RISKY investment. I have
know many people who have put a ton a work into a property to flip it
for a profit and ended up just breaking even after months of work.
In the end there is some good information in
the Carlton Sheets courses, but I would not advise it for the average
person looking to start a business or produce a part time income.

at what is working well for me. I have reviewed and been involved with
countless home businesses and this was a slam dunk. It's not
right for everyone, but who knows, it may be what your looking for.
