Im new here, and should have found this forum years ago. I just wanted to share my interaction with this company with whomever is interested. I called this company after seeing their ad in my local Craigslist here in Cincinnati. During my initial phone conversation, the 2 questions I asked pointedly were these- A. I'm under a severe time constraint and need to find a house within the next 2-3 months in a specific area. Will this program help me find a house to live in, or is this program just to help house flippers and investors? B. If I don't find a house in that time frame, can I expect a refund? The answers to both these questions was yes. After getting the instructions in my e-mail to access their website ( and after the $198 was out of my checking account on my debit card), the first hint of trouble was this- as soon as I logged onto their website one of the first things it states is that as soon as you log on to their site, you are no longer eligible for a refund!
Basically, you can find listings of "preforeclosure" houses by searching several ways, city, zip code, etc. When you find the ones listed, you send a form letter to the address using their company"S name and address, and yourself as the contact name. if anyone has the balls to call after recieving one of these form letters, I imagine the company would get the info and then inform you of the response so that you could arrange to view the house. They offer to coach you thru the whole process of negotiation with the current owners, and offer to basically hold your hand through each step until you have your dream house for pennies on the dollar.
After sending out a dozen letters and having no response, and having a very hard time getting back in touch with the company, I sent them an e-mail requestiong a refund. I was told they would review the tapes of my original phone call and if a refund was in order, I'd see it in a few days. That was 2 weeks ago. As of today, I've lodged a formal complaint with the BBB in california.
okay-now that you've read all this, I can only reiterate what has been said, but this is a more detailed personal experience you're reading
DON'T GET NEAR THIS COMPANY! THEY ARE NOTHING SHORT OF A COMPLETE RIPOFF!!!
