Singing Pig

Hi Aldric,

Was a buy to let landlord long before buying Gregs manual but with the market rising opportunities to buy from the standard routes were non existent.  I was dubious at first but after chating to Greg in person felt reassured and finally took the plunge and bought the manual, due to various different reasons took me a few months to get leafelts and leaflet droppers sorted but followed the manual to the letter and 9 months later have bought 6 properties BMV and still have even after 10% fall in prices about 120,000 equity in the 6 properties. Used Gregs backup service several times when unsure and he has always been happy to help.

I can honestly say without buying the manual and Gregs words of encouragement I would never have ventured down this route of buying property.

Good bloke and great manual!!

Hi there

Rialto's manual is obvioulsy highly rated by everyone here!

Just a quick question - is the book based on the being able to do immediate remortgages? Most resources do still seem to be based on this principle - and as we know, this no longer possible (or as simple as it used to be). I dont want to spend money on a great book - but one which is now less relevant in the currrent environment!

Thank you!

you are confusing BMV with No Money Down (NMD).

they are not the same, but one does lead to other.

the book is based on finding BMV property by targetting those who need to sell with a simple leaflet. The fact that we had access to immediate remortgaging etc created a situation that the buyer was no longer constrained by deposits and thus, the more advertising, the more leads, the more BMV deals, the more properties bought both BMV and NMD without any restriction other than your costs of advertising.

This enabled people to take advantage of as many opportunities as they wanted to handle rather than the traditional route of 15% deposits.

this manual will get you 25% BMV leas and deals, wether you can then buy them is down to your circumstances!

I fully agree with Rik that you are confusing BMV with NMD. Gregs strategy will work in any cycle of the property market.

There will always be people who need to sell and to sell quickly. The deals are there a lot more than in the days of NMD finance and at much bigger % discounts. One can still get a mortgage with a deposit and then remortgage in 3 or 6 months time depending on the lender.

Not pointing the finger at anyone, however I feel that a lot of people lack the enthusiasm or are not willing to put in the effort to succeed so just look for excuses why it doesn't work.

Well summarised Danny and Rik

Its a 3 pronged offering ....

Firstly, what I offer is access to a proven, long -established strategy for getting the phone to ring with enquiries from interested people. The vast majority of people who read the marketing you produce are not interested in the slightest...but some are....amongst those few are ultimately the ones you will prosper from.

I show people how to 'work smart' and not be slaves to their business, and also how to segment and target their chosen areas etc.

Of those who are interested to know more, and who phone you up...the vast majority are not interested (motivated) enough to do a deal - or their equity situation will not permit it.... that leaves the remainder - who are motivated enough, and have sufficient equity  - doing deals with you.

Secondly, I show people how to handle the phone calls efficiently and effectively and how to handle the market value research process too. The face-to-face home visit along with the psychology, and overall approach  involved are also covered in depth.

Finally, and this is probably your query Christie?..I give you the connections (you don't have to use these people though) of the professionals that you need access to.

If lack of funds for a deposit is an issue - or you simply want to hold on to your cash - then these people will be able to make things work for you - if the circumstances permit. Circumstances are different for each and every deal - no two are alike ever.

Rik is right about changing circumstances in the financial world from time to time.

Whilst I offer marketing, research and sales tuition, I am not a qualified broker or conveyancer - I don't have to be.

Why not? Because I have access to those who are as qualified as anyone I know. It would be wrong of me to simply show someone how to get the phone to ring and get discounts accepted without also passing them over to the connections they need to make things work.

The fact that i am personally 'living' and working my system day-to-day in my own business obvioulsy helps (forces) me to keep me ear well and truly to the ground. I come across the same issues as anyone else in this business - and react accordingly...and i think I'm doing ok....

I have had people buy my system who then contact me months later to adnit that they have left it gathering dust on the shelf - they readily accept their shortcomings.  The people who contact me to say they are storming along are .(surprise, surprise), the ones with the right attitude.

fortunately most people fall into the latter category. 

Same information - different results!

I am a buy to let investor with about 20 properties bought the old fashoned hard way.

I read about Raltos manual and decided to buy it. after reading it I was left in no doubt that if followed it would get the advertised results. It just uses a simple marketing approach that is used by thousands of other successful companies. (although there are many other parts to it as well)

The basic idea is simple.

Anyway, I put out my first 5000 flyers and got my first deal tonight.

Easy.

There is more than one way to skin a cat. I personally haven't read Greg's manual. I would however say the same sort of thing about Glenn's course, that is what opened my eyes to the whole BMV and NMD concept. Before then we had one BTL property, bought at close to MV, with a 30%+ deposit down. Perhaps we were doing it wrong back then, although we have made money from that property. Before Glenn's course I had no idea that motivated sellers existed, or that there were ways of buying a property without putting many thousands into a deal.

So, both Greg and Glenn have helped a lot of investors to get started. Kudos to both.
