A True Self Made Real Estate Millionaire,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Be a Quick Turn Real Estate Millionaire: Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit, or Previous Experience (Paperback)
I became aware of Ron Legrand 2 years ago, and the first time I listened to him speak, I realized he had something you can't find on late night infomercials. STREET SMARTS! He has mastered the art of communication from the seller's point of view as if he's reading their cards on every big hand at the poker table. I only rate the book a 4 star effort because he is better to listen to! A remarkable man who has helped American dreams come true, by the thousands. Thanks Ron and Amazon!Keith Maryland, USA

Great Book,
By Paul Galasso (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Be a Quick Turn Real Estate Millionaire: Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit, or Previous Experience (Paperback)
Ron's book is remarkable. I have been doing Real Estate Investing the LeGrand way for a year now. I have made a great profit and my wife and I are very excited about the prospect for the future. This book is a good foundation for more education on creative real estate by Ron and others. Quick Turn Real Estate is not a Get Rich Quick Scheme like some of the others, but it is a Get Rich Business. You can do this!!! with no money or credit!! I have done deals on properties of over $350,000 with only $250 of my own money in the deal. This book takes over where Robert Kiyosaki left off. It is the meat of the entree. I didn't know how to do real estate investing after the Rich Dad's Series, but it got me interested just like it was suppose to do. Ron and his techniques will get me where Robert said I needed to go. Fantastic. Buy it. Read it. Live it. Don't be a thinker brain, be an alligator brain and just do it.

It's all a commercial for his $3000 training packages,
By Burned in Nevada - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Be a Quick Turn Real Estate Millionaire: Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit, or Previous Experience (Paperback)
Don't buy this book!
I was really excited when I bought this book: "Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit or Previous Experience". It looked like it could deliver what it promised, and a quick scan of the chapters convinced me that this was the real deal. When I sat down to read the first chapter or two, I thought the material was good, but thin. In the first 60 pages, 20 are either blank or full-page testimonials of LeGrand's training courses (not testimonials of this book, but of his other courses - which should have tipped me off). There were also several statements like, "Well, I could write a whole book on this topic, but since I can't include it all here, this (short explanation) will have to do". It was a little frustrating, getting excited about a subject and then getting cut off that way with only a little bit of information. When I hit page 62, I knew I'd been had. I read, ""Yes, I know that was a shameless commercial..." "I'd prefer you don't take the information in this book and implement it with no further training." "...do yourself a favor and don't expect miracles from a book." What ever happened to "Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit or Previous Experience"? "Don't expect miracles from a book" certainly wasn't pasted all over the cover in big letters! Then, on the same page, were advertisements for his $3000 real estate courses. I had paid $21.95 for Ron LeGrand to advertise to me! What he did has been done many times before (read any of Wade Cook's books): put out "teasers" in a book, say how much someone can make from all of these ideas, then don't give them enough information to implement them without paying thousands for additional training. I sent an email to his organization saying the same thing. One week later: no response, no apology, no defense of their shameless advertising ploy. I am disgusted with LeGrand's dishonest "bait and switch" tactics, and I hope everyone who sees this learns from my mistake. 44 of 46 people found the following review helpful:

Love watching infomercials? Now you can own one!,
By Mom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Be a Quick Turn Real Estate Millionaire: Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit, or Previous Experience (Paperback)
It's interesting that reviewers mostly either rated this book one star or five, and almost nothing in between. Seems like evidence that the book actually merits one star, and the five star reviews may have been written by those with added incentive. Even the language of the five-star reviews mimics the language of the book exactly, as though the book's author or someone from the organization wrote them.
I actually borrowed the book from the library before deciding whether to buy it, to see if the material was worth keeping around for future reference. Without even having spent anything on it, I still felt used, like I was suckered, because I invested my time in it. It's even structured in the same way as an infomercial, with a page of enticement alternating with a page of personal testimonials from seminar attendees. (And by the way, the MIS seminar frequently mentioned in these testimonials costs $7,000! I looked it up on Ron LeGrand's website, mentioned once every few pages in the book.) To be fair, there is some actual information in the book, albeit prefaced by constant disclaimers that further investment in training is necessary to be able to apply these principles. But something in one of the testimonials led me to believe that there's probably not much to his exorbitant seminars either. Here is an actual quote from p. 54: "The prior residents were supposed to buy it for $152,000 - we figured we would increase the price to $159,900 - but on your CD (the timing of when we listened to that particular one couldn't have been better!) you said to make sure we "research" market values BEFORE we put a price on a home...we ended up asking $168,999..." Now, that is a no-brainer (duh!). If that's the kind of additional training we get from paying thousands for CDs and seminars, I'll stick with a book borrowed from the library, or maybe just my common sense... 56 of 62 people found the following review helpful:

Don't waste your time with this garbage,
By R. kim - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Be a Quick Turn Real Estate Millionaire: Make Fast Cash with No Money, Credit, or Previous Experience (Paperback)
I seriously suspect that people who gave 5 star reviews for this book work for the author or publisher. This book is nothing but a plug for his real estate courses. Believe me, buying this book will make the author, LeGrand, millionare not you.
