Haven't heard anything further on his travails and challenges with the string of lawsuits following him after leaving San Antonio and other markets.

No matter...if AM portrays himself as a conceited ahole on tv, then he really cannot expect that anyone will think any differently about him.

Next week he'll be in the Houston area doing seminars and ripping off idiots thinking they can get ahead by listening to his scams. Do you really want to follow in the steps of a man whom is constantly sued or only sells homes to illegal immigrants with no proof of income? Countless numbers of his homes have gone into foreclosures well before the economy started to crumble. He can't even be considered a real R/E investor because most of his work is just glorified bulldogging which last I heard is now illegal in the state of Texas. You find a cheap run down house, find an investor that is willing to put up any cash and their names to the contracts, do a quick cheap rehab, and sell it to the first moron that passes by. Then everyone gets paid at the closing, and he walks away free of any liabilities because technically the investor was the seller of the house and not him.. Just run away from this creep as fast as you can, unless you like cat pee houses... Will someone please throw him into solitary confinement so we never have to hear or see him again.

This is scary. I have a telephone meeting scheduled in the AM (1-9-2010) with a guy from AM's company - he happens to be in Utah. If all of the negative info I'm reading in this blog has even a grain of truth to it, I think I might be better off to leave my phone off the hook. I've only seen AM on the show 3 or 4 times, but I pegged him as being arrogant, disrespectful, condescending and vulgar in his treatment of the people he's involved with. It doesn't appear that he does things in a manner I would consider ethical, based on the majority of what I've read here tonite. I'd appreciate an email - bobbyallenjames@yahoo.com from anyone who's actually completed a ransaction with him personally Whoa! This is scary.

I was contacted about the mentor program, etc, but felt his base program was enough to get me started. Admittedly, I have a background in building as my father is a General Contractor. However, I personally am in pharmaceuticals. Knowing the job market to be uncertain, I decided I needed to do something that could sustain my income level should I lose my job. I was intrigued with AM program and watched it several months before knowing he had a program he offered. After buying the base program, I reveiwed it and began to develop my own plans. I found the program to be an "add to" to the foundational base I had begun to establish in flipping my own houses. I liked the organization AM set up in working with contractors and the the ability to sell in multiple fashions including auctions, etc. As with any program, including educational classes, you are given a baseline to develop yourself and you will only become what you set your mind on to become. If I do all as AM does, then who am I really? I have read other's books and ideas as well. Some have become part of my business, but some were just not me. Basically, if you expect to buy some program that will make you rich, you are deceived. You can learn from the dumb person not to be dumb. We need to take the best of any program and see if it can make us better. As far as the AM program, I found about 50% of his materials to be useful. What have I done in the last year? I started with just a couple of rehabs. I rolled that money each time I sold to buy more and now buy one each month. I carry three rehabs at one time, selling one prior to buying another. My new Rehab company's net worth is right at $500k. I have the ability to pay off my current home loan of $250K, but do not so as to continue to use the money to buy more houses. However, it is nice knowing that I really am debt free if I so desire. The key here is to learn from every program, learn from other investors locally and glean knowledge from you mistakes. I will continue to invest in more programs knowing my knowledge can be increase in what they may be doing positive or what I may not like they are doing negative.

He is giving some people more chances than they have been offered. To others a different perspective and new ideas they may not have seen or thought of before. Take what you want from him, disregard the rest, invite him in, or don't let him near your home (as one person has said). Another option for you is to change the chanel!! I believe for some people in need he is giving information that can be very helpful to them. Who really cares??? He is giving some people more chances than they have been offered.
