Robert was outstanding! Great get for us. A lot of interest. Please contact me the next time he's around. Would love to have him back.
Where is he based? The more I think about it, the more I wonder if we should use him on a more regular basis. Maybe like on a personal finance kind of angle. Robert is "good tv" as they say. My editor noted that he stays "on message" really well--very important with TV time constraints. All good. I definitely want to keep Robert on our list.

We (Fox Business) received great feedback on the interview with Robert and will keep him in mind for the future.

Hi Robert,
I really appreciate you spending your valuable time with us this weekend. The opportunity to learn from the best and network with a wonderful group of other investors was just fantastic.
As my knowledge grows, it becomes increasingly evident how on-the-mark your knowledge is and important it is to turn that information into action plans. Last night, catching up on news before bed, I caught an MSNBC report on "home wreckers", where contractors had false ads in the Yellow Pages (no license, even though it was advertised) or where they left jobs only part way through. Doing the criminal, credit, and reference checks was clearly important and could have saved some home owners a huge amount of grief and money.
And in this morning's Wall Street Journal, page 3 had an article titled, "America's Charitable Giving Hits a Record". Perhaps it was a combination of the types of people who are drawn to your information and the effectiveness of your Inner Circle screening process, but it seems that many of us in the group are interested in "giving back". You set the bar very high, but that's what being a role model and mentor is about. I'm very pleased to be affiliated with you and your organization, and I look forward to working with you more in the coming year.
Kind regards,
Stew Peckham
The Inner-Circle is the best thing I have ever been a part of. I can't believe you opened up your home to me and the group and personally evaluated my business plan, goals, and transactions. I loved all the training and can't believe you have taken training/mentoring to a new level, by being personally involved.

I have been able to properly analyze properties within an hour, whereas it would take me weeks just to know how to analyze it. I highly recommend Robert Shemin to anyone looking to properly learn how to invest in Real Estate.
James
I have been involved with so many business opportunities in the past. None compare with the simplicity and genius of Robert Shemin's courses and books. If you are a seasoned Real Estate Investor or just starting out you will find his books and courses a great help. His books are an easy read and he backs up his talk with his walk. First hear him speak, then invest with him. In my opinion anyone can make it if they just follow a leader.

Thanks, Robert, for helping me make one of the greatest deals that I have made in the last 9 years. By using your, "driving for dollars" and "submitting two different contracts" I was able to buy a run down house for $56,000. It took me 9 months to finally close on the house, but it was a sweet deal. I will end up putting around $110,000 in repairs (it's a MAJOR rehab) and it is now on the market for $272,900. I'm able to use the law of "get and give" to help a young couple who are going to lease option it, another of your great ideas, which will give me cash flow of $250, plus $5,000 up front and the big payday of around $101,900 a year from now, so I don't have to pay those HEFTY capital gains taxes! This is more than my husband has made in the last year and I did it with YOUR help! Thanks for caring enough to share your knowledge and expertise. It goes to show that even a stay-at-home, home-schooling mom of 5 children can use your program and make BIG PROFITS!

Robert,
You might remember me and my son from your Fort Lauderdale seminar - Jamaican, crazy hair! Well, I just tied up 83 properties in your back yard - Memphis, for $1000 down! They're 95% tenant occupied so I'm keeping 26 of them for income and selling the others. Expect to walk away with approx 400 - 500k cash, plus $1.7+ in net worth (owner financing) and over $20k income per month! I think that was a good deal, what do you think?
Joy Robinson
Hello, It was fantastic meeting you in Fort Lauderdale. I took away so much from this conference and have been putting it to use daily.
Robert you are absolutely FABULOUS!
Many positive changes are in the works for Nanette and I and we believe, and certainly look forward to, pursuing a few deals we have been working on.
Our skills have been sharpened and we are really excited at the opportunity and doors this conference has opened to us by following techniques learned, using negotiating tips practiced and working the psychological boosters.
It certainly helped me to have so many motivated, positive and helpful people at the conference to interact with. Thank you!
It all feels good.
Wishing you the best and hope to keep in touch

Robert,
I feel so privileged to have meet you in NYC in 2006. At that time I was just starting in real estate. With your help and teaching, the biz is off to a strong start.
Additionally, I want to let you know the generosity you have for others is an outstanding trait. Thank you for dinner, TV interview, Coaching, cocktails, photos and offering your card.
I can not wait to work more closely with you at the Inner Circle...
Cheers,
"New Jersey Norm"
Hi Robert,
Thank you for a great weekend of fun and learning. While I have not been as successful as I had hoped thus far, you have completely changed the way I approach life and challenges. I did not get the opportunity to do a video testimonial at the super conference, but I will make sure to at the next opportunity. When I make my first million dollars, I would love to take you out to dinner as a special thank you.
Have yourself a wonderful week.
Ricardo C.
Thank you for all of your help in this matter, I attended the conference and it was the best I attended in over thirty years. Once again thank you.
Bobbie James
Hi Robert,
I bought your program when you were at our REIA last year or so and you gave me a second set. You are so kind!
I've been listening and listening to your tapes and have learned so much. I've recently found an out-of-town landlord who had two houses for sale, and by using your techniques of asking “what else do you have,” she sold me four properties here in Wilmington. I assigned my contract and made $25,000 assignment fee, which I shared with my realtor/friend who helped me out. The new buyer will be making over $150,000 profit. Thank you.
I've been also “driving for dollars” and came across a vacant property. I tracked down the owner who was in a nursing home, then got in contact with the guardian for her estate. They have accepted my contract for $39,000 on a home that will be worth over $250,000 with a max of $100,000 worth of repairs. Thank you.
I also saved $325 when I asked my roofing contractor "can you do any better than that?" and he threw in a free skylight installed Thank You.
God bless and thanks for giving back. I hope to be as rich and generous as you some day.

Hi Robert,
Good morning! My name is Susan Josey and you selected me at the Learning Annex and blessed me with your tools and training for my partner and me. We could never thank you enough for this opportunity. We know with all our hearts this is what we want to do.
We went to your 3-day training in Irving, CA with Paul Young as the speaker. He was truly amazing. We soaked up every word he said…he is brilliant and so informative. My partner and I will do whatever it takes to make this dream come true for us. We want to take it all the way and speak to help others achieve what we are going to. We have foundations and charities we want to help greatly and we need a lot of money to help our families and others the way we want to.
We are currently typing up our notes from Paul Young’s training and we are listening to 51 Costly Mistakes. We did fax a contract to an agent yesterday as well.
This is our dream way of life and we want so desperately for it to come true. Thank you a million times and you won’t regret giving me these incredible tools. I feel so blessed and confident this is answer to what we have been searching for. I know you’re an angel helping so many to change their lives for the better and live the life that God meant for them. Seek and you will find.
I look forward to working with you and your team and could never thank you enough for this wonderful opportunity. Thank you with all my heart!
With all my gratitude,
Susan Josey
Robert,
I just wanted to say, you have the best teaching methods. As a educator myself, you really engage the learner and make it fun!
I can not wait for the future with you and your company. The philosophy and reality style fit me great. I look forward to the Inner Circle meeting in Miami.
On a personal level, your generosity and genuineness is a character trait that is hard to find of an international name.
To success,
Norman
Mr. Shemin, Thank you for recently showing your kindness and generosity at the Real Estate Wealth Expo in LA, but I felt that you deserved a greater thank you.
In the past, I did things backward. I helped my fellow man without helping myself and without being in a position to have multiple streams of income for myself. I got scammed out of a job and money and lost everything. I ended up in a shelter and never ever want to be in that position again. I am a smart and caring "cookie" and ready to do what it takes to become a Millionaire now and I won't quite until I succeed. I want to learn how to fish so I can keep repeating bigger and better success, not just having the Fish given to me.
Anyway, I sure did appreciate your kindness and thoughtfulness. You definitely do "Walk your Talk" and your beautiful spirit is recognized and much appreciated! Thank you Robert Shemin! ("Shemin," that word must mean "awesome" in some language")
Marianne Struk
I am sure this is one of many thank yous from a happy student. I really enjoyed your 3 day course in Las Vagas last weekend and I'm looking forward to Millionaires boot camp and asset protection in the near future. I appreciate the passion and energy you put into your courses and I feel you really want your students to get it and take action. I look forward to telling you about some successes.
Mark James
Thank you for the many lessons this past weekend. I cannot emphasize enough how important your "worst case" lesson was for me. Even if there is an economic disaster, the worst that could happen to negotiate the debt with the bank or declare chapter 11 and reorganize. As a result of reducing my fear, I've already made one call about a bank owned multi-family ($479,000 - it's just a number) I found on Loopnet and will make other calls today.
Jonathan B. McAuley
"I am about halfway through your book Secrets of Buying and Selling Real Estate...Without Using Your Own Money. First I wanted to say I LOVE your book, and can’t wait to get the next one. I am just starting to read up on real estate investing and your books came highly recommended by a local investor. I wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences."
S. Policella
"We began investing in real estate about four years ago. About three years into it, my wife quit her job and we were featured in a new magazine about property investments. The owner of that magazine had invited us to join them at the New York Learning Annex in November of 2005. One of the speakers I listened to was Robert Shemin. I was so impressed with his energy and knowledge of real estate that I brought my wife back to hear him later that day.
We have been able to benefit and apply many things that Robert suggests. Even if you only applied a few of the the tips to your business, it would be well worth the money. One things Robert touches on in his CD is that real estate is about the numbers. So we started taking our emotions out of the buying process, and just started doing the math on each house. If the math made sense, we made an offer. Also, Robert said to spend more time doing the things you enjoyed and were good at. So, I started hiring more of the repairs out, and spent more time finding better deals. This has made my business grow more in the last year than in the previous three years! In the spring of 2006, I was able to quit my job. I had been at the same job since high school, it had always been my family's security. However, with real estate, I have more time and income."
B. McManus
"I recently read a negative review on Roberts books. I've been a real estate investor for 28 years and I have read all the books. I constantly recommend Roberts information because it is presented in layman terms. When you start to read it, you can wrap your brain around it. Most of the other information I have read is not easy to understand. I recommended Roberts books this past weekend to my sister. She has been an employee at Ford Motor Company for years in Norfolk, Va. and they are closing the plant and she has to start over. She is 52 years old and has to find a new career for the next ten to fifteen years. I didn't mention I am a real estate investor worth over 20 MILLION dollars in Jacksonville, Fl. What would I have done if I had read a book before I got started? Thanks Robert - Your books are gold. All you have to do is take action."
D. Chappell
"Robert, great Investor's Teleconference last night, it was the first one I had ever attended. Every time I hear you speak I learn valuable real estate investment information. Thanks again."
D. McDonald
"Just to say a BIG THANKS to you and Chad for a most informative and valuable phone conference! Great stuff! With my warmest wishes - Yours sincerely."
R. Lister
"Dear Mr. Shemin, I attended the North Carolina seminar and have submitted four offers today and have submitted two questions on the coach's line. Thanks for your encouragement."
L. Henderson
"After listening to you speak, at the ACRE Convention in Pittsburgh, my partner and I decided to purchase your course. After using it over the past few months I was able to purchase a single family home in a very good neighborhood for 80% of its appraised value at that time. After doing some rehab to the property I used a private investor to cash me out and now I have a property that I have no money into, but cash flows at about $200 per month. I must give credit where it is due as I used some of your techniques to pull this off...thank you. While reviewing your material, I found your business overview to be particularly helpful. Thanks again for all of your help, you have been a great inspiration!!!"
T. Seaman
"Robert, I had the great pleasure of listening to you at the Triangle REIA meeting last night. You are one of the best speakers we have ever had. Not only did you have great info, but you kept us entertained and thinking all night. Thank you for the knowledge tonight."
Ted
"My husband bought me Secrets of a Millionaire Real Estate Investor to get into real estate investing. I went to the court house the following week following Robert Shemin's advice to the letter, and began researching the foreclosure listings. That Friday we attended our first auction and met someone who provided hard money financing through a reputable real estate company. The following week I started classes with PREIG. The classes took away almost all of the stress. I called for private consultation when I needed to, and felt strongly that there was someone who was watching our backs. PREIG took all of the guess work out of it. It was like having an experienced uncle to lean on rather than being out their on our own, completely vulnerable to any and all mistakes possible in this business.
We utilized local consultants as advised by PREIG and built up our network quickly as a result which has now allowed us to continue our work more independently which was our goal. I called PREIG, got help with the contracts and moved forward. After walking through everything with our PREIG advisor, we felt a lot more confident and decided to advertise the house in the paper with an all day open house. Because of what I learned through PREIG, I could coach first time buyers through the process, including teaching them about escalation clauses. We believe that PREIG paid for itself on our first deal. THANKS PREIG!"

"Hi Robert. I just wanted to say how great it was meeting you on Saturday in Los Angeles. You always motivate and amaze me. I saw you at the Real Estate Expo several months ago at the Staples Center in LA for the first time. Since then, I have become hooked! I asked you the question about how to acquire a foreclosure that sells at auction this Thursday BEFORE it goes to auction. You told me to ask the neighbors. I did as you suggested yesterday afternoon. I don't know if I will be able to get the property, but you were right on with the suggestion! The neighbor across the street knew just about everything going on with the property. The owner has locked herself in the house so no luck there. Thanks for the suggestion. I look forward to hearing you speak sometime in the future. Thanks for the real deal information. Thanks again,"

"Hi Robert. Hope your well. Loads of things happening at the moment, just closed on another property, have picked up 3 students from Phoenix all U.S. citizens, my students in the U.K. have also bought property using your system with no money down. I have 5 students now, who i have taught to buy real estate with 'no money down', they were all under the impression that it could not be done, but with me concentrating on their mindset they now believe."
Kevin L.
"I wanted to first thank you for the informative and entertaining seminar you provided yesterday, 6/24, at the Sheraton near LAX. Once again, I learned a lot of valuable information about real estate in general, not just about making money. Thank you."
Tri D
"This past weekend was so phenomenal with all that we learned from Robert and his guest speakers, other investors and just the whole experience. Thank you all so much for creating an inviting atmosphere for first time investors to seasoned investors to all come together and share in the synergy. We LOVED the hotel, the staff, the rooms and the location for our 'afterhour' activities of visiting exciting Vegas. Also, we truly thank Robert for our $1500 winnings for the testimonial contest. Thank you once again for a phenomenal experience. Warmest regards."

Eagles Way, LLC
"Robert offered a great presentation...in my past life I worked as a training developer in the direct sales industry. I worked with the "big dogs" of the motivational speaking world and have seen and worked with many, many great presenters. Robert rates. Good content, good presence (and the "sell" wasn't unbearable as many gurus can be!)"
P. Myers — Wilmington, NC
"Robert, On behalf of TCREIA, I wish to thank you for taking the time to speak to our club. You have great presentation with high audience participation. We have never had a speaker bring so much value to the club. Thanks again."
C. Toler — REALTOR© / Investor
"Thank you again for coming to Bellevue/Seattle to share your knowledge and wisdom with us. I have been listening to your CD's and applying the lessons learned. I have put two properties under contract and looking forward to flip and rent respectively."

"I heard you speak in Dallas and it was excellent. I listened to your tapes and they are the best I've heard so far. I'm 21 and I've been in real estate since I was 18 full time. Thank you"
B. Walker
"I have found your name on the REI clubs and found your information to be as truthful and honest as you claim. I have done my due diligence on you and I have found that you have bought and sold more properties than any other guru out there. I am a new investor in the Nashville area as you have been also and the reason I am writing is I would like to get started writing offers as I have everything in place and ready to go and my question is do you provide e-mail support and help to new investors? Thank you for your time. God Bless."
T. Williams
"I learned a lot on the phone call tonight and am inquiring on the cost of the mentoring program. Of all the people in the world, it's you and your team that can jump start my career! Thanks so much."

Dear Ray and PREIG staff:
I have been so privileged to work with Ray College at PREIG. He is a talented, honest and skillful person. With the help of Ray, I have three deals pending sale and one solo short sale which will be a contract assignment The support and guidance I received is far superior to any other real estate investing course. Again, Ray and the staff at Preig allowed me to push myself and turn all the fears into reality.
In addition, Shemin's teaching and no nonsense conferences gave me the confidence to take action. I highly endorse all of the teachings and materials from Robert Shemin.

"First of all I want to thank you for your wealth of info on real estate and your great presentation. I purchased your program and am looking forward to the 3 day real estate training."
M. R. Stone
"Mr. Shemin, thank you for speaking at our WREIA Meeting last night. Your course is by far the simplest, most thorough and most easily understood course I have used since I began investing in real estate. It gave me the knowledge and the steps needed to take action. I have since read your Secrets of a Millionaire Real Estate Investor and Secrets of a Millionaire Landlord.
I am still a full time investor, and to date my husband and I are blessed to own 17 houses and a 10 unit apartment building that has two commercial units on the first floor. We have created a net worth approaching $2M. Since reading and studying your material, I have become an excellent landlord using your systems.
I'm looking forward to some exciting times with the coming changes in the market. I will be reading the copy of your "Successful R.E. Investing-How to Avoid 75 Most Costly Mistakes Every Investor Makes" that you gave me. I have definitely made some mistakes! But I try to get the lesson and not repeat them. I look forward to hearing you speak again. Happy investing!"

"Just received Volume 1 along with "Making Money in Real Estate" and the 40 day planner. Thank you so much for sending it so promptly. I've already learned a lot from Volume 2 - your explanations are clear and concise and I now fully understand terms like "simultaneous closings" which I have heard at other seminars but never really understood. Thank you again. Best Regards."

"Tampa Bay REIA has received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback for the presentation you gave at the Parade of Experts conference Sunday the 5th. It was a thrill for all of us to hear you speak. The level of information you gave has been greatly appreciated! Thank you so much! Dan and I enjoyed meeting you as well and we are thanking you again for having taken the time for coming to Tampa (Clearwater)!"
A. Willer — Tampa Bay REIA
"First, I just wanted to say that you lead a great seminar yesterday and it's magnificent all that you do for the community! I have people saying the same thing to me about not being able to save the world! Also, I wanted to thank you for your generosity in the donations for the Abilities Foundation! I've helped this organization for nearly 3 years as a non-paid board member. Thanks again for your kind heart and God bless!"
April
"Dan and I enjoyed meeting you as well and we are thanking you again for having taken the time for coming to Tampa (Clearwater)! Just a note to say thank you for your excellent materials and training. You are THE BEST! Thank you again for the book about mothers and daughters..its a tough one to get through!
Whenever I become disheartened with the greed of so many people in real estate investing, and in the world in general, I think of people like you, who make lots of money leading with integrity, trying to create win-win situations and solve people's problems, and with a prosperity mentality that spans far more than money can buy."
Debra from Cleveland
"I am very glad to have the opportunity to tell you what a very special person I think you are. I've seen you time and time again on the Montel Williams show giving your time, money and expertise to help people in need. God puts angels on earth, and I truly believe you are one of them."
Nancy M. — Long Beach, CA
"I bought a property for a total of $109,000 with closing cost. I took their $90,000 mortgage subject to, paid $9,000 to reinstate their mortgage and gave them $5,000 to walk away. They were scheduled for foreclosure. I put a handy man special ad in the paper and sold it to another investor for $150,000 cash! Shemin Rocks!"
B. Chandler — Vienna, Virginia
"Our net worth just this year has grown by 2.5 million dollars. I am a firm believer in the system Robert teaches, the website is a lifesaver. I look forward to years of increased growth. Thank you Robert for your teachings and writings."
Jim A. — Madison, Mississippi
"Life is great here, I'm loving my new life. 2005 is going to be my best year ever and I am very grateful for your friendship. In the real estate zone: I am hopefully closing on the rehab this week, and big news: in the short time we have been gone, I have property #3 under contract as well (and actively negotiating back and forth on properties #4 and #5)! I will tell you all about it when we talk on Friday."
R. Rosen
"My husband and I enlisted the help of some friends we had in states that didn't have a real estate market as difficult to penetrate as Southern California. Within a few weeks of receiving emails from our friends who had local information, we contacted motivated sellers and bought a 3 bedroom, 1 bath home in Muncie, IN for $12,600 and a 2 bedroom, 1 bath home in Dayton, OH for $11,400 including closing costs. The homes were in tax foreclosure, however we were able to give the sellers a mutually agreeable share of their equity, get a clear title, and outright ownership of both. The best thing about these deals is that the properties are in move-in condition. The Muncie home was appraised at $55,000 and the Dayton home was appraised at $33,000, giving us a net paper profit of $64,000 within 1 month. We obtained equity lines of credit to replenish our cash reserves used to acquire the properties as well as to pursue other opportunities as they arise, and we have contracted with property managers to handle renting out the homes. We estimate that this will bring in a net $550 per month after management fees and equity line payments. We paid our friends a relatively small fee for being our eyes and providing digital videos and pictures of the properties, as well as being our agent when working with the appraisers and property managers, and they were happy to make a generous sum of money for what amounted to running a few errands.

It is unbelievable that we would be able to be involved in real estate transactions in another state, but with the power of the internet, cell phones, credit cards, and overnight mail, we have increased our net worth by $64,000 with no more than 20 actual hours of our time expended. I love doing the math on this business. Two people spending 20 hours total and making $64,000 in one month, plus an additional income stream of $550 per month. Just multiply that by 12 and we could conceivably make millionaire status by this time next year!

Jon, I want to thank you, Calvin and the PREIG team for sharing your wisdom, experience and success stories and giving me the confidence to make this dream a reality. My husband, who has been hesitant for the last several years, is now a gung-ho real estate investor. We have vowed that we will work diligently to acquire as many properties as possible, so that we both have the freedom to leave our 50-60 hours-per-week jobs and make real estate investing our sole occupation. PREIG has given us a way to provide for our three small children not only financially, but in increased availability of our time and presence. This is the greatest reward of all. Many, many thanks."
