What’s My Solution?

I think Foreclosure Academy teaches a decent business model in theory. However, “theories” often don’t pan out.

For example, with the real estate foreclosure business model you’ll find yourself struggling with...

  1. Pissed off owners

  2. Slow government processes

  3. Deals falling through at the last minute


Yeah, those are just a few of the things that gurus like Carlton Weiss don’t really tell you about the business.

Which I totally understand, if you knew those things... you’d probably reconsider buying from them right?

Unfortunately, they know that too... which is why they don’t say anything.

See, they’re mainly just concerned with you handing over your money (I’m talking gurus at large here) and wishing you luck.

When their system doesn’t work... it’s not their fault... or their systems... it’s your fault.

It’s something you did.

That’s the reason you’re not making full time passive income...

Ugh.

I hate that they deal with people that way. Too much psychological manipulation and once you see it... you can’t unsee it. It makes you sick.

At least it makes me sick...

See I’ve tried a lot of things throughout the years myself. But I’ve also had family members try real estate from their favorite guru, they’ve tried Amazon FBA, drop shipping, running an agency, even credit card programs.

It has never ended well.

You see, I learned that it is almost impossible to do any one of these “side hustles” full time unless you have a lot of money or have come from a rich family.

Gurus will tell you otherwise, but we all know why that is...

So in my online journey I was going to make sure that whatever it was I did was 1: viable and 2: only takes an hour or two after work to work on.

I didn’t want to get stuck in the constant hustle and burn my life away trying to chase after the guru version of the hamster wheel.

Screw that!

I want to be able to work hard, have a job (which isn’t as bad as gurus say), and have some side income.

I’m not greedy.

I’m not looking to get super rich.

Just something honest and simple.

I found that to be something called Local Lead Generation.

No ads, No crazy tech skills, and no real sales skills either.

All you do is build a little website like this:

Webstie

Rank it to the top of Google like this:

And call up a guy/gal in town who can do the work.

After they’ve made some money, you just ask for a finders fee (super common in the contracting space) and boom... you’ve created a nice dependable side income.

Have I known people who do this full time with hundreds of these sites?

Sure... but they’re pretty stressed out!

People with 5-10 of these though?

Super relaxed from what I’ve experienced myself and seen from others.

And we’re after the least amount of stress possible right?

That’s what I’m thinking...

Full time secure job, 401k or IRA retirement account, and side hustle income leads to a pretty cushy life.

Gurus won’t tell you that because they want to pull on your greed strings.

I’m sick of the industry though, and just want to be straight with you.

There will be some hard work involved. Not everything will be peachy from the onset. But it will be worth while.
