Bootcamp Overview

REO boot camps are back! The rules have changed in the current market. Strategies used to find leads two years ago aren't the ones you'll use today. In this relationship driven market, you must know what it takes to get leads coming to you instead of tirelessly pursuing people facing foreclosure.

The Norris Group's REO Boot Camp will be for those that want real, hands-on experience. Bruce Norris takes his 27 years of Calfornia real estate experience and market timing expertise and personally teaches you what we do every day in pursuit of wholesale deals.

At this three-day intensive, you'll learn how to:

• Use buying stratgies that bring the deals to you
• Correctly appraise properties in a declining market
• Calculate repairs
• Generating offers that make sense
• Funding your finds
• Prepare for and attend auctions
• Talk with agents and lenders live
• How to work with brokers who control inventory
• Learn what REO brokers are currently dealing with and what they need from you as an investor
• Prepare for and attend a trustee sale live
• Little tools that can make life so much easier
• And, of course, so much more

IT GETS BETTER...

Just like our California "Only" Investor Series, use us as your money partner and we'll rebate your education fees, one point at a time, until you receive the entire education fees back! We can't be any more serious about your success.

Space is limited for every boot camp so call (951)780-5856 today to reserve your spot or to be put on a waiting list for cancellations.

Testimonials

Exceeded my expectations and gave me a very clear game plan of what to be doing, and more importantly not doing, in the down market in the years ahead. All of the staff was marvelous.
- Craig T.

At this bootcamp I enjoyed the closeness and interaction of the group. Before coming I struggled with how to find REO brokers to work with. Being able to listen to a conversation Bruce had on the phone with an REO broker and having one attend the class and speak took away any comfusion that I had. Thank you.
- Paul

I was very surprised at the idea of repairing properties for "best value" as opposed to "sparkle and shine." Considering the plethora of properties on the market, I was somewhat confounded to learn that less is more. I think it will help me be more successful in having offers accepted. It will get me in and out of properties more quickly, and reduce the chance of mistakes with more in depth repairs. I enjoyed listening to how Bruce negotiates, he is, of course, light years beyond my expertise and it was fun to hear the logical path he takes. He makes it seem so simple. I really was sorry to see the boot camp come to an end. It was nice to have the small group because it makes it easy to get to know one another and creates more likelihood that some will stay in touch. The knowledge and confidence I gained were well worth the price, even more, dare I say. Knowledge is power, and the Boot Camp delivers!

Truly the bootcamp was well worth the value in Gold! The scripts, contacts, resources, and processes are extremely valueable, especially to insight into the changing real estate market. I would certainly recommend to others and attend it again if there is a follow-up bootcamp!
- Anon.

I liked the video Bruce made on buying at auction, preparing for it, etc. I liked being put on the telephones because that's the hardest part for me and it forced me to do that; now I think it will be easier! I also liked going to the houses and seeing how to price the offers on them and estimating the repairs. I loved Bruce's staff and how great they are with us, and Bruce is great ! It was nice to have such an easy and comfortable atmosphere there.
- D. Sturla

I like Bruce because he has experience with everything that was being taught and he presents information well. The hands on exercises are what I appreciated most.
- Anon.

I have attended several other seminars by other companies and the Norris Group seminar is far and away the most useful and practical information I have received. The information presented and the real world experiences of Bruce Norris and the other Norris Group personnel will be very helpful in my real estate investment career. Any real estate professional, regardless of experience, could benefit from this training.
