RE MentorReviews of rementor.com

its just ok not anything special

Information shared is good. However, most of the training is about upselling / cross selling other high price products.

Too many infomercials, not enough concise information delivered. Chauvinistic comments give the impression that the organization does not see the women in the audience as business people. Inappropriate innuendos for a mixed group of real estate investors. Presenters often unable to maintain audience attention. Good exhibitors. Excellent networking.

Great event!! To much selling going on by Re mentor and everyone else....

Networking was a Ultimate purpose of the event for me and how the event was offered. Ultimate Partnering. Speed Networking - should have been done multiple times. I was not aware of any affinity groups where we could meet with people interested in the same market as we are so we can partner. It would be nice for those people interested in investing only (not management) would have had a different color of lanyard or were easily recognizable. It would be nice to have multiple structured networking opportunities. Such as by target market, by where you live to meet others from your city, state, those who would like to meet other operators, if you want to find a sponsor have a session just for that, for those who have a deal they want to present, have a time for them to present their deal, have a list of REM Mentors who are willing to mentor someone else. It would be very helpful to break down the very large number of attendees into smaller groups. I had to choose between networking and listening to presenters and missed some of the content. If there are going to be infomercials on other peoples products, it would be nice to have actual student success testimonials to support the offering. Otherwise, I feel like I have paid a very large access fee to fund another company to try to high pressure sell me something else on top of what I'm already spending. I don't enjoy sitting through infomercials with very little take away on how I can get my next deal. Present multiple case studies from students on how they have used your products, your coaches, your events and training to land their deal. What did they do wrong, what did they learn, what would they recommend you put into your purchase contract to CYA, etc. Allow a time for Q&A so we can learn from one another how to get our deal. REM Mentor is not successful unless we are. We need access to more support.

The website is a little dated in appearance and layout. There are hyperlinks in places where I would not expect them, and no hyperlinks in places that I would expect them. Some clicks get you to areas where you need to re-enter your password but it's not clear why. I expect that this website has grown significantly over the years and could significantly benefit from a redesign to better convey it's current content, and appear more professional.

I feel like there is tremendous value to this program if taught properly at these expensive 3-day workshops and there is a significant amount of valuable information that is out there to be learned. We covered a portion of it, however there was a lot that we didn't cover. There was a great deal of time spent on the speaker telling personal stories, jokes, and irrelevant information (I am not referring to the success stories shared via the video monitor, those were great) and just not enough time spent on real practical information we were expecting to learn. For example, we only did 2 case studies out of all studies in the book. They were so confusing for someone who was a beginner. I felt that more time could have been spent on explaining for the newbies before jumping right in to it. Also, we did not do all of the case studies, which would have been very helpful, as everyone knows, repetition is how you learn best. I don't feel ready to go home and try those alone, I am still very confused by it. Had we done them in class, with explanation, I would have learned it. However not much explanation was provided. We also didn't discuss negotiation techniques at all and overcoming objections, something that is vital to this training. We did not cover all of the 27 proven techniques for no money down as was mentioned in the book "The Multi-Family Manifesto". I was hoping to get more relevant information to be equipped with tools as a beginner to go out and take action. Instead, I felt we were given only the bits and pieces, or the highlights and a lot of details were left out, so that we would have to invest additional time and money. I am fine with investing more time in my education and look forward to working with a coach, however I expected to walk away having learned a great deal more and have more relevant content covered at the 3 day live event, which was a large investment of time and finances. These are easy improvements that can be made to make better use of the time by the speakers and provide value to the training.

The "Big Black Peter" story/joke told by Eric, the primary trainer, in the afternoon of Saturday, April 21, 2018 was inappropriate, disrespectful, and offensive to many members of a mostly African American group across the river from Washington, DC. The multifamily real estate information was useful but the "Big Black Peter" story/joke was not necessary and will hopefully not be repeated at future RE Mentor events.
