I am a newbie to this site and many things concerning the internet and blogs and forums. However, I do know a thing or two about ego oriented power crazy people in postions they do not belong in. KDHASLEDT is the typical person to fit that description. I see nothing positive in his actions. To the contray, he seems, argumenatitive, arogant, abusive, intimidating, unresposive, and a multitude of other not so pretty descriptive words which will remain un-written. I thought this was a place where someone could learn something, exchange ideas and generally benefit from the education of others thru discussion. So far I have been berated and belittled by KEITH (see double closings in Illinois) and see him again doing the same thing to the people in this discussion. This is absurd, we need education not “posturizing from the pulpit” as Keith seems to do on a consistent basis. Can we get him censured and get someone who is kinder and willing to help rather than hinder?

We have other moderators. Everyone has different personalities and moderators are people too. He provides a lot of good advice, but won’t take being attacked because he edited a post that disparaged someone. Everyone has a right to disagree as long as we don’t get into name-calling and follow the rules.
DEEINAUSTIN, Thats fine and I agree with that postion and premise,however, my 1st foray into this site was not a pleasant one and you can thank KDHASTEDT for that.
I am trying to learn about short sales and I asked for some help understanding why this concept of a double close was such a hot topic in Illinois and not in Wisconsin. His subsequent attack on my lack of knowledge and demaning remarks about where I live was totally un called for and not warranted. And now that I have read this entry and a few others it seems to me that MR KEITH has some kind of power complex problem.
He needs to tone down his attacks, and his self rightoues attitude, and be an educator. I bet he has a wealth of knowledge that could benefit us all if he would get off his high horse and help the little uneducated guy like my self and many others on this site.
I am here to learn something so that I can better my life and help my family. I am a 57 yr old empty nester who has put 4 kids thru college, I was laid off but I aint givin up. I will find a way to learn these investing techniques and make a better life for my family and all around me despite people like KDHASTEDT.

If you have a problem with any moderator on this forum please email or PM the owner of this site: http://www.reiclub.com/forums/index.php?action=viewprofile;user=TRandle
Beyond that let’s keep the off-topic comments out of this thread. Whether or not you like Keith or anyone else doesn’t contribute a damn thing to the discussion at hand regarding the above mentioned gurus. Constructive comments short sale courses and bootcamps please…
You know what…? I’m calling you out now. You’re a prevaricator. Period.
<<His subsequent attack on my lack of knowledge and demaning remarks about where I live was totally un called for and not warranted. >>
Not true. A prevarication. I didn’t attack your lack of knowledge (well except subsequently your lack of knowledge about the existence of the “Rust Belt” which you deemed a “diparaging remark”…). I was making a Moderation/modification to your post and you took exception to it. It happens a lot here – Get over it.
<<And now that I have read this entry and a few others it seems to me that MR KEITH has some kind of power complex problem.>>
ROFLMAO…yeah, that must be it. Or maybe I’m just reveling in the gross amounts af money that I make here as a Moderator and and taunting you with it! Or maybe it’s just a racist remark because I’m German…?
<<He needs to tone down his attacks, and his self rightoues attitude, and be an educator. I bet he has a wealth of knowledge that could benefit us all if he would get off his high horse and help the little uneducated guy like my self and many others on this site.>>
Nah, I’d never do that! LOL! You say you’ve read my posts…all of them? I’ll bet not – I would recommend that maybe you read some more – I help people all of the time in the Forums and privately via e-mail/Private Messages. Like I said in my last post to you – you reap what you sew. If you call me out and try to bust my stones, expect me to return the favor.
And BTW - I don’t even have a horse!

A noble venture. I wish you luck in that.
But, I don’t let people walk on me and I don’t let people break the Forum Rules as a course of habit. If you treat me poorly, I will do the same. I personally don’t care whether or not you like me (I’m not running for mayor!) but I’m going to enforce the rules of the forum.
That said, I apologize if you mistook my initial comments as attacks on you or your geographic lot in life.

Zebold,
What is the REO spreadsheet?
Thank you,
Eddie
I just listened to a DVD with Claude, Angie and whatshisname.
I must say Claudes’ presentation cleared up any questions I had about using a Land Trust to transact a short sale or any other RE transaction!
He spoke in plain English.
Ryan was a real pain in that he was bouncing back and forth behind Angie while she was doing her presentation, he was very distracting.
Angie was reading strictly from a script with a lot of "you know"s.
Claude is without a doubt a polished, effectve and informative speaker (in my opinion.)
Land trusts here I come! :smile
This is just one reason I love this website so much…The moderators DO AN EXCELLENT JOB of filtering out the BS from some posters, as well as providing invaluable advice/guidance/etc)…I joined a real estate group about a year ago that was all done through emails…You wouldn’t believe how much crap came out of that (Muslim dating services, tarot card reading, etc.)…the moderator never looked at anything before it came through…
I say TRIPLE the moderators’s pay on this site!!!
(Yeah, I know…3 x $0 = $0) :biggrin
Woo Hoo! Triple Pay!!!
I paid alot to different mentors. I was in middle of short sale and I was asking quetion from my mentors but they didn’t help me the way I listen to Ryan & Angie and Claude teleseminar through REIclub. I got register my self to go to short sale boot camp and I know I will learn alot. Because its easy to say do short sale but when the time is coming to you, you don’t know how to get help?! even though you know the process. In my opinion is better to pay 5000 or 10000 but to learn the right way. Plus there is funding source available through them you can pay 5 points and get funding. Also there is site you can pay 50.00 dollars and get your necessary forms. Especially to make preliminary HUD-1.
I have never attend a Ryan Tewis seminar-not have I ever had any personal contact with him or his group. I just wanted to mention that I belong to a nationwide real estate attorney and broker discussion forum and Ryan’s “training/lesson” emails are constantly broadcast to our group by reputable professionals as “gray area, borderline illegal if not entirely illegal” They are a frequent source of discussion among professionals that aim to keep all real estate transactions 100% legal and appropiate. Just my thoughts to you-
I think they are walking in the grey area, (someone is knowingly stripping equity from the lender) Kind of like people that “buy” houses in pre-foreclosure and rent them back to the owners(grey; but can be done eithically and legally, but a lot of people get sued for it).
This pertains to almost Any Guru out there…if they are soooooo good at what they teach, why are they not out buying and selling property instead of charging suckers thousands of dollars to attend a bootcamp where you learn everything you can already find in this forum for FREE!!! So you pay thousands to get pumped up. Just go buy some property instead!
