    They look a bit like a marketing company. They might do good deals for their investors, but they would be no better than those offerred by some of the people who contribute to this forum, such as Roy from GPS Network or Danny Smith from Wholesale Property Brokers.

    On their web site they say they get paid by the developer, not the client. There is no problem with this, and both the companies I mentioned do this. What you want to make sure, if you want to deal witgh them, is that they get the properties for their client at a discount, which is what both GPS Network and WPB do. There are some less scrupulous companies out there who don’t bother negotiating a discount and siimply lump their fee on top of what the developer wants, which results in the investor purchasing at above market price.

    I don’t know anything about this company. I do know that if I was going to buy off a company such as them, I would use one that contributes to this great forum. I have met both Danny and Roy in person, they’re both great guys and contribute a lot to the people on here, both also provide a great service.

    Hi,

    Thanks APerry, what you mentioned is very true and I appreciate it, also as you know the Research aspect is the key for all property investing and without that it’s pretty much a spray and pray scenario.
