Great teachers, great information, great experience! You guys rock! Thanks for teaching me to buy right, manage right, and finance right.

The handouts provided with the course clearly explain the Credibility Book. The videos provide some additional background and line of thinking. I do see this course as helpful for my future work.

I have been working for about 10 hours on my financial credibility book and made some serious headway. Jake and Gino's blueprint was used throughout this process, and even inspired my own creative ideas I could use for my situation. These guys always preach about having something to present outsiders when you show up to meetings, and this is the perfect vehicle to execute that. I haven't shown anybody this, but I am so proud that I have something to hang my hat on going forward. This shows I have done my homework, I am somebody you can trust, and here is why multi-family real estate is your most lucrative, secure long term option for your hard earned money. Thank you Jake and Gino! You guys will never know how much this has inspired me.

Great examples and supporting docs. Could have used fewer case studies. Think two would have sufficed. Tended to get repetitive at end.
By Marvin Elmore on 12/8/2017
I am learning so much!! I now wish i. Could find a partner like Jake and Gino!!! I have listened to other courses but yours is far better as in explaining hands down!!!

This is a valuable course to help a would-be investor get organized and seriously think about his/her course of action before investing in multifamily/apartment buildings. Thank you for putting this course together and providing actionable resources!
By Gabriel Williams on 5/5/2016
Professionally put together. I like the new concepts. What brought be to this course is when the speaker mentioned in a podcast that it is easier to compete in a multifamily apartment building than resident housing. Great stuff.
By Skip Preble on 5/3/2016
This is a really good explanation of not only the process of building a credibility book, but also the why of doing this. As I'm listening to these lessons, I can't help but think about other applications for the approach they are describing. I plan to use some of these ideas for a loan package I am putting together tight now.

As a real estate investor in my early 20's seeking to purchase investments of 8 to 50 units, having physical documents highlighting my deals and business strategy allowed me to close a 16 unit apartment complex with only 1.5% down. The insight and detail provided by Jake and Gino for instruction on how to create my own Credibility Book will help me take my investing to the next level. Jake and Gino offer no nonsense insight into their strategies with actionable steps that I believe will make a measurable impact in marketing and closing deals with sellers, bankers, and investors. Thanks guys and looking forward to continuing to learn more from you!
