Lou Brown is a real estate coach, guru and entrepreneur…

We discussed Lou Brown, and it became very clear to me that he is one bad MAMMA JAMA in the real estate world, and his offering should not be discounted easily.

Louis Brown offers real estate investment coaching and courses such as:

  • Affordable Housing Provider Field Training Course

Brown doesn’t have a very active presence on YouTube. He does do interviews and you can find these in podcasts (on FlipNerd.com, blogtalkradio.com, and iTunes, for example).

Virtually none of his material is available on Amazon, although you can occasionally find it from third-party sellers, and from the same type of seller on eBay.

StreetSmart reviews of Lou Brown’s seminars and products are overall positive, although I couldn’t find many current ones. Here are a few:

Lou Brown is a real motivator.I saw him last year and purchased his material. I recommend if you  have the cash get all that you can. You can never know too much. –REIClub.com (2007)

There have been complaints about the way Louis Brown conducts his live seminars. Many people felt that he was holding back and merely using the seminar time to pitch additional products. In addition, I’ve met folks who felt the material was not worth the amount of money they paid for the courses. –Reviewopedia.com

Lou Brown’s course is the best available. Most national speakers use Lou’s material for their books and tapes. His course isn’t cheap but it’s worth it. –Don R., BiggerPockets.com (2008)
Brown definitely has a wealth of experience in real estate investing and knows how to package it into an organized educational format. It is pricy, so do your homework. If you are getting started in real estate investing, you may be able to find the same kind of information for less cost elsewhere. Still, Brown has industry respect, and that counts for something.
Good luck!

Recap

Getting coaching in real estate investing is a MUST, not a SHOULD.

Many agree that this seasoned veteran knows his stuff and can teach you a thing or two.

My recommendation….Stay plugged into podcasts and biggerpockets to get information for free and then supplement it with the more advanced training from gurus like these guys if you are dead set on real estate investing.

Good luck!
