Has anyone been to one of Armando’s live events?
I’m curious what the cost is and if people feel like it was worth the money. He sure just keeps cranking these things out. The funny thing is most people love to buy information. People will buy information on how to get rich, bust most people will never put in the action to make it happen. I think Armando has channeled in the this weakness in people. Thousands of people seem to flock to information and he is more then willing to dish it out. Good job Armando Montelongo! I hope people find value in what you are offering!
Please leave me a comment if you have been to one of these events.

My husband and I went to his 3 day workshop, which was from 9-5, in our state (MD) just this past weekend. It cost us $1500. Now this may seem like a lot of money, and I must agree that it is, but he gave us the step by step directions of how he does his business and if you follow them (cookie cutter) you too can have the same success. It’s all part of his system. Why reinvent the wheel. We got a guarantee with our purchase that if we do a deal within 90 days we get all of our money back. If we don’t do a deal within 6 months he will triple our money. We got these guarantees in writing. We also got phone #s of his coaches if we have any problems or questions. The problem with most people is that they never take action. This is not our case. We have been armed with so much information so we don’t have any worries because we know that we will be successful with Armando and his team on our side. We thought the workshop was awesome.
I am going the end of this month, i’ll let you know how it goes
Today was the 2nd day of the 3 day seminar. LOTS of information, none stop. I really am learning a whole lot, considering I never knew a thing about real estate. I would say a good 50% is learning/information on how best to proceed, the other 50% is “pep talk” and selling more education, which in reality is probably key. As you said, many people pay and attend then never put the information to work for them. I don’t intend to be one of those people. I’ll get back to you after I flip my first house. Oh yeah, they also teach you other ways to make money in real estate. Thanks Armando/Linda (instructor/mentor)!
Let me start by saying I went about this whole Armando thing a lil’ different then most on this site. My wife and I had previously flipped a property in 2007 -08 right at the verge of a bad market. We walked away with a large check 60k+. we had no idea what to do with the $ but pay debts off or down. Couldnt secure another loan on a property because we had credit but know great paystubs as we already owned a home and I was and am self employed. We had financed the conventional way. (Lot of other variables there but that is the gist of it).
4 weeks ago changed our lives as we were in a rush to go somewhere when my wife called my name from the basement to turn to a channel. I was irritated cause she was supposed to be getting clothes out the dryer so we can hit the road. lol when I turned it was Armandos infomercial! I sat for a minute….minute turned into the whole show and from there we was hooked!
I called the numbers on the commercial numerous times cause i would here someone pick up but no one said anything….just blank. Finally I relaized it was faint music playing so i held and someone finally came on. I booked the 1 day seminar and we were ready! We went to the seminar and all I kept talking about was I know he’s gonna sell us something and low and behold they didnt dissapoint! lol I had a set number in my head of what we would pay. Let me say this to you…….I paid 3 times the amount for a 3 day seminar. I was very, very, very, skeptical but I fought thru it and immediately started reading the packet of books as well as listening to the updated 2010 cds that night that came along with our purchase! The sheer volume of information was great!
Now the 3 day seminar……My wife and I could not wait for it! We went and i thought for the amount of money we paid that Armando was sure to be there. lol he was not, but his real estate investors were there and they are beast with education. The wealth of knowledge was, and is tremendous! The strategies can be done but I will say one downfall is they travel from state to state so you have to apply your own citys laws. The basics are there, you have to have a lil common sense though. For example, an llc in utah is different then in md, we pay $300 as Utah is $52. just a lil ground work for you to research.
At the end of that course there is another package and my wife and I both was like there is no way we are paying that kind of money! Wrong again!…….not only did we pay it…….we cant wait to go to California for the further education! there is alot more to the Bus tour over there besides just going. they offer alot of other things that i wont get into because…..well, I paid good money.
I will post again when we get back….we go at the end of July and will return beginning of Aug. I actually met alot of people from the 3 day seminar who come back tuesday from the tour that just took place. I cant wait to speak with them on wednesday and get the real on what to expect. I really believe that it will be a great experience for them.
I will say in some of the comments i read something about customer service being bad….I will say it is hard to reach someone often, but keep trying till you do. It cant be any worse then trying to reach verizon on the phone( a live person that is)lol .
There are two kinds of people “those that watch things happen” and “those that make things happen”.
Be Steadfast!!!!
I went to his June bus tour a couple weeks ago and it was AMAZING! I can’t stress enough how absolutely life changing it was!!!! He takes you by the hand and shows you EXACTLY what to do!! We even went to houses!!! It was just so amazing and I’m already out there about to close on a property!!! I absolutely recommeend this course!!!
The bus tour was awesome and we just finished our boots on the ground training. Your training program is the best! After going to college and also getting my real estate lisence I felt so unprepared to start a career, but after just three weekends of training with you and your staff I feel so prepared to go out there and make it happen. I will realize my dream! Thank you, Armando for caring so much and sharing all of your knowledge and not holding anything back. You are awesome!
Only 8 DAYS AFTER THE JUNE BUS TOUR, my business partner, 1st Cousin Laura, and I (Both Single moms), have our FIRST ACCEPTED OFFER. We only submitted 2 since the tour and on the second we got an ACCEPTANCE THE NEXT DAY! With a $80 spread! Yee haw, oh yeah baby I’m addicted.
Thanks Paul, Eric, Jordan & ARMANDO and of course,
THE YELLOW BUS…come FOLLOW US!
HAKUNA MATATA! (what a wonderful thing! It’s a PROBLEM FREE PHILOSOPHY!!)
Having been simply looking at useful blog content for our project research and My partner and i happened to stumble on yours. Thanks for the useful info!
This stuff isn’t rocket science, and through Armandos programs one is given everything needed to make this work. He has put together an outstanding group of dedicated, experienced and just plain old great people, and they go above and beyond to help every step of the way.
Of course this doesn’t mean that once you go to a 3 day Workshop, Boots On the Ground and a Bus Trip that you can just sit back and money will fall from the sky into your pockets. This does take work people, not back breaking, physical work, but you have to put the time in to learn the program, break out of your comfort zone and put what you are learning to work for you.
My business partner and I attended a 3 day seminar here in NJ in April 2010. I’m not going to say that we haven’t had ups and downs because we have … it’s inevitable. But, you have to make sure that you learn something with each failure. Since returning from California on the May Bus Tour, we have 4 properties under contract … that’s in 6 weeks time!
This is like getting a college degree in Real Estate Investing … and thanks to Armando we have some of the absolute best teachers in the world guiding and mentoring us! It’s a learning process, and the more you put into it, the quicker it will come together for you.
So, if anyone out there is wondering if this Armando guy is for real and if what he teaches works, I can say for a fact that YES, Armando is the real deal, and follow his blueprint and you will be successful. Believe in yourself, believe in the program, break out of your comfort zone and go for it … you won’t regret it!
And, by the way … so far all of our deals are in Northern NJ, which some believe is a difficult market even now! We truly believe that we can pick up at least 12 more properties before the end of the year! Armando and “Team Montelongo” has definitely given us the tools and the confidence to drastically change our lives and I for one will be forever grateful!
So, don’t look for reasons not to do this, just do it!

Armando seems to preach some questionable tactics, even on his show. I don’t doubt the guy knows his stuff, because he makes lots of money. But his personality seems to override his sense of business most of the time. That said, if Rob and others are making money and can vouch for the program, there is probably a good case for picking up the course. I’m always for getting educated and taking action. If any of you are looking for good education I can personally vouch for the quality of education. Already closed 2 deals and I’m a complete newbie!
thank you very good blog
I WENT 2 A SEMINAR LAST NIGHT AND THEY WANTED MONEY FOR THE 3 DAY CLASS AND I COULD BRING ONE PERSON WITH ME.IT SOUNDS GREAT BUT I WANTED MORE TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT THATS ALOT OF MONEY I DONT HAVE.
I just went to the 3 day workshop, and the information and the books and tape are all an eye opener, even though i have no experience whatso ever in real estate, they seem to know what they were talking about. the workshop it was a bit expensive in this dificult times to find the funds. What i wasn’t impress was the way one of the mentors treated me and my husband,very kaki and sure of himself and he could not answer a simple question i asked,he got offemded over the fact that i wanted to know why wasnt the worshop more about what we were there for to learn the 123 and ABC’s we are not realtors!i try to make my question simpler, but he though it was a competition of words and eulogies,it was just a question with no harm intented. well all those people who were able to go CONGRATULATIONS!! AND HOPE YOU DO WHAT YOU’RE SET UP TO DO!!!. I mean it. send us a note as to how it when and keep in touch! best regards to all!!

I went to a seminar tonight and was really pumped up. I live in Oklahoma which is the 49th poorest state in the Union. I am overdrawn at the bank and my next paycheck is already spent and they wanted me to pay them $1497 for the program. May be a good deal but was ridiculed because I didn’t get out of my seat to sign up and pay my money. Was told if I just sat on my “duff” all I would get was nothing. He was insinuating, too, that all of us that didn’t get up were stupid. He told us early on that he was sitting in the back of a seminar with Armando himself when Armando said, “We do this to help these people.” Trust me, they do it for the money. If they wanted to help people, they would consider the fact that some people could use a payment plan or something. With all his money, he could figure out some way to help those of us that live hand to mouth. If we had $1500 we wouldn’t be able to spend it all right then. How about, we write you a check and when we do our first deal, you cash it then? Their system probably works, but not everyone can afford it and we aren’t “stupid” because we can’t.
can someone tell me if in January he will have some live events in south Florida or does he have a list some where i can check..
I live in Loiusville,Ky and attended the seminar I think in September and could not afford to join,but will be able to in Febuary,and was wondering where the live events will be in Febuary.Hopefully it will not be to far from Kentucky.But could you please send me the dates and locations of the live events in Febuary thanks.
Armando is the real deal! I went to a free seminar in March 2010 and liked what I heard … so much so, that I signed up for the April 3 day seminar. Again, I though it was outstanding and immediately signed up for the May Bus Trip in CA. The Bus Trip was nothing short of phenominal, Armando is like the Energizer Bunnym this guy gives 110% all of the time!
My business partner and I are now in Armando’s Millionaire Challenge and we are working our butts off … but you know what … we are making it happen. We should each make an absolute minimum of 500 K this year … our goal is 1 million, but even if we don’t reach that, we most certainly did not fail! You have to set your goals high, and go balls to the wall to reach them.
I think many people who attend the seminars believe that “hey, I paid the money, I was there” … and then they just sit and wait for $$$ to fall from the sky into their pockets? It doesn’t happen like that people, and Armando tell you that straight up, you have to work hard to make this work. The risks are high for sure, but the rewards are even higher. You can’t let your fears, or those of family and friends hold you back. Armando’s system works, just follow his blueprint, work your ass off and you will make it happen!
Live the dream!
Thanks Armando, Veronica and everyone on TEAM MONTELONGO!!!
hey guys just had a question,i was unable to attend the live event in my area recently so i was wondering could i get the book for now,does it basically cover alot of what is in the live event..thanks for any info
mike
You guys need to wake up. I do believe Armando knows what he’s doing, but if you think he’s going to just give you his secrets, tips and tricks for free, YOU are a fool. Think about it, if he gave up his secrets, what kind of business man would he be? Only difference between him and other guys that are successful is that he is willing to teach you, for the right price. I was taught by someone that has a net worth of over $100 million only because his nephew was like my brother. Hes been offered thousands by people to pick his brain and he has turned them all down. I was going to go to his free live event to find out what he had to say but seems as though its only to get people to pay for the REAL seminars where he will give you the real info. I personally will not pay to learn things I already know, but if you can afford it, go for it.
SO WORTH IT!!! Yes, it seems like an awful lot of money to invest in a 3 day class, or to travel around on a bus… but I learned more in 3 days than I did in my 4 years of college. No time is wasted. Its jam-packed with information that you don’t learn in regular business courses. They are coming back to our state in a few weeks and my husband and I can’t WAIT!!! Several people are skeptical, including some of our family member, in fact, we had to hide some things (like how much it cost) to my husband’s family. And it can be a waste of money, if you don’t apply what you’ve learned. The people who complain are the people who pay the money, sit through the class, and then wait for money to fall out of the sky, and it never comes. If you take the initiative to apply what you are taught, then you’ll be financially independent before you know it!
No, the book is more like a story, with just some begining information. Its good, and can be motivating, but you really learn what to do and how by attending the event.
Those of you who have succeeded w/ this course, I need some advice for my 24 yr. old
ex-Navy son: if you had to borrow $$ to do this and put all your energies into it,
would you? I hope this is not a rip-off for our veterans (or anyone,for that matter)
Thanks for any input…a Navy Mom.
HEY IF YOU NEED TO GO TO A 3 DAY EVENT, I NEED SOMEONE TO PAY HALF BY THIS COMING AUGUST 12, 2011 FOR THE SAN DIEGO SEMINAR. SEMINAR STARTS AUGUST 12 AT 9 A.M. AND IT WILL GO ON AUGUST 12 THROUGH THE 14TH.
My son and I went to the 3 day event in California in Auguest, 2011. It was the best seminar I have been to. I learned so much and the networking was incredible. We just had our first offer accepted and are working very hard to get everything done. People who say this is hard work are absolutely correct. We work everyday from 12:00 noon until about 2:00 AM. This is hard work, but we love it and we know we are going to be wealthy. I agree the cost is astronomical. We have been able to keep up so far. We are now in the Master Mentoring program and must return to California to work with our Master Mentor. If you can afford it, take a chance — it’s worth it, but remember, it’s hard work. The profits do not fall out of the sky — you have to work for it. Have a great day!
AWESOME so far!! And we haven’t even done the bus tour yet! We are SO excited about being our own “boss” and being in control of our future. I know this program will work and you really CAN find the money if you are motivated. Go for it!!
