<p>Unless you&#8217;ve been hiding under a rock for the last couple of weeks, then you probably know Preston Ely&#8217;s re-releasing his <a href="http://www.ProbateRealEstateSecrets.com">Probate course</a> this <strong>Wednesday 8/14 at Noon</strong>.</p>
<p>Now I&#8217;ve had a couple of folks email me asking for my honest opinion.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s interesting about this is that I have a rather unique perspective on this, because what most people don&#8217;t realize is that&#8230;</p>
<h3>I actually played a part in making it.</h3>

<p>I won&#8217;t go into all the details here - feel free to watch the short video clip to the right.  I recorded it a few weeks ago for Preston.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a short bit while we were on vacation, sharing my part in the whole thing. And you get to see my two cutie red heads!  (See video to right)</p>
<p>But let&#8217;s just say when you listen to the audios, I&#8217;m the other voice you hear.  <img src='http://reitips.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' title="What Most People Dont Know About Preston Elys Probate Course" /> </p>
<p>Having said that, I actually have a copy of this course - and I see Preston&#8217;s added a few nifty bells and whistles.</p>
<h3>FYI, it&#8217;ll probably sell out Wednesday sometime.</h3>
<p>When he re-opens the doors, I believe he&#8217;ll have another few hundred (somewhere under a thousand) of them available.  The first batch sold out in 5-ish hours, so if you&#8217;re interested you might want to get on the <a href="http://www.ProbateRealEstateSecrets.com">early notification list thingy</a>.</p>
<p>Also, since I have the original audios on my laptop, I went ahead and placed some <strong>sample audios below</strong>.  These are <strong>actual excerpts from the course</strong>, to give you a little better idea of what it&#8217;s like.</p>
<p><strong>So for what it&#8217;s worth, here&#8217;s my quick, personal review&#8230;</strong></p>
<h3><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-288" style="border: 0pt none; float: right;" title="Probates by Preston: The Good" src="http://reitips.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/thumbsup.jpg" alt="What Most People Dont Know About Preston Elys Probate Course"  />Probates by Preston: <span style="color: #df0000;">The Good</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>It&#8217;s a solid course, with solid education. </strong></li>
<li>The audios &#8220;rock&#8221; in my opinion <img src='http://reitips.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' title="What Most People Dont Know About Preston Elys Probate Course" /> and should be consumed first</li>
<li><strong>It&#8217;s not boring </strong>(think &#8220;dialogue&#8221; rather than &#8220;monologue&#8221;)</li>
<li>In addition to the course audio and manual, you get some other cool stuff, like <strong>Preston&#8217;s super duper marketing letter</strong>, <strong>some candid Q&amp;A</strong>, etc.</li>
<li>It&#8217;s notably devoid of stuff you don&#8217;t need.</li>
<li>It&#8217;s <strong>very reasonably priced</strong> at just under $300 (much less than most others out there)</li>
</ul>
<h3><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-289" style="border: 0pt none; float: right;" title="Probates by Preston: The Bad" src="http://reitips.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/thumbsdown.jpg" alt="What Most People Dont Know About Preston Elys Probate Course"  />Probates by Preston: <span style="color: #df0000;">The Bad</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>Personally I think the manual should have been proof read a little better.  The education&#8217;s solid, and covers what you need it to.  But frankly <strong>there are some grammer mistakes I noticed</strong>.  Not a deal killer for most - but I&#8217;m kind of an English nerd and anal about such things.</li>
<li>I also <strong>wish the manual had been in a 3 ring binder rather than spiral bound</strong>.  But I guess the spiral bound is a little cheaper to produce and fits on a shelf easier.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Probates by Preston: <span style="color: #df0000;">The Bottom Line</span></h3>
<p>The fact is, doing probate deals isn&#8217;t rocket science.  I&#8217;ve done a number of them myself, using a similar model to Preston&#8217;s.</p>
<p>But as with anything, there&#8217;s always a learning curve, so why not take short cuts whenever you have the chance?</p>
<p><strong>This course is a solid short cut to a great profit center. </strong>If you&#8217;re interested in learning how to profit from probate deals, then I&#8217;m very comfortable recommending it.</p>
<p>Yes, there are other courses out there, and I honestly I&#8217;ve seen a few of them, but not all.  But I know <a href="http://ProbateRealEstateSecrets.com">this one&#8217;s good for the money</a>.</p>
<h3>Stuff to help you figure it out&#8230;</h3>
<p>When I go to Costco, I lovess me some free samples.  Often I&#8217;ll buy stuff only after I&#8217;ve had a taste test or three.</p>
<p>So in the spirit of Costco, <strong>you&#8217;ll find a handful of sample clips from the course audio below</strong>&#8230;</p>
