Alex - I went onto the site. For this particular workshop, there is not yet a location. No faculty are listed. No names on the site that I can find. Anyone? If you're interested, you can go to Palm Springs at the end of April and spend $599 to learn about the Fundamentals of Real Estate Investment, offered by this same group.
