Can Bill Bronchick Coaching Work for You?
Today I am looking at Bill Brochick’s seminars, books, coaching and advice.
Hey, hello. My name is Paul, the Real Estate Spy. Thanks for stopping by for my Bill Bronchick review.
I hope you have a full mug of your fave dark roast and a few minutes to hang here. I’d love for you to check out some of the other reviews on my site as well as the one you came for!
This site really has one purpose… prepare you for things like what happened to me in REI.
Before we jump into the review, tell me:
>>What brought you here? Are you a casual browser? Killing half an hour while your kid gets their teeth cleaned?
Or are you a serious researcher? Looking into real estate investing as your ticket out of your current station?
Your tediously taxing 9-5 . . . your 50-hours-a-week hero to zero, slaving for the guy in the tie . . . your bank account that always sucks wind by the end of the month?
If you’re the latter, I can relate. Or I should say, I could relate. I used to be that guy.
I did what you’re doing, and then I got bold and took the plunge.
I was on my way. Paul the BIG REAL ESTATE Investor with the whole “Mom, look no hands” mentality.
- I acquired investment properties and was set to stay at it and get more. -I was on my way to financial freedom, ya feel me?
And then everything crashed, and I found myself at the bottom of a proverbial financial hole looking at a tiny piece of sky, above my head.
>>Took me seven years to crawl out of the hole and start being able to breathe again.<<
Along the way back to the land of the living, I met a guy with “golden gloves” award in internet marketing. He introduced me to the concept of digital property management, and the rest is history.
Still love real estate, but I’d rather do this. There’s less risk and as much if not more profit potential. ‘Cause digital properties are way cheaper. You can learn about those here.
One of my potential clients told me yesterday on the phone that Google is the real estate of this century. I believe him. I had never heard of it put that way. But he was right. If I own a property on the first spot of Google, I stand to get lots and lots of traffic, lots and lots of customers and…well you know the rest.
Here’s the Bronchick review:
UPDATE 2019: Thanks to a reader, please make sure you do more investigation on Bill Bronchick before moving forward.

Seminars and Webinars
Bill Bronchick is active in conducting seminars and webinars. He also hosts the occasional multiple-day real estate investing boot camp. As of this writing, Bronchick is scheduled to lead a seminar on wholesaling investment properties in Salt Lake City, Utah, at a cost per participant of $200. This is the early bird special. The seminar is called Wholesaling Houses From A-Z.
A few days after that seminar, Bronchick is scheduled to speak at the Real Estate Investors Club of Los Angeles at their monthly meeting. A few days after that he leads an advanced wholesaling boot camp in Norfolk,Virginia.
This boot camp is designed to teach participants everything they need to know to find, evaluate, negotiate, and flip deals for cash. It comes with a couple of bonuses–the Wholesaling Home Study Course, and the Power Real Estate Negotiating course. The early bird special for the boot camp is $597 with the option of bringing a guest for free. Space is limited to 20 people at this boot camp.
A hard money lending seminar in Denver, Colorado, is scheduled the same month following the Norfolk boot camp.
Past events within the last couple of months of this writing included a lease option strategies workshop in Denver, Colorado, an investing-in-small apartments boot camp, also in Colorado, and an asset protection workshop in Dallas-Fort Worth.

A Look at LegalWiz
Another free resource is Bronchick’s free blog posts on LegalWiz.com. He posts currently and actively, publishing blogs approximately every two weeks. Blog topics include Using Facebook as a real estate investor, Converting your real estate notes into cash, Seven ways to find real estate deals, and Raising private capital for real estate.
There are blog posts that go back 2007. In other words, at this site there are almost 10 years worth of blogs.
Is it all a SCAM? Complaint Review:
I checked out independent reviews of Bronchick’s programs and courses.
At blogspot.com, a complaint was posted about the sparse amount of one-on-one coaching that a particular participant received in the program. Bronchick personally replied with an apology and the explanation that a person hired to run the coaching program did not do a good job and was no longer with the company.
Others who posted on the same thread were positive about their coaching experience.
RipoffReport.com had a complaint submitted in December 2014. There was another complaint filed in May of the same year. Bronchick responded to that one.
In short, although there are a couple of complaints out there, there isn’t enough bad press to discredit Bronchick. Bronchick’s company has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
So to sum up: Bronchick definitely knows his stuff inside and out, both from an investor perspective and also from a legal perspective. He’s got lots of resources available, charged and free.
He’s current and active in the real estate industry and overall seems respected, both within and without the real estate community. The prices for his products and programs are standard.
OK, the rest is over to you.
Thanks again for stopping by. I hope this was helpful. Please check out my other reviews.
