I'm always amazed at how some people can read only one point of view and then form an opinion. Since the person writting this chose to include the Money Magazine article on me, I'm adding my response to the article below. It's the other side of the story. "Needless to say, I was very disappointed with the overall negative tone Stephen Gandel from Money Magazine chose to take with his recent article on Foreclosures.com. My gut feeling about Stephen from the very beginning was that he was looking for a negative angle to exploit and I was right. That was the reason why I was not comfortable giving him all the financial information he requested and thank God that I didn't. He would have just twisted everything around and used it to support his negative angle as he did with the entire article. Past reporters have asked me for proof of my success and I've given it to them...names, addresses, everything. They however were trustworthy people. I simply didn't trust Stephen. He clearly had a hidden agenda and was NOT honest about how he intended to write this story when asked. I did supply him with my 2006 tax returns, but that was not enough. And he dares to question my integrity. More disturbing was reading this very big misquote: Note True: "And while he initially said he bought all his properties his own name, after MONEY said it had found no record of them, he said that he buys properties through an undisclosed private company." The Truth: Stephen followed me around for 2 days in Los Angeles. While we were in my car, out door knocking, Stephen asked me, "Do you buy your properties in you name?" My response; "I sign the contract in my name and take title under my LLC." What's surprising to me is the Stephen and I discussed this on the phone before he printed the article (as well as talked to Alexis about it separately) but he still got it wrong in his article. In fact, he wrote as if it was a matter of fact and it was not. Also omitted in his article was his requested conversation with a homeowner in default that I helped by buying her house. She had nothing but good things say about how thankful she was for my help -- but there is no mention of this conversation anywhere in the article. When I asked Stephen why he didn't include his conversation in the article, he claims it was because he couldn't verify her information. What's odd about this reason is that he also said he couldn't confirm some of my information, but he still used it in the article. Why does Money Magazine have someone who has no faith in real estate, knows little about it, and only wishes to write about stocks (per his own admission) write about real estate? Especially when real estate has consistently out performed stocks. Good question don't you think? So in the end, he simply wrote what he wanted and used the facts as they suited him to write his negative article. Too bad he didn't share the wealth of information he learned from the many days he spent with us, so their readers can learn the right way to buy foreclosures and help people at the same time. I'm thankful that you found us now." Concerning the person who claims that Foreclosures is a scam, considering who wrote it I think its very clear that they too have an agenda. So please seek all the facts before you decide what we are all about. We truly help people who have no other option and make a good living doing it. What's wrong with that? Best Wishes, Daryl

Wow, Freedom Solutions of Lodi, CA is at it again. Now they had one of their employees write a negative post on us, even though none of them have ever been a client or taken a single course from Foreclosures.com. There is a reason they are posting negative comments. It is called deflection of their own misgivings.
