1 Year On in the Weath Academy
Is Touchstone Educations Wealth Acadamy worth it??. Once I signed up to the Wealth Academy and paid my £15k, I've felt a tad abandoned, it was nearly 2 months before I met my first mentor. Here is your video library, crack on, with no guidance or direction on what you needed to learn. The money back guarantee is a bit of a con as you have to review everything in the library even if it’s not part of your business plan, so I wanted to do SA and BRR but you have to review everything including commercial, deal packaging, auctions and a host of other videos. You must attend 4 standup calls a month, meet a mentor every month for 20 minutes. If your mentor is not available, you must pick someone else and you must do everything they advise you to do. Looking a videos of the standup meetings doesn’t count, you must be present. There are a few other things so read the small print and decide within 14 days. I looked at the onboarding process and sent in some simple recommendations to improve the experience for the students and provide some structure to the learning. A small survey could have been down so that Touchstone could point you in the right direction, but this was completely ignored by the main office, in fact they didn’t even respond, even though 2 seperate mentors thought it was a good idea. As I said, once you have signed up, your just dumped in a video library and feel a bit lost. The library, which is good and informative. It is broken down into manageable chunks and gives you the basics to progress, nothing can prepare you for the actual hands-on experience. The 2-day course is excellent value for £99 and a real eye opener into property investment, but the Wealth Academy at £15k is not, but this is only my opinion mind you. After paying so much money, it does spur you on to make property investment a success. If I could do it all again, I would attend the 2-day course and then research what I want my business plan to be, for example I wanted to do Serviced Accommodation (Bigger Returns), however after checking with my local council discovered that they would not issue any new licences, so I had to rethink my whole business plan. Work out what you want to do, research it, does it work in the area that you want, you can always take induvial courses to target your business goals. Good luck, it's not easy
