You will go through full Real Estate closing processes and learn all of the steps involved from offers, inspections, appraisals to sealing the deals and managing many properties.

Complete lending system for property leverage.

Using our simulator named REIS (The Real Estate Investment Simulator) will allow you to understand the complicated world of mortgages and lending. Knowing what you’re getting into when you take on debt is extremely important and if you don’t understand the debt structure you assume you increase your chances of failure dramatically. A complete financing system has been built into the simulator that allows creative financing like that seen in the REAL world lending business including ARMs, balloons, interest only loans, low down, traditional 15 or 30 year notes and more. If you don't know what this stuff is? Don't worry, you can learn all about it in our simulator.

The simulator fully supports rental property!

The simulator has a complete rental market that allows you to rent properties you purchase for long term buy and hold strategies. Yes! the tenants will give you real world problems to deal with as they live in your properties including plumbing problems, building damage, late rent, bad behavior, carpet destruction, pet issues and much.. much.. more. It is amazing how many people make the mistake of buying investment property before realizing how difficult and expensive managing tenants can be!

How it all works!

Simple.. you start our simulation as YOU! You can configure the simulation to start with your salary, monthly expenses, credit score and savings. Then we drop you into our virtual town we named Opportunity Town. You then become a "virtual investor" who can do what you like in the town. Want to invest in rental property? No problem, we have a full rental market and virtual tenants waiting to make your life miserable. Want to fix and flip? No problem - you can shop for bargains in our virtual MLS (Multiple Listing Service). Want to see if you can get rich with foreclosures? We have you covered, just drop by the court house steps and bid on some property. Want to know if you can really get rich in Real Estate investing? In our virtual town you can really find out!

Our town has over a hundred thousand residential properties for you to practice with. Using econometric analysis and advanced statistical regression models the Real Estate market in Opportunity Town behaves nearly identical to real markets. It has buyers and sellers, housing inventories in varying neighborhoods, a complete rental market system, sophisticated lending. common governmental regulations, simulated tax benefits and more. It even includes complete interactive tutorials on everything from lending to foreclosures to help aid you in your educational experience. Everything you need to practice and learn before investing in the REAL world markets is here!

You can even select what type of Real Estate market to simulate! Are you going to be simulating the costly city of New York? Or a less expensive place somewhere in Texas? This allows you to be YOU and lets you realistically experience if you have what it takes to make it to the big bucks! If you don't have what it takes? Just start over, learn from your mistakes and try again... and again.. and again.. we don't mind.

Learn Real Estate success by DOING!

Although it is probably not a bad idea to read quality books on Real Estate investing, listen to audio tapes, take Real Estate classes and learn all you can before you invest, nothing.. and we do mean nothing.. will prepare you better than actual good old fashion practice. No book, coach, guru, audio tape, video, DVD, class or course can provide you with the level of sophisticated practice that our software simulation can. Only REIS (The Real Estate Investment Simulator) can truly prepare you for the onslaught of challenges that you will encounter when you risk your hard earned money in the REAL world. If you are timid or fearful of investing then take heart. Working with this simulator will greatly enhance your courage and make you a more confident investor by beating you senseless with real world problems and teaching you through experience what works and what doesn't.

Personal coaches or Real Estate consultants offering their services easily can cost you thousands of dollars. Classes, courses and workshops that teach you about Real Estate are also very expensive. Compared to these other offers, our Real Estate Investment Simulator is an incredible, unbelievable bargain! It is completely FREE to play!
