The Reason Why Inside Track Where Always Destined to Go Bust!
The property seminar arm of Inside Track has gone into administration. While this news may have surprised many novice investors, it came as no surprise to the serious property professional.
For many years the Inside Track property company had been the most vocal of the property education companies. Its advertisements and free seminars led even some of the most conservative people, to part with thousands of pounds of their hard earned money. These people where desperate to grab the dream of becoming a property millionaire.
Not that long ago they were enjoying the fruits of their labour, and making millions of pounds in profit. They blame their rapid downfall on the credit crunch and how it has adversely affected their position to get the types of mortgages that make buying properties financially viable.
The truth is that inside track where always overexposed and vulnerable to any downturn in the property market.
One of the problems with Inside Track has always been that their philosophy never seriously took into account potential changes in the property market. They emerged onto the scene at a time when property prices where increasing dramatically.
At the time, their approach of buying as many off plan properties as you can, with a small deposit for each, then waiting for the expected price rises at completion, then pulling out huge sums of money to re-invest or do what ever you liked with, worked well. However, the problem was always that their property investing strategy was inherently built on a notion that the price of the off plan properties were ALWAYS going to be significantly higher at completion than they were when the deposit was put down on the properties, several months earlier.
The other problem they began to face is that as time went by, the increasing amount of investment companies that popped up promising similar things to them, meant that off plan developments where becoming over saturated with investors. As more and more investors competed with each other for less and less buyers and tenants this brought the prices of resell and rentals for the properties right down,
Inside Track realised early on that people where prepared to pay thousands of pounds to them, for the promise of becoming property millionaires. The beauty for Inside Track was that they could convince people to part with large amounts of money, without actually having to give them any cast iron promises as to the returns they will make.
It was simple for inside track to blame the property markets ups and downs, or the financial market, if investments didn’t go according to plan.
While Jim Moore, the founder of Inside Track, made millions of pounds, the everyday people that where buying into the Inside Track hype lost their life savings, their homes and in some cases their marriages and families because they chose to follow the Inside Track dream.
It must have been obvious to Inside Track that their way of investing in property had ceased to be as profitable as it used to be when they first started out. The catalogue of complaints and the amount of people threatening to sue them, continued to grow at a startling rate. Then BANG! The credit crunch hits and very quickly it becomes all too apparent that the wisest thing for them to do financially was to fold now, before things got even worse.
Experienced investors have for years, warned against the perils of investing with Inside Track. Yet, because of their massive advertising budget, they had a huge presence in national media. This coupled with the slick sales talk that unprepared people were getting at their well organised seminars, meant that ordinary people were being convinced to part with thousands of pounds, in order to try and achieve their goal of being the next property millionaire.
Learning the skills of effective property investing can be one of the most attainable ways; it is possible for the average person on the street to accrue immense wealth. However, it can also be the easiest way to make yourself bankrupt very quickly.
What people where paying Inside Track for was available for free online, there was nothing ground breaking in what they were teaching. If you want to learn how to make money from property, you don’t need to pay thousands of pounds for the privilege; you just need to make a concerted effort to do whatever it takes to get the right property education, no matter what your budget.
