John Beck is a California attorney who lives on a little island called Alameda in San Francisco Bay. He has a small law firm which focused on California real estate matters. In addition to being a Californian lawyer, he is also the author and co-author of numerous books on related to real estate and investing.

His first book, The Forced Sale Workbook, was one of the most influential books ever published in the United States. Another of his books, the Complete Guide to Real Estate Foreclosure Super Bargains in California, which was written together with Ron Starr, is probably the most complete guide to purchasing lender foreclosures published for California foreclosure investors.
In 1992 John Beck published his first complete, specific, step-by-step book on how to invest in Arizona tax liens. The book was entitled How to Invest in Arizona Tax Liens.

Additionally, he is the author of numerous published articles on real estate investing. He also has a column in California newspaper called The Foreclosure Corner. This column is carried in the leading real estate foreclosure newspaper in the "Southland".

Aside from the book, customers will also receive other materials which includes: Making Money with Free & Clear Properties on the Internet Book and a Quick Start Video and Free & Clear CD to Hottest links. And if customers want to go further, they can enroll in an $8,000 worth of consulting program, wherein consultants will guide and answer customers' questions on real estate.

However, we can find negative feedback from his customers online. Most of them complained that the book has no real substance within and even though the product is offered with a 30-day money back guarantee, dissatisfied customers find it hard to get their refund.

Moreover, telemarketers keep calling them just to convince them to invest more so they will become successful with John Beck's system. Some even said that they were charged for a consulting program that never materialized.

In the end, most customers agree that ordering John Beck's program is not as easy as he claims to be. It is not just $50 worth to be able to buy those houses in cheap prices, but it is more than that.
