在新西兰
以下是我今天收到的， 从Auckland Property Investors Association 发来的email.
Good afternoon
I trust this email finds you well.
This morning the NZ Herald published an article regarding a Ronovationz DVD that had been distributed to APIA members. The story has evolved quickly over the course of the morning and I feel that it is important for you to hear from me as to the actions we are taking to protect the Association and our members.
We were founded in 1995 with the core belief that learning and education are the key to unlocking your growth potential. Over the years we have successfully supported ordinary Kiwis to becoming responsible landlords and making sound financial decisions with your rental portfolios. We believe in high ethical standards and do not condone any form of unfair exploitation of business counterparts whether they be tenants, contractors, vendors, or buyers. Extracted comments from the DVD as reported by the Herald do not reflect that of our values. As an orgnaisation, we do not condone the practices preached.
As with many other non-profit organisations, we rely on the support of both members and sponsors to maintain our high standards of service. From time to time, materials supplied by sponsors are distributed to APIA members in good faith. The concerned DVD is one such material. It was produced and supplied to us by Ronovationz. Our deficiency in this instance has been that we had not vetted the material closely enough before distribution. For that, I take full responsibility.
With respect to the article and the impact it has had on APIA, our members, and sponsors, I would like to report to you the following:
I will keep the membership abreast of any further developments. In the mean time, please do not hesitate to write to me directly if you have any specific concerns or inquiries.
- Distribution of the DVD has been immediately halted;
- A media statement has been released to major outlets and published on the APIA website;
- In the coming days we will be reviewing the appropriateness of all sponsored materials distributed to members including the entirety of the concerned DVD;
- We will be conducting an internal review of our relationship with Ronovationz, taking into account the totality of its business values, to ensure that if the relationship is continued, it would be in the best interest of our members and other business partners. We will also be seeking a formal meeting with Ronovationz.
Kind wishes
Sarina Gibbon General Manager
Auckland Property Investors' Association

APIA也是感觉到公众的愤怒了怕引火烧身赶快撇清

这个不是事，人家就靠这个提高知名度

一直都觉得APIA的信誉也不是很高，现在可到好了，这个一搞，名誉直接扫地了。。。哈哈

这次踢到了个硬石头...APIA的头号sponsor ANZ已经出来叫了，B&T是下一个

ANZ说什么啦？

ANZ bank says it is appalled by the tactics and is reviewing its sponsorship of the Auckland Property Investors Association (APIA) following revelations in today's Weekend Herald.
Another sponsor, Barfoot & Thompson, says it will review the video on Monday with the company's directors "and consider our sponsorship once we have all the facts".

哦怪不得呢。但是为什么投资房产要加入个组织呢？你们都是组织上的么？房子少的话就不用加入？
评论
我没加入组织啊，我是小户，估计人家也不会看得起。。。哈哈
反正我一直对APIA的印象也不是太好

有人想整豆腐教吧，阿海那么高调~~

我在2001年就加入了APIA. 对于房产投资初哥来说，加入是benefit远远大于cost的。当然随着时间的推移，自己的投资技能不断提升，再加上现在的网络资讯比以前发达太多了，那么APIA对我己经不那么重要了。但我一直保持着membership, 毕竟在投资初期，它给了我很大的帮助。

豆腐教主生在新西兰可惜了。以他的本性，如果在中国，搞传销，或忽悠老年人买买保健品，估计一年可以赚他在新西兰十年的钱。
评论
教主真有可能是个一心向善的人。从他开始做JP说，那个起码得有那个追求吧。然后他光招学员把成功经验分享，要说作为房产投资者他肯定不是个最大的吧，应该有不少比他大的。还是想当个好人的。可人性有两面，正反大概总战斗。一不留神，就让贪婪的心占了上风，迷糊了是非。
其实投资挣钱靠眼光是没错的，整成套路就不靠谱了。你高明的话，靠判断就能挣钱，不是靠乘人之危，走偏门。
评论
他說的話沒有錯的, 一般investor都知道找這些盤好, 但是太culturally insensitive了...
评论
其实他教的也都是一些基本知识，大部分investor都知道把握这种机会可以买到好盘。但是这种是自己去领悟的东西，他刻录成光盘发给学员就有点落人把柄的意思了，我没花时间去研究DVD的全部内容，看新闻说里面好像提到了一些不符合道德甚至违反平等交易法规的手段，这个很可能会产生信誉危机直接影响到他的整盘房产教学生意。
