Committed for Better Business

Breaking into the real estate market is not an easy task, but with the help of Carleton H. Sheets, it can be a lot easier. Author of the best-selling program No Down Payment, Sheets allows the public to benefit from his experience in making millions in real estate. His no down payment home study course has been successful for decades and he continues to provide educational opportunities to the public through his online learning and home study courses.

Carleton Sheets was born in Illinois, where he lived with his parents and younger brother for several years before moving to Ohio. He went to college and graduated and eventually got married and had two children. During his career he has moved throughout the United States with his various positions within the workforce. He has lived in Illinois, Ohio, California, Georgia, North Carolina, and Florida.

His entrepreneurial spirit began as a child when he took the initiative to mow the lawn and deliver newspapers in the neighborhood for extra money. He borrowed money from his parents to start their businesses which he paid back as he earned money. When he was ready to join the corporate world, he took a position at Armstrong Cork and then at Lykes Pasco, where he was fired for not having enough experience.

So he decided to venture into the world of real estate where he had a rocky start. Having obtained his real estate license, he attempted to sell commercial properties starting with an apartment building. This was unsuccessful as the building needed some work. Carleton took this as a sign and used his contacts to negotiate a partnership to purchase the building himself. Carleton had his partners put up all the money while he took the lead in setting up the deal and coordinating it. A year and a half later, the building was sold at a profit that was split three ways.

After five years of similar investment opportunities with and without partners, Carleton’s status as a successful real estate investor skyrocketed. He now owned nearly five hundred rental units. He earned a reputation for finding lucrative deals, building creative financial procedures, rehabbing properties, and selling them at a profit.

The more successful he was, the more he wanted to give back to the community and allow others to benefit from his experience. He has authored and co-authored courses for both the National Association of Realtors and the Real Estate Securities and Syndication Institute. He also taught real estate investment strategies to the local community.

In 1984, No Money Down was born. Partnering with the Professional Education Institute, or PEI, Carlton Sheets began a campaign to market their program to the masses. He went on the speaking circuit, was invited to a variety of TV and radio talk shows, appeared in magazines and had the longest running infomercial in history. Today, he is semi-retired but still continues to invest and write. He recently modified his courses to adapt them to the Internet as a means for millions to access and learn his real estate knowledge, all at no cost.
