Invest in property with "no money down", legit or scam?

I went on radio last week talking about what I'd uncovered about The I Quadrant in one of my previous posts - an investigative piece that took me several months to complete. 

If you'd like to listen to the podcast, you can find it here.

During the talkshow, I chatted with Ryan Huang as we discussed:

• The rise of property investment schemes being advertised all around Facebook, Google and social media
  
  
• Can you really own multiple properties with "no money down"?
  
  
• The allure of earning passive income from rental
  
  
• Is it legal? (Yes.)
  
  
• The recent crisis (tenants not being able to pay rent, lobbying against landlords, etc) has shown how the risks can work against you.
  
  
• Your rental is not always guaranteed, but your mortgage liability is.
  
  
• The big questions:
• Can you consistently find tenants?
• Can you confidently raise the rental year-on-year?
  
• If not, can you find a skilled property agent who can manage and increase the rentals for you?
  
  
• Working with co-investors...what are the considerations?
  
  
• Investing in property vs. REITs (real estate investment trusts), and why it is so much easier to simply invest in a REIT
• Let someone else do all the administrative work + managing tenants
• Lower capital and downside 
  
  
• The big risks that these ads don't really tell you
  
  
• The UPSELLs to expect after you've attended the course
