My copy just arrived today - couldn't put it down!

While there are many good books out there, this one bu A.D. Kessler stands head and shoulders above them all.I say a advertisement on the internet for this book and tape offer and jumped on it, because I had heard of A.D. Kessler from a real estate buddy here in Florida. He acknowledged that A.D. Kessler was the grandfather of "nothing down" real estate deals. And he said that A.D. Kessler was more than just a promoter or a "mee-too" writer of books trying to capitalize on the popularity of real estate, he said that A.D. Kessler has done it! He knows this business inside and out and all points in between.My copy arrived today along with the video. One of the first things that impressed me about Kessler is that he put the importance on people, not real estate. According to Kessler "The real key to real estate is people not property." And throughout the book the emphasis is on people. Makes sense, after all, who owns those properties and/or wants to buy them--people right?I was also impressed to see the flaring reviews, in fact, raving reviews for Kessler by people like Robert Allen, Albert Lowry, Howard Ruff and Robert Bruss. In fact, Robert Allen wrote the forward to A.D. Kesslers book and attributed his success to what he learned from working with A. D. Kessler and refers to Kessler as "the real estate professionals professional." And isn't Allen supposed to be the King of Nothing Down?While some of the information is not new, A.D. Kessler covers it in a way that is new and different. He writes in an easy to read style even though his system is quite complex. He makes it appear simple.Kessler shows how to make money in good times and in bad times. There is information on lease purchases, exchanges and more. The book is over 300 pages but reading it was such a breeze, that it seemed like 50 pages.There is an advertisement in the back flap of the book for his seminars, but I didn't notice an arm forcing me to send it in. This one star reviewer (yeah it is really just one guy) makes me laugh. You get this book which is worth $19.95 retail and a video shipped for only $7 and he is complaining? Talk about the glass being half full! I plan on using A.D. Kesslers advice to buy properties, all with nothing down. I'll let you know how I make out.

#1 of the 10 best books

A Fortune At Your Feet is the best book on real estate investing. In particular, it is the best book on how to buy real estate creatively. A.D. Kessler is uniquely qualified to write on creative real estate investing; he created the term "creative real estate investing", owns the federally registered trademark and copyright and founded the concept with his first win/win deal back in 1946.A.D. Kessler says that you can make $250,000 per year on one deal a month using none of your own money. What is really exceiting is that his students have done it.A Fortune At Your Feet is over 300 pages jamm packed with powerful information. It includes 21 chapters and 3 appendices. The millenium edition is updated to include the new tax laws.I highly recommend A Fortune At Your Feet if your goal is true financial independence.

Fortune At Your Feet

I teach a beginning real estate class at the College of Alameda, in CA. I use this book as a text. Mr. Kessler's presents an excellent introduction to investing because it focuses on the importance of people, not the technical aspects of property analysis. He presents powerful and unique ways for the average investor to create "good deals" when buying real estate. By focusing on finding sellers who have a problem, and teaching the readers to be problem solvers, this book becomes a valuable resource for the real estate entrepreneur. If you can solve people problems with creative purchases, you don't need extensive analytical tools. In fact, if you can't analyze a real estate purchase on a napkin, it is probably not a doable deal. My students like the author's emphasis on what wealth is and how to maintain it. And they love the "real world" examples. We discuss and elaborate on them in class every week. I highly recommend the book.Jon RichardsCollege of Alameda...

Worth owning, reding, and re-reading several times,

As opposed to the 50 years of collective experience of 5 or 6 coauthors, this definitive document outlines and analyzes over 50 years of experience of one apparently insightful and highly intelligent individual. This easy-to-read book goes as quickly as a detective novel, but each chapter contains ideas and concepts which the author has demonstrated to be worthwhile moneymakers in his hands. Moreover, Dr. Kessler tells you HOW he has made money for himself and others using these ideas.Buy it!! You'll like it!!

The Best Real Estate Book Yet!

Of the tens of real estate books in the store, none can approach the validity, honesty and clarity that A.D. Kessler demonstrates in this truly how-to book. His personal anecdotes and case histories make the subject come alive. Not only did I get much more than I expected from this book, and am now involved in making money in real estate as a result of my reading it, my older brother is now deeply into it, (my copy) and he has vowed to start investing for profit using some of A.D. Kessler's ideas and principles. Which brings to mind the fact that the principles in this great book are every bit as unique and important as the techniques. And that is something I found in no other real estate book. In a word, this book is priceless!
