Customer Reviews

Needed Perspective and Very Well Written

Why do I rate this book highly? This book encourages people to do more research and make more informed decisions. People receive enormous amounts of data about real estate and it is often macro in nature. David Lereah ultimately suggests that "Location Location Location", while an over-used term, is THE factor of importance. He is correct. Most real estate professionals have been working hard to encourgae people to apply local factors to their analysis of real estate. It is true that, often, people talk about real estate in generic terms and can expect generic positive results. David Lereah's message is sound and a refreshing voice.

Outstanding Insight

A very useful read. Mr. Lereah provides excellent insights about real estate investing, whether it's labeled "buyer" or "seller" market. In very readable style, he outlines the factors we all should look into, when buying our own home or considering other real estate investment. Former US House Speaker Tip O'Neill was right on the money about politics being local...and David Lereah is on the money (for all of us) about the LOCAL factors affecting real estate.
