An updated guide to the real estate market presents the latest information and strategies for investing in real estate that explain how to take advantage of opportunities in a depressed market.
I read this book back in the 80's and it was great. I bought several income producing rnetal properties. I also used this in the early 90's when Clinon-omics created numerous foreclosures and downsizing. I was able to help people save their credit while finding income opportunities for myself.Robert Allens system works. It worked in the 70's. It worked in the 80's It worked in the 90's and oh by the way, it's still working now. I know because I am still using these techniques.
The Get Rich Quicker Plan
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Allen's Nothing Down real estate program may not be "get rich quick" but it sure is get rich quicker. By using his "nothing down" techniques, an average person can amass a fortune very quickly...all with little or none of your own money.I was curious if Allen's methods really worked so I pulled oout the ads from the real estate section of the paper and called a few "don't wanters." Without really knowing what I was doing I found 5 sellers eager to sell me their homes with "nothing down."Folks, this stuff works.

It doesn't take money to make money
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
A very common misconception about money is that it takes money to make money. Have you ever heard that one? I know I have, in fact, I still do. No wonder so many people are broke and unhappy!Robert Allen's landmark manifesto "Nothing Down" demolishes that old tired and untrue statement. Nothing could be further from the truth. You see the way it goes is, it does take money...but it doesn't have to be your money.With Nothing down you will learn how to buy real estate with none of your own money. You will learn how to negotiate like a pro. You will learn how to work with realtors.Although written for the 90's (1991) the methods still work today. If the real estate bubble that so many people are calling for really happens, then this information will become all that much more valuable.Great book Robert. A classic and a best seller for over 24 years. And for a reason----IT WORKS.
The get rich in 10 to 15 year plan. Excellent book.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I must admit that this is not a get rich quick plan. This books shows a simplified, easy to read, excellent 10 to 15 year get rich plan, through long term real estate investing. The author never suggests that you will become rich overnight. The book starts with some basic ideas and continues to give many examples of nothing down purchases, negotiating hints, financing hints, creative financing hints and much more. The best part about this book is that you learn to invest with o.p.m. (other peoples money). I can honestly say that I have used many of Robert Allen's techniques over the past few years and believe me, they work! I must have read this book 20 or 30 times and each time I learn more techniques and motivate myself. I read many books about investing "Charles Givens, Gordon Pape, David Chilton, Discounted second mortgages etc etc etc etc. When Robert Allen talks about nothing down real estate investing he means nothing down. My purchases were made with 100% financing and I even borrowed enough to cover the closing costs. This is by far the best. A must read for any real estate investor.
