The perfect book for new Real Estate Investors

This book teaches you the fundamentals of long term Real Estate investing. This is not a get rich quick kind of book. This book helped me develop my Real Estate investment strategy. I learned how to evaluate property to ensure it meets my investment objectives, to ensure I do not overpay for property and how to evaluate my property on an ongoing basis to ensure it continues to meet my investment objectives. Before I was finished with the book people thought I was a professional investor because of my knowledge of Real Estate investing.

Straight forward great Advise

What I really like about this book was that it is not a get rich quick scheme. It is solid, knowledgeable investing information to build wealth. Each chapter builds on the previous. There are many good examples in plain English. The book is well written and basically lays out how to really make money and understand real estate investing. A smart book for budding investors.

A Real World Approach to Real Estate Investment.

Real estate has proven in the past to be a very good investment for a very large number of people. Much of that has come from sheer luck as they bought a house kept it for many years and then solf it for a very good profit. This book talks about how to treat real estate like any other investment. That is, the market goes up, and the market goes down. This is not one of those buy distressed property, perhaps cheating the little old lady that owns the house, fixing it up and selling it. Instead it's a pretty good study of every aspect of the real estate business. All in all, I'd only add one thing, go get your real estate license and become a real estate salesman for a local agency. You'll learn about people, you'll learn about real estate in your area, and you'll see her principles in action.
