A must read. One of the best for true RE investors
I have been investing in RE for over 20 years and I have read a lot of books. This one is the best so far and I would say it is a must read.
This book is not a Carlton Sheets (et al) get rich quick balogna book. This is a book for serious RE investors.
If you want to flip properties, this book is not for you. If you want to buy and hold properties, this is by far the best book I have ever read.
The most value of this book is how to properly assess value of a property. Assessing the value of a property is probably the most difficult thing. Not only does he teach you how to do this, he teaches you how to see through the sellers inflated balance sheets and possible misleading Realtor statements.
Also of tremendous value is how to properly manage properties for maximum cashflow. I had no idea I had so much to learn in this area.
What more can I say? Just get the book. I got the audio book and I listened to it at least 4 times.
