About the Reviews
My husband and I are just starting out in our real estate investment business and this book really breaks everything down for you, especially when it comes to calculating your ROI before making a purchase/deal and learning about the pros & CONS of each type of rental property. I love that he’s so honest and doesn’t just tell you that there’s one right way to do real estate. Instead he lays out the different options plain and simple and encourages you to do the work to decide what’s best for your lifestyle and skills. This book is not for the lazy, but rather those who are willing to learn and do the work for your future and posterity. This is a great read and I definitely recommend it for anyone just starting out in rental property investment.
*********************************
This is the real estate book you are looking for. It isn't some get quick rich scam. It isn't some "I will reveal the secret on the NEXT page" book (i.e. Rich Dad/Poor Dad). It isn't a self-help book. It is a HOW TO book. I ordered this on Kindle but realized I am going to be using this as a manual and I ordered the physical book too. I also ordered his other two books (Managing Rental Properties and the No Money Down Book-I haven't read those yet however). He does refer to the BiggerPockets community that he is apart of but I think they are on to something. This book isn't an attempt to get you onto BiggerPockets but after reading it, I'm probably going to join. I have read a lot of useless investment books. This book walks you through the numbers which, I think in the end, is the only thing that really matters. I highly recommend it.
*********************************
Great book. It really gives you a good overview of what you need to know at every stage of the process buying and leasing rental properties. It also gives a good overview of the different strategies different investors use. What's nice about it is that he really leaves it up to the reader to decide how to best get into the rental property industry. This makes it a very good first book and it forces the reader to really consider how they want to invest and why they want to invest. I have read books by other authors where they only tell you about the strategy that they used and they make it sound like anyone who uses a different strategy in a moron. In reality, many people have found success using many different methods. As the author often writes "There is no one right answer, but there may be a right answer for you." Also, Brandon Turners gets very excited about real estate and that excitement is contagious. Five stars
