Book Reviews of The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing
Book Review: I own the 2nd Edition 2008 version
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a brand new investor, investing in real estate in the Miami-Dade/ Broward County areas. I have read several articles on real estate and also have listened to CD's on wholesaling, foreclosures, and other such topics. This is the first actual book I have read on any real estate subject. I have found that this book has been very easy to follow and comprehend.
The author is really informative and not only discusses how he invests, but he gives voice to alternatives. I have been attending the local real estate investor's meetings, so with my limited knowledge, I can ascertain that the author is in fact a professional in this field and not just another person trying to become a millionaire by repeating techniques that (he) hasn't utilized, himself.
I recommend this book to all real estate investors that are just beginning in this field. This book does not go into step by step detail on how-to do certain deals, however, it gives an overall understanding, for the beginner to better make a decision on which area of real estate they would like to invest in. I, myself have now narrowed my interest parameters to other subjects that I was not interested in prior to reading. Overall I give this book, 5 stars. It sets a higher bar for any book that I read hereinafter.
