HERE'S WHAT READERS OF MAKING BIG MONEY INVESTING IN FORECLOSURES WITHOUT CASH OR CREDIT :

Michael King I knew that there was more to life than a job and I could achieve it if I was willing to make the effort. The greatest satisfaction for me comes from taking a house that is trashed and turning it into a desirable home. Read Peter's Making Big Money in Foreclosures and study your area and market. Then find ways to hang out with other winners like those you'd finding the Mentor Family.

Teri Darnell Although I've always had a good job and made decent money, living is expensive, and it's very easy to refinance and continue to borrow until one day you realize you're in way over your head. I was in foreclosure myself in the early '90s, so I understand the mental state people are in when it's happening. When money is short, it's so easy to leave your bills unopened and stick your head in the sand. It's a state of denial. I'm able to tell people my story and show them I'm a living example of life after foreclosure. I've been there, done that, and have bought real estate many times since, so it's not the end, but a new beginning.

JJ Bergstrom I thought this was a business for scoundrels, but that isn't the case. The "used-car-salesman" types are not going to make it because they only care about the deal. Care about the people; be honest and ethical in everything you do.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Scripts for Tongue Tied Investors, June 28, 2007

After attempting to do pre-foreclosures on my own and becoming tongue tied when talking to the seller, I find that the scripts in this 2nd edition helped me to move forward with talking with the seller and the banker (e.g. the loss mitigator).

This 2nd edition not only explains the foreclosure process, but it explains how to talk to and what to say to people that you converse with through out the process. That's a thumbs up for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Best, July 6, 2007

This review is from: Making Big Money Investing In Foreclosures Without Cash or Credit, 2nd Ed. (Paperback)

Having read the 1st edition started me on the path of foreclosure investing. The 1st edition was an excellent source for the steps that are necessary to be a successful foreclosure invester. The materal was layed out in a manner that could be understood by any one. The 2nd edition only enhances the 1st edition. I recommend either book to read, even if a person does not want to be an invester. But be fore warned, if you do read either book {recommend both books, 1st edition, then the 2nd edition}you will change your mind and become an invester.

Peter Conti's new book is fantastic. It is packed with inside information from Pete and his team who have perfected every area of foreclosure investing. This book shows you how to take your investing business to the next level so that you can become more successful with less time fixing toilets and chasing down tenants. This book shows you 12 ways to structure deals with little or no money down. How to use "Subject To" Financing. It explains the Instant Offer System so that you can get more sellers to say "YES" to your creative solutions. Peter Conti also takes you step by step how to use a short sale to create some income from properties that other investors may have decided to pass on. Finally, this book shows you how to put your investing business on automatic pilot so that you can concentrate on the bigger picture and focus on larger deals. I cannot wait to implement the ideas I have learned in this book to take my investing business to the stratusphere.
