Cap rates, net operating income, cash on cash, absorption, rental surveys, internal rate of return, job trends & demographics, etc. -- all important measures. However, in this book Mark simplifies WHERE YOU SHOULD START and enables you to quickly determine the "temperature" of the market before wasting unnecessary time on the other formulas.

Marketopoly and Mark MacKenzie really breakdown the most basic fundamentals of smart, long term real estate investing. A super easy read for any level of investor, yet with the most important keys to finding the right buys and markets.

No fluff and filler. Packed full of how to know that you are investing correctly in real estate. This book will show you the real nuts and bolts of what to look at, A to Z, in real estate investing.

Mark has really put everything in one small book, I am going to give one of these books to each of my clients and have them sign and date it and keep a photo copy of the cover for each of my closed transactions. This not only informs my client of Investing, market strategy and market timing but also keeps me safe if ever we go to court.

Thanks Mark!

"Marketopoly" shares what should be a fundamental of real estate investing: All real estate markets are local. Even though the overall, so-called national market may be in a downturn, that does not mean that the ALL of the markets are bad places to invest. Mark shows a formula to determine which way individual local markets are trending. That way investors know where to put their money. I truly enjoyed this book and the no-nonsense perspective.

Marketopoly is a great book for those looking to gain knowledge about investing in real estate for the long term. No short term flipping or speculating here. Easy read and very informative with ideas and tips on how to build wealth in real estate around the country! Thanks Mark!

MacKenzie explains concepts like inventory tracking, CAP rates, and ROI in a way that makes them accessible and memorable. I will be recommending this book to my investor clients.

Marketopoly is an excellent primer to real estate investing. Consider it an antidote to the ubiquitous information out there in the form of books and seminars on real estate speculation, dependant on unrealistic appreciation. Mr. Mackenzie has provided in an easy to read and understand form, the basic metrics for analyzing a piece of investment real estate. For this he should be applauded. Will this turn the masses into successful real estate investors? No, but it will give the reader a leg up on the competition. Read this if you are considering becoming a real estate investor instead of a real estate speculator.
