2.0 out of 5 stars I've got two words for you, Tyler..., August 10, 2005

By	B. Heintz (NY, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

ACTIONABLE SPECIFICS. This book was so laden with sales pitches for Hicks' newsletters and seminars, so padded with testimonials, and so vague as to courses of action as to be almost useless. Also missing: Information on property valuation, handling tenants and leases, using the Internet to find properties and financing, and more...

On the good side: It did give me a bit of introduction to the jargon of the real estate business, but most of all, it gave me a list of features to avoid in other books, starting with the name Tyler Hicks.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lots of General Ideas, Lots of Sales Pitches, January 29, 2006

By	FF (Raleigh/Durham, NC USA) - See all my reviews

This book is an OK introduction to the area real estate investment, but there are very little helpful specifics. There are, as other reviews have noted, a lot of sales pitches for Mr. Hicks' other packages and business ventures. Also, he is a huge proponent of getting in debt as much as possible and with poor terms and interest rates, which is a controversial way to go about things IMO.

There has to be better books out there. Glad I borrowed this from the library and didn't buy it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Would not recommend it..., March 15, 2006

By	J. Dillner - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

More than anything Ty Hicks uses this book to pimp his other real estate packages. Not much valuable information about how to make money, just recommends dropping money on his newsletters and kits. He also just gives examples of people making money, but provides hardly any insight on anything that can help the beginning real estate investor.
