Just finished reading Successful Real Estate Investing and really liked this book. I have read numerous books on Real Estate and this is one of the better books I have read. Very informative and up to date. He really debunks the tv Guru's and gives you the nitty truth about what it takes to get into the market. He is also very conservative in his approach and tries to give all angles to buying property. Give this book a four out of five stars.

The book is great. No pie in the sky stuff but real practical instructions that you would need to get started and realistically have things work. Full of ideas with the advantages and disadvantages so you know the up and downside of a strategy. Best money I ever spent.

I have been reading many real estate books recently and this one is the one that stands out the most. This book is a very good start for beginners who are looking to get into RE investing, either as a full-time job or something to do on the side. This book takes you through most of the detail needed to accomplish these and other tasks: writting an offer letter, tenant management, rent control understanding, etc.
The book also covers area of mortgage negotiations, tips on how to be able to show profits without paying taxes immediately and other tips of the trade.
I recommend this book over many others who preach their seminars and other non-RE related topics.

The book arrived in a timely manner and in good condition. I went through this book and pulled the high points from it, of which there was a lot. We decided not to go into investing but I found the book to be a useful and plentiful source of information on the subject.
