Book description
A fully revised, new edition of one of the bestselling real estate
investing guides of all time
Through its five previous editions, Investing in Real Estate
has shown investors how to intelligently build wealth with their
investments in houses, condominiums, and small apartment buildings.
Unlike many titles in this genre, Investing in Real Estate
steers clear of the hyped-up “no cash, no credit, no problem” promises.
Instead, it provides sound, real-world advice and instruction that
reflects the author's time-tested wisdom and experience. This book shows
you how to invest profitably, safely, and reliably as you navigate the
risks and opportunities of today's property market. It covers all the
topics investors need to master, including how to find, negotiate,
finance, lease out, and manage your property acquisitions. Plus, you
will discover how to add tens of thousands of dollars of value to nearly
any property. Whether you plan to start investing or move your current
investing strategy to a higher level, two decades of sales success
testifies to the fact that this investing guide stands superior to any
others that you will find.
This new edition covers all the recent changes in the market, including
the latest housing rescue legislation from Congress, a historical review
of how to profit from property cycles, and insightful new ways to gain
from the current excess inventories of for-sale properties,
foreclosures, and REOs.
