5.0 out of 5 stars
Gigantic value,
By Dee Prproaker (Athens, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing (Paperback)
Usually, when I buy an "intro to the subject' book I seem to find a general guide of (almost) obvious dos and don'ts. Not this book. It covers the territory of real estate investing with dozens of specific pointers backed up with examples. Great detail on financing, buying at a bargain price, and increasing the value of a property. Easy-to-read writing style plus lots of whitespace, headings, and boxed major points for quick scanning. All in all a gigantic value for a mere $10 or $11 bucks. I think even pros (as well as first-timers) could profit by reading this info-packed "how to" guide.

Helpful guide for beginners,
By Janet Hoosier - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing (Paperback)
I'm a real estate agent, and I found this book easy enough for me to explain some basic concepts of real estate investing to some of my clients. This is basic, however, and that's fine for most people who has an agent. If you are serious about becoming a professional full-time investor, I would suggest you arm yourself with several books before plunking down cold hard cash on a property - books on selecting properties good for investing, finding other investors, how to buy properties, how to sell properties, flipping homes, real estate auctions, prepping homes for sale, home renovations that would help maximize the sale of a property, rental, etc. There are lots to know about real estate investment, and this book tries to cover the surface of it. Good reference for just beginning.

This review is from: The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing (Paperback)
Gary Eldred's book, The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing, provided for me a broad and comprehensible introduction to the world of the Real Estate business. From loans to Land lording, Mr. Eldred introduces techniques, formulas and a wealth of resources to help you find money, calculate risk and profit, maximize your investment and create wealth through an honorable, ethical and respectful business practice. I highly recommend this book to the beginners and the veterans alike.
