From the Inside Flap

FINALLY-A PROVEN INVESTMENT SYSTEM FOR REAL ESTATE INVESTORS

Many Canadians think about real estate as a profitable investment. Extra cash every month. Equity growth that can fund their retirement. And maybe it's not that hard to get started...

But many Canadians begin to make excuses about taking their first step into real estate investment. "The good properties have been snapped up already." "Prices are too high and I'll wait for the bubble to burst." "My brother-in-law says it's too risky and I'll lose my shirt."

Well, here's some great news for you: Amazing opportunities exist in the Canadian real estate market for investors who understand how big-picture economic fundamentals can be combined with sound analysis of investment properties to create exceptional wealth. The key to your success lies in learning the powerful strategies and techniques-used by thousands of successful and motivated investors-that you'll find in Real Estate Investing in Canada, a #1 national bestseller.

You'll discover the breakthrough Authentic Canadian Real Estate (ACRE) system, a step-by-step program designed to unlock the secrets behind profitable real estate investing. Developed by Canadians for Canadians, savvy investors have used the ACRE approach to purchase billions of dollars worth of residential properties. You will see how the ACRE system cuts through real estate market hype to deliver honest answers to critical investment questions. Here are just a few of the highlights of the ACRE system:

  • How to spot markets that are over-priced and under-priced
  • How to know if a town will boom or bust-before it happens
  • How to accurately analyze any property-even if you're a novice investor
  • Decide, within 30 seconds, whether a property has profit potential-or not
  • The 18 secrets to street-smart negotiations and how to use them to get the deal you want
  • The 7 proven strategies that will get the bank to say "yes" to your deals
  • How to get you offer accepted, even in a competitive market
  • The Cash Flow Zone Formula-the perfect tool to determine if a property will provide positive cash flow
  • The single most important step for an overachieving real estate investor (it's not what you think!)

The fundamentals of real estate markets evolve and the investor must understand the signals of communities that are set to grow and flourish, and those that are poised to decline. This is key knowledge to getting into-and out of-markets at the right time.

If you're serious about being an informed investor, read Real Estate Investing in Canada, learn the ACRE system, and step into the world real estate investing. Additionally, read about investors in action in Don R. Campbell's book 51 Success Stories from Canadian Real Estate Investors and pick up more tips from the experts in 97 Tips for Canadian Real Estate Investors.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware!!!!!!, Mar 3 2006
By A Customer
Be aware that this book is written buy the leader The Real Estate Investment Network (REIN), the real estate equivalent of Amway. Although a small amount of unique information is included in the book and on the Website, you must pay more money to get the "good" stuff. But Buyer Beware! Their motto is no hype and baloney but, in fact, that is what most of the Website is, hype about the product. It is the circle that feeds itself. The website insists you to go to the seminars, join the club, etc .... And then the seminar speakers encourage you buy the product, join the club in order to access the Website, which then tells you to go to more seminars... and so it goes. A big web of self promotion, with the leaders at the top getting extremely rich off of all the "would be" real estate investors.

I myself am a veteran RE Investor and have attended some of the REIN events. Although real estate investing is not difficult, it is not easy and not for everyone (as the author would have you beleive). It takes more then a dream of Belize and a desire to be rich. You need to have a passion for the business. It needs to excite you, be something that you want to do for many years. No one loves talking about real estate more then real estate investors. If you make a small effort to get to know a few you will learn all this information and more for free.

I am suspicious of some of the other reviwers as this auther has a very dedicated "flock" who I am sure have posted reviews here. It would make sense that they would give the book a good review even if it was awfull as this will encourage more people to come to the seminars and buy the products that are sold by the elite members.

3.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating At Times and Incomplete, Feb 16 2006
By A Customer
There is useful information between the covers of this book; unfortunately, most is buried within the context of conversations with the author, his friends and his "student". I did not like this style of writing at all and found it frustrating, at best; almost like reading a poorly written novel with truly inane dialog about skipping stones across a lake and farming, two give just two examples. If you can get by this (and it is clear most previous reviewers have), the information available is useful, but still incomplete.

For instance, the treatment of holding three investment properties when approaching lenders was informative. But since CMHC requires such large down payments on investment property, I would have liked to have read how we are expected to raise this capital. I would also like to have seen more on the fees and processes used by CMHC when investing in second or third properties.

Since there are also many differences between American tax law and real estate law and because we are inundated with so much of this American information, it would have been nice to see at least a chapter on these differences and how what we think may work in Canada won't, because of these differences.

Finally, buyers of this book gain access to the author's website. You should realize, however, that while there is some useful information there, its main purpose would seem geared to selling you a fairly expensive investing program. (I suspect this is how the author can finance his investments!)

This book is a good start, but the serious investor will need to consult other sources to gain a clearer picture of investing in Canadian real estate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Canadian Real Estate, May 4 2005
By 
Valden Palm (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
Finally, a CANADIAN real estate investing book that teaches about investing and is both informative and entertaining. The tools and templates within this book are worth the price of the book by themselves. It is obvious that by following this proven SYSTEM, for that is the key, ordinary Canadians can and are making money investing in real estate. No magic pill, no silver bullet, just sound practical strategies to seek out, evaluate, sort through, and buy winner properties every time. It also has the added dimension of learning investing in winning "small towns" too. Very Nice!
