Anticipation Vindicated, Dec 18 2006
By Marvin Chase - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trump: The Best Real Estate Advice I Ever Received: 100 Top Experts Share Their Strategies (Hardcover)
As a former real estate executive, I approached this book with both caution and anticipation. Caution, because I feared it would be a long vanity ride (as so many of Trump's books are), and anticipation because it contains the thoughts of quite a few accomplished masters in the field. It turns out that my caution was misplaced, and that my anticipation was rewarded in multiples. This is a fine book, and principally so because of the surpassing strength of seven or eight of the individually authored essays in it. Worth the price of admission are the pieces by Jonathan Tisch, Leonard Lauder, Larry Silverstein, and Stephen Leopold. The last of this quartet of industry giants, Stephen Leopold, is Chairman of William B. May International in New York, and his essay is particularly compelling. Along with the others in my "quartet" he teaches, illustrates, and provides profound insight into the workings of the commercial real estate industry. The pick of the crop here is Leopold's highly educational and entertaining essay, and the book overall I can highly recommend - definitely a cut above all other Trump books.Marvin Chase

A good read. Not heavy-duty stuff, but a good read., Jun 30 2007
By T F - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trump: The Best Real Estate Advice I Ever Received: 100 Top Experts Share Their Strategies (Hardcover)
The reader should keep in mind one thing: this book is more inspirational than instructional. 100 real estate experts tell what worked for them, and in doing so, they give an overview of their investing philosopies and the strategies they used to be succesful.I always find it interesting to see what has worked for these succesful people. I've long believed that one of the best ways to become succesful is to imitate what other succesful people have done to get there.
If you're looking for detailed strategies, you're better off buying a more instuctional book or course that walks you through the process of buying, selling,and building up your real estate portfolio. I recommend stuff by David Lindahl, Robert Shemin, & Russ Whitney. This is not that kind of book. But if you're interested in "picking the brains" of succesful real estate people, & seeing what you can glean from them to apply to your own real estate investing, this is a book I'd highly recommend.

Interesting, Aug 17 2007
By Xander Zone - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Trump: The Best Real Estate Advice I Ever Received: 100 Top Experts Share Their Strategies (Hardcover)
If you are looking for a how to book this is not it. If you don't ask for or take advice, this book is also not for you. But it does give some perspective of what people in the business think are important to their success. It is also a lot easier to read than finding the 100 people yourself and getting the advice directly from them. While there is some repetition, some contributors took more time and actually did write some more detailed tips. There is a good section on how to do better 1031 exchanges for example, which usually gets a mere mention in many books.
