Summary: Experience shines through
Comment: After tiring of the "get rich quick" books so common to this genre,my uncle (and long time investor) gave me a copy of this book. Instead of "pie in the sky" tools and techniques, refreshingly, the authors explain the pros and and cons of various popular strategies. This book also includes very real world discussions of appraisal, leases, high leverage, and market strategy that I guarantee you won't find in any other r.e. book (at least none that I've seen.) Sensible, clear, and relatively well-written (though I did find some typos that shouldn't have slipped by unnoticed), I would gladly have paid twice the price of this book for the knowledge shared by these two investors who obviously have "been there, done that."

Summary: Exceptional!!!
Comment: I am a real estate newbie. I have purchased a handful of books trying to make sure I learn on paper before jumping in. While some of the other books have good info, this one is easily the best one I've encountered. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to everyone that wants a comprehensive look at the real world of real estate. Amazingly, it is also very easy to read. Even the parts featuring math examples -- which I normally don't enjoy -- are easy to read and digest. Well done! And I can't believe the price ... what a bargain!

Summary: Intelligent and experienced
Comment: I was amazed by how much I learned from this book--even though I thought I already knew quite a bit. The insights on appraisal, leases, taxes, strategic management, financing, and creating value, etc. gave me a much different and I am sure- a more profitable way to think. In my market, profits no longer come easy, but this book has opened my eyes to opportunities that I have been overlooking. ONE MORE POINT: If you're tempted to believe the the malicious remarks below--first check out what these authors really say. Those negative reviews misquote the authors and clearly pervert their intent. USE AMAZON'S KEY TERM SEARCH function to read for yourself. Try these: financial discipline, Robert Allen, lease option, lease option sandwich, thoroughly clean, credit card, empathy, name the terms. You will find as I did that the substance of the critical remarks bear no accurate relationship to what this book actually says.
