Getting Started in Real Estate Investing, 2nd Edition

Rating:
Summary: A good primer and resource
Review: As a begginner to real estate I found this book to be a great primer on the fundementals of real estate. It explains some of the factors one must consider in valuing real estate, such as confrmity. It explains the basics of loans and the pros and cons of using an accelerated system. It also explains the real estate investment cycle and how it evolves. This book is just a primer it promotes no particular investment philosophy but just the basics one must know in order to be real estate investor.

Summary: Getting Started in Real Estate Investing
Review: This book is great because it gives you a detailed look at real estate investing from an "investor's point of view". It discusses cycles, timing, knowing your numbers, etc. that all other books I have read have either completely left out or barely touched on. To be well-rounded on this subject, this book is an absolute must.
