What I Liked

I seriously wish I’d had this book when I became and accidental landlord for a few years. Actually – I wish I’d had this book when I was 18 and full of ambition with no direction, an attraction for sweat equity, a bit of savings, and not a whole lot else to do.

Either way – this book really is the absolute best book on real estate investing that I’ve read (and I’ve read a few). It’s systematic; ok with not going (too) overboard with real estate hype; and is clear-eyed with the challenges of real estate.

In fact, as someone who is no longer in real estate, it was a solid, excellent reminder of why I do not want to invest in real estate now (or ever?). That balance is a huge recommendation for this specific book.

What I Did Not Like

Not a whole lot! I mean, I’m not going to get into real estate again, but that’s exactly why this book is a good choice for someone thinking about it. It’s full of nuance, challenges, and specific ways of thinking.
