 A Budget Book of Resourceful Information October 14, 2008
I have this book it is one of many in my arsenal of books. Peter Conti Covers a variety of different strategies. Definitely a resourceful book for newbies who like to devour information. Just do it Real Estate Investing is the way to go!

 Sketchy, generic, fluff July 27, 2008

This is a remarkably bad book. The advice takes the form of vague concepts - there's not one practical course of action laid out in this book in a usable form, but you'll get a lot of anecdotal ramblings about the author's big successes exploiting one-time opportunities in contrived scenarios. Legal considerations? Nope, look elsewhere.
 Good but Not Enough Info. April 27, 2008

There are many good ways to buy properties in this book but, some seem a little sketchy. They really push keeping the houses for your future, but do you really want to be a landlord, I don't and would rather sell and move on, who wants to deal with that. I have friends with properties and it is a constant pain in the b..., if you don't know how to fix small problems yourself you will be constantly hiring someone else to fix them and there goes all your profits. Peter never talks about taxes either rather painting a great picture of profit, yes he does talk about writing off the interest, but never about Capitol Gains tax that you will have to pay when you sell the house no matter how long you own it, you don't have to pay it if you live in the house for two years but if you rent you will. There is defiantly money to be made now and in the coming years and I will use some of the resources (They give you access to there wed site for free) and ideas in this book to make some money, but think long and hard were you buy (neighborhood etc.) and if there is really enough profit in the property after you pay your real estate people, Taxes and other expenses. Good luck!!!

Just finished reading Peter Conti's Making Big Money in Forclosures, 2nd Edition and I thought it was great! If you plan on investing in the forclosure market any time soon you should do yourself a favor and read this book so you will have the very latest information available. Thanks again Peter!
