Gentle Introduction that is invaluable April 19, 2007 Investing in real estate and especially in apartment buildings can be a scary and overwhelming endeavor. Ken McElroy provides an excellent book that is both very easy to follow and a great introduction without inundating the reader with too many details. This book does not represent the sum of all knowledge for investing in real estate (it is only A through C), and should not be taken as such.
It was a great book to read and has piqued my curiosity and interest to learn more. Thanks Ken.
Educational & Practical Book March 21, 2007 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
I am new to real estate investing. I messed-up my 6th investment for failing to read this book. The concepts, techniques, & its practical application are very informative. I initially could not believe how simple the reasonings behind the investing (buying) process and how it really makes sense. The buying techniques simultaneously serves the seller & buyer's point of view. It definitely sharpen my concepts about investing.
The book does not offer the stages of "how to". Instead it offers multiple priceless concepts, the "principle of buying it right". This is the part that anyone needs to anchor their investment correctly, to momentarily get the desired rate return & eventually to sell it correctly. The methodology & principles introduced alone are already worth more than the price of the book.
Anybody can follow through this book regardless of the level of real estate investment skills. The math side is so simple (very little) that anybody can easily follow.
Whether you plan to invest in single homes or multi family, you need to read this book first. Believe me it is worth your money, attention, & time. I highly recommend this book.
Good overview but short on the details March 14, 2007 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book is strictly about investing in rental properties. The author provides an overview of the process, but not much detail. I'd like to know how the author got started in real estate investing. What processes did he go through? How did he make his way to owning/managing million $ properties? This book is fine for a quick read which highlights the real estate investing process, but will leave you hanging if you want to become a serious investor.
Great for an investor wanting to play with the big leags March 11, 2007 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love the way Ken McElroy lays the audio out in this book. Very, Very easy to understand and is a step by step process. So you can make a checklist and take one action at a time.
He mainly covers apartment complexes as his personal choice of investing. Fine by me, I am motivated now and know what to ask for when acquiring a building.
Shallow at Best March 9, 2007 16 out of 20 found this review helpful
This book was an easy read. Like the two other books that I just finished reading from the Rich Dad series, this one does not have much substance. This book does a great job of convincing the reader of how great real estate investing is. However, it is shallow and does not give enough advice on how to actually get started in real estate investing. Do not waste your time and money on this book!
