I love your book it covers a lot of information in this one book. This book is to the point and don't feed you a lot of hype. It has forms you can use right away, and this book of foreclosures explains to you a 14th step plan to get started righ away. This book sits at the top of my desk, which i am using on a daily basis to successfuly start my Pre-foreclosure investing.

I went into the right livelihood of the real estate industry by becoming a real estate agent, then a Realtor. I've been employed as an agent for over 4 months and quickly began thinking what does the broker do for 3% of a commission and then, why only take 3% of a deal if you can form your own investment company and keep all of the profit. My mother and I formed our own real estate investment company, LLC. She was the investor and I managed the company. Before this formation I ordered the following books and have read them all dealing with the subject of foreclosures and flipping as follows: The Complete Guide to Flipping Propertys" Wily, Keys to Buying Foreclosed and Bargain Homes by Barron's, How to Finance any Real Estate by Misko, Real Estate Flipping by Weiss, How to Pick Up Foreclosures, by Cook, and The ABC's of Real Estate Investing, What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow, The Essential Dictionary of Real Estate, Holton, Real Estate Riches, How to Become Rich Using Your Bankers
Money, by Dolf Roos, and Making Big Money Investing in Foreclosures Without Cash or Credit.....then there is The Pre-Foreclosure Property Investor's Kit by Thomas Lucier. This book if there is only one guide to read for successful investing is the one. It is methodical, stragetic, and written in an easy to utilize of manner. The author also has a direct website, direct e mail address to answer any real estate questions, and gives out his telephone number for support. I testify to this because I called his telephone number and he answered the phone and my questions directly and his response had a significant positive impact on our company thanks to Thomas. Written by Michelle Vernier, a satisfied client.
Absolutely essential reading January 3, 2005

This easy-to-read, flowing, simple-to-understand manual is absolutely essential reading for the serious and the initially curious-soon-to-be-serious individual who is looking to make a living or dabble in part-time by investing in real estate pre-foreclosures anywhere within the United States. Mr. Lucier is obviously very knowledgable and passionate in what he does, and it shows through his writing. Being in real estate myself, after all the books I have read relating to this topic, there has been no one book that surpassed this one in usefulness and ease of understanding, for both the professional as well as the novice.
Much thanks to Mr. Lucier to finally providing the rest of us with a basic handbook to do what we wanted to do and what we knew we could do, but no one else either knew or bothered to share with us. Lastly, his personal website tied in with this book, free access to foreclosure related forms, letters and checklists, and accessibility to answer your questions personally by e-mail and telephone is bar none.
Tom Lucier Answered my question within 24 hours January 3, 2005
Wow! I just purchased Tom's book and was very impressed with the step by step instructions. I even had a question about selling pre-foreclosures and recieved a reply back within 24 hours. His response back to me probably saved me thousands of dollars. Great tool for the new investor and straight talk for the seasoned investor. Thanks Tom

I want to say that Mr. Lucier gives it to you straight, no run arounds and false hopes and definitely insightfull, knowledgeble and worth more then the average price the book sells for. The info on the links alone are worth I believe about a few grand. I bought his book to learn something new and I did, not to mention the man gets to the point and tells it like it is. I would like to also state that I'am a seasoned investor and I have been doing pre-foreclosures and foreclosures for years now. Take it from me, this book is a must have for novices and experts alike. The book is practically a steal at that price. I give this book 6 stars but oh well 5 is the max.
thanks lucier for such a book, we need more people like you writing informative and no nonsense books.
