Will be A Reference Book

I am a new investor. The book has helped me become more knowlegeable in REI. It will remain in my reference library. I've listened to the book twice and often refer back to specific chapters.

Awesome Real Estate Book!!!

Great reference on buy and hold at a much moderate, less aggressive pace. plenty of "nuggets" taken away from this audio!!

Out of date & relies on misleading information

I unfortunately was taken in by the excellent job the narrator does on presentation. I should have checked more carefully before I wasted one credit on this book. I did not realize the author was a "buy with nothing down" advocate. Anyone who still thinks they can really buy real estate for nothing down is either a dreamer or a scam artist. More sadly still, the author assumes an average 5% value increase in real estate every year. Anyone with even minimal knowledge of the current decade's real estate market knows that a 5% per year increase in real estate value is Pie in the Sky thinking. Numerous studies show that the actual average real estate increase over the past 100 years or so is 2% or less. Avoid this author. His information is flawed, and his advice is sketchy.

Must read, packed full of great information

I have listened to many audiobooks on investing in Real Estate / single family homes and this one is perhaps the best one. It is more dense than say each Rich Dad Poor Dad series (collectively they offer a lot too). I want to thank the author for putting this book together and guiding all those that want to learn on the subject.

MUST read

This is the best, the most thorough, the most understandable, the most ethical, and the most inspiring book I have read on real estate investing yet. I heartily recommend it to anyone who is serious about getting into real estate investing.

Great value for anyone in real estate.

Unlike most of the books on real estate written and published by grandiose, copycat charlatans, this book has true practical value and is founded on solid real life experience. Even after being actively involved in US residential real estate since 2004 by flipping and renting properties (prior to that in European real estate as well) and having my managing broker real estate licences in Colorado, I learned a lot from Mr. John Schaub. Bravo - highly recommended material.

John is the best out there - STILL!!!

I just wish John read this!! Taken his class several times. Simple & timeless strategies!! Thank you John!

Worth the Read

As a beginner in the investment industry, this book is such a great read. There is a lot of useful information in there; it’s going to be my reference book. I can’t wait to listen to it again! Thank you!

worth a second read!

I loved it! What are you waiting for? Read it already! LOL you won’t regret it!
