I am new to real estate investing and felt this book was a thorough introduction to investing intelligently. This book provides easy to understand, realistic scenarios to understand how concepts can be applied

One can only begin to imagine the possibilities within the real estate industry especially once you understand how to play the game! Brandon really offers a TRUE guide to creative investing strategies that make sense in today's economic climate! Especially since I'm in the Southern California market where 3bd/ 2ba 1500-2000sq ft homes average in the $600k-$1m!!!!, I'm happy I found out about Bigger Pockets 😅😅😅I found chapter 9 to be my favorite because I plan on enter real estate using the wholesale strategy! I've purchase plenty of other books and education on the subject but never once did I "feel" confident in the information that I received from those resources until I stumbled onto this bookIf you are looking for a crash coarse, step by step, no filler, engaging read then buy this book along with, "The book on estimated rehab cost & The Flipping Book" {Both books are written by J.Scott and compliment this book}No matter what your background there are ample of strategies one can utilize today! After reading this book and knowing that I have two other books to study, I can no longer make the excuse of not knowing what to do! I will update this post after I receive,y first assignment check or close my first deal, BE ON THE LOOKOUT

Would-be real estate investors will learn a wealth of information in this well-written book. Several tools are laid out for you, and while some are a bit technical, the author uses plain English examples to make otherwise confusing tips and processes come to life.Unfortunately, all great real estate deals rely on the initial seller getting a poor price for their property. Spin it any way you wish ("Clarence sold his home to a wholesaler and escaped the double mortgage payments that were drowning him!" He did, but got 60% of his home's value.), you cannot make money in real estate without somebody else losing money. Sure, there's the house flipping strategy where you buy cheap and restore the property, but even that's a situation where the seller loses because they can't afford the repairs themselves.To the author's credit, he recommends strictly ethical practices, finding "great deals" notwithstanding. There are certainly a number of dirty tricks that allow a savvy person to take advantage of those with meager means or poor credit. The author warns sternly against these, and gives some genuinely useful advice for creatively investing without fleecing those who are down on their luck.It is worth mentioning that the author seems genuinely motivated to teach, rather than trying to make his fortune by selling you and endless string of books to teach you how to make yours. Most of the additional resources mentioned are free, and other books mentioned are usually written by other authors.As with any investment, there are numerous hazards and pitfalls; perhaps more here due to the "no or low money down" approach. But, the author does identify these, and gives appropriate words of warning. Anybody can creatively invest in real estate, but it is clear that not everybody should.

Great Book, I enjoy Brandon’s personality. I can say that clearly theses concepts won’t be easy but he explains that from the first page. It’s about the actions that you take and applying these concepts that are key. I’ll be reading more of his books.

Complex topics made easy. Definitely an eye opener for someone who is new to real estate investment. Recommend it. Good read

am a beginner on the real estate career recently doing a course for sales person . i also was interesting on learning how to invest while in the career . i hate reading but this book really have me so interest it on. because of the information that provides

The information here is extremely valueable. Every single chapter is very well explained. The real life examples also make it so much easier to understand the benefits and risks associated with a certain strategy, and how it can be executed. Must read for real estate. It really opens your mind to the possibilities with creative investing!

It’s a very insightful book with tons of ideas and good information on finding funding for your real estate projects, but there’s a major issue: the entire book only focuses on the UNITED STATES MARKET. Which is unfortunate because it doesn’t seem to say anywhere that it only focuses on U.S markets, all the loan options and rules/regulations are based on this. I’m from the UAE so sadly this was upsetting for me once I got into the book, but nevertheless the information provided is still very insightful and helpful.

Great book and put me in the right direction to start my real estate career. I currently have minimal savings and already have a few ideas on how to get started with buying my first income property!

A great book for finding out what creativity with real estate is. Fully neccessary for someone who is a starter in this business, but it demands some base, since you need some other book to cover dealing, finding perfect deals and so on. But this book really makes you enthusiastic for this business.

Best book on the entire planet.Complete practical knowledge.And the perfect strategy provided.Best AuthorBook feels the best.

Très bien détaillé et facile à lire. Vous découvrirez à travers ce livre les principales techniques et manières d’investir avec peu ou pas de votre propre argent dans l’immobilier, et ce de manière très créative. Ce livre reste néanmoins principalement destiné au marché américain. Je vous le recommande.
