The Unofficial
Guide to Real Estate Investing:
Why buy another book?
Pick up the keys to successful real estate investing here!
The authors of The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing claim to offer you “the inside scoop... for when you want more than the official line!” That’s what I was looking for, too, when I started my journey of real estate investment.
What I found was a lot of books like The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing, and I found they fell short of the mark for not teaching beginners, in a very practical way, WHAT to buy, WHERE to look and HOW to actually DO IT. That The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing is a very popular reference guide doesn’t surprise me, though.
Indeed, books like The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing serve a real purpose and it’s my belief that anyone can learn how to be successful with real estate investing. The real requirement is to be prepared to dedicate time and effort to learning and doing the reading and “homework” that’s necessary with any program that offers you a true chance at success.
What The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing offers, in my unofficial opinion, is some straight talk about what it takes to invest in real estate. The authors are also good at explaining concepts for beginners, and they walk you through the process step by step. Where they fall short - again, in my unofficial opinion - is in the details on what buying options are best, where you should look for properties, and what are the due diligence steps you should take. Finally, the book is also a little dated, and while a lot of concepts are timeless, today’s market presents fresh challenges and opportunities. And that’s what inspired me to create HowManyDoors, so you can get started as a real estate investor right now, right here.
As an online-only resource for learning my version of The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing, I can also offer you:
- up to the minute insights on real estate market trends, along with
- proven know-how, based on my own experience and professional contacts, plus
- proprietary inventory of turnkey properties that will help newbies successfully
invest for the first time.
Better yet, rather than a dry, academic treatise on real estate investing, in my version of The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing, I’ve created engaging graphics that you can download and use to guide you on your path to your first, or your next, real estate investment. Plus, I’ve also created useful tools, like this free ROI calculator. You should also check out my Top 10 Tips Lists, like Top 10 “Gotchas” for Buy and Hold Properties. These resources are just the tip of the iceberg. HowManyDoors will keep you focused on taking the right steps and making the right decisions to achieve your goals. So I ask again, why buy another book? Let HowManyDoors be your Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing.
