4 out of 5 stars I don't know what I don't know yet.   August 12, 2007
Although I have my Florida Real Estate License (which needs to be updated), I've never bought or sold investment properties or any other type of Real Estate. My original plan was to sale Time Share, but 911 TKO'd my plans. Since I've never bought an investment property, I confess that I don't know what I don't know, so read this review with caution. While a lot of reviews warned against it, I bought this book and read it anyway and I thought it was a pretty good read. Granted it's the first book I've ever read concerning the subject of foreclosures. With that said, I thought the information related to the choosing, vetting and paying of contractors was informative and the sections on financing were enlightening. I'm not saying this book is the bible of foreclosures, but I think it's a good place to start your research. I gave it four stars because it's a fast and easy, to the point read, that's chalked full of information.

Was very basic and general, but a good overall summary of the process. If your looking for more info than that I would suggest finding a more extensive book. Ended up w/ idiot's guide and now have much more of the info I needed.

5 out of 5 stars Good financing chapter   February 5, 2007
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book has excellent chapters on how to finance your investments in foreclosures or bank-owned properties. Other information is relatively okay, but the finance information is important and gives people the hope that you don't really need to have the capital immediately to purchase something at a discount.

With the current real estate cycle, foreclosures are truly increasing tenfold and if you are just starting out in real estate, this is one of those opportunities that you simply cannot ignore. Invest now to make your move, an investment in this book and other foreclosure books can not only help you be smarter, but may make you richer.

This book was a decent read. I found other books to be better, but I was not unhappy that I bought it.
