Summary: Allen's Creative Financing Techniques....
Comment: Aside from the many wealth building tools in Creating Wealth, what I found particularly interesting were the creative financing techniques on buying real estate.
In Creating Wealth Robert G. Allen explains in clear simple language, how anyone can locate the best buys, negotiate, deal with real estate agents and manage properties.
Allen shows you how to solve your immediate cash-flow problems and build equity for the future. Best of all, he shows you how to do it with the least amount of your own money---even with no money down.
Allen became a self made millionaire by using his own "Nothing Down" approach, demolishes the notion that "it takes money to make money," and offers imaginative and practical income producing formulas. Further, Allen shows you how to do this without large down payments.
Followers of Allen's methods have been overwhelmingly successful in building up sizable equity in several properties simultaneously.
Many people have found that buying real estate with Nothing Down is not all that difficult. The real problem is generating cash flow and staying out of trouble once you take over the property.
Allen devotes an entire chapter called Leverage: I love debt to show you how to buy right and an additional chapter called How to overcome the major obstacles that leverage creates to help keep out of trouble.
In Creating Wealth, Allen offers 8 Nothing Down techniques, a property analysis form, a grid chart and scripts to call on prospective sellers (don't wanters)
The book provides specific techniques for:
* Successful Negotiation
* Tax-free retirement in 5 years
* Direct, legal tax cuts
* Financing
* Locating bargain properties
* Selling and trading for maximum gain
* Increasing property value
* Overcoming the biggest roadblocks to success
In chapter 12, Allen discloses the enormous profits in discounted mortgages, offers sample ads to run, strategies and fundamentals on how to structure the deals.
Creating Wealth was a great book when it came out and it is still a great book. Disregard reviewers who say this book is too old or outdated. The techniques still work. Ask anyone who has actually used the strategies. And don't listen to those paper tigers who write nonsense and have no real world investing or business experience.

Summary: Perhaps Allens best Real Estate Book.
Comment: I used the technique in "Creating Wealth" coupled with "Nothing Down" to buy my first home with NOTHING DOWN.
Further, my investing in real estate properties, I was able to earn enough money to pay off my home in under 5 years and replace my salary from my job of 20 years.
Some of the information in "Creating Wealth" is duplicated from "Nothing Down" but there is also much newer information as well.
For example, Allen shows you the traps to avoid in buying properties with Nothing Down that most other authors ignore. HE ALSO offers scripts to use when calling home owners.
While I don't expect to become a millionaire (wasn't my goals anyway) I have achieved financial independence in that I am debt free and live very well on the income generated from Mr. Allen's strategies.
I also recommend "Multiple Streams of Income" and "Multiple Streams of Internet Income."

Summary: A Thoughtful Book
Comment: Creating Wealth is a thoughtful book. It presents a lot of "How-to" techniques that teaches you how to create wealth in real estate, collectible coins, all the way to using corporations to your advantage. The Real Estate section is particular well done and i really like the charts and diagrams he used to demonstrate what to look for, how to look for it, what to buy, what not to buy. The author also provides a series of negotiation scripts to demonstrate how the whole process works. Compare with some of Robert Allen's later books, i think this one is more complete, more thought out and less on self bravados. I would suggest that you should read/study this book with an open mind and a critical eye. This book is about establishing a different thinking process, but you'll still need to have the technical know-hows to fully protect yourself from any Real Estate Pitfalls.
