Summary: excellent strategy
Comment: As a person contemplating real estate investing, this book offers an excellent opportunity to invest wisely and help others in the community. The book is clear, concise, and easy to follow. "Buy low, Rent smart, Sell high" allows families to have a piece of the American Dream. This plan provides a unique opportunity for the investor to not only make a profit, but to feel good about what they're doing. I highly recommend this book to anyone thinking about real estate investing.

Summary: Practical tips to succeed with real estate
Comment: I found the book simple to read and simple to follow. There are enough "sample" documents to allow for a quick start. For me, the real life examples throughout showed exactly how each suggestion can play out ... and that gives me more confidence that the strategy works. I think these guys are onto something, beyond the "no money down" b.s. After reading the book, I feel like I really know them and am anxious to try it out. This actually may be the way to make some real money.

Summary: Decent, but has the typical flaw...
Comment: in books of this type. These guys supposedly based their business around REO properties. Usually buying from the bank after the foreclosure process for 25% less than market value. They must live in an area with absolutely NO competition. Where I live everybody and their dog is after these types of properties, thus it is impossible to buy these houses for this type of discount. If you can get one it will be a DOG and you had better be ready to pour some money in it to get it sellable.
Another beef is with their numbers. They assume at one point purchasing a house with a mortgage for $67500 say that your PITI(principal, interest, taxes and insurance) will be $500. They then say you can rent this type of house for $1000. Not in my neck of the woods. Be sure to check your local numbers for insurance and taxes and rental rates.
That said, I do like their Rent-to-Own sales plan and the premise that someone renting-to own will take better care of the property than a transient renter would. I also like their breakdown of the six profits centers they look for in each property.
If you are looking for a way to get started in real estate I recommend their plan once you have purchased the property, I just wouldnt limit yourself to just trying to fight for REO houses. There are many opportunities for buying houses for less than market price, just do your homework and don't limit yourself.
