The original edition of this book helped me become a very successful real estate investor. It went out of print, just found its out again, have purchased 33 of these books and given to nephews/nieces, children, friends, clients, all young people starting out. Just ordered another 24. Best book for learning this way to invest, best perspective and most practical. Someone gave me this book when I was 23, would never have picked it up because of the hokie title, but it was a life changing book for me.

The book is dated and was not eager to continue reading as the examples of purchasing homes and remodeling cost were very dated. But there are some other good information that can be applied currently. I wish it was post-COVID

Nickerson is the original Real Estate guru!He really walked his talk and bought and sold many properties during his investment career. A few interesting points set him apart from many of the modern day gurus. For example, his approach included employing brokers and agents to buy and sell and he is not teaching you to get rich quick - he shows how frugality and a restrained spending lifestyle can actually help you reach your financial goals. His plan is simple and especially now, with real estate prices falling back to the point where positive cash flows can happen, is still relevant literature to gain insight about building wealth with real estate.

Great book for anyone looking to invest or flip houses. It has very helpful with the ins and outs of lenders and the real estate end of things.

its good, its out of date i think. so it is a little off. but im sure it can be adapted. plus amazon pushes reviews like no other, especially when i haven't read the whole thing.

I just got this book a few days ago. And I've already blazed through it. It gives the beginning real estate investor a framework to which to build on. It has ACTUAL instructions on how to go about beginning in real estate investing. The numbers, of course, are outdated, but the principals are still the same. I recommend this for anybody looking to break into real estate investing.

Everything in the book is dated. All the statistics and examples are from 2-3 generations ago, so it’s difficult to find real world applications in this book.

Just a photocopy, poor quality, faker than fake.

A great book to learn about Real Estate investing with many minute details coveredthe only con is it is a bit outdated but always Old is Gold

Interesting read. A bit outdated.

its a decent book
