the title is misleading.I have some experience in real estate and decided to buyprofessional book to learn something.Big mistake.The author never,yes,never gives you actual real life examples.His experience looks like limited to California.And US is much bigger.Not many web sites mentioned at all if any.Some facts that are most important to beginner are missing.These facts are local taxes and neighborhood.

Borrowed this from a friend and bought my own copy now. I liked the easy going intro and it is a beginner’s guide / summary of all the investing options for real estate.

This is a book I find myself returning to time and time again. The insights are multi-dimensional; and every reading is a fresh experience. Contains a lot of insiteful information for the beginner investor mostly; but also for the experienced investor. I recommend this book.

Robert Irwin has written a good book on how to get started in real estate. His beginning story with Leslie, David, and Leo really simplify the thought process of investing. It was a great idea to use one’s first residence as an investment property. This gives a fresh outlook on real estate investing. Now real estate could be purchased on 2 fronts. He gives good points to the beginner which seasoned investors may already know. Unfortunately he only scratches the surface of real estate without giving real world examples and numbers. All in all the tips and traps illustrations should serve as a good outline to all real estate investors.
He definitely followed the KISS (Keep it simple …) acronym and it is a refreshing read.
