Real Estate Investing Knowledge

Over the years, I have been asked by various people about where to find information about real estate investing. So, I thought that I'd make some recommendations on some books I have read through the years.

First, I think that you should explore the Rich Dad series of books, but more especially, Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Cashflow Quadrant, The ABC's of Real Estate Investing, and Retire Young Retire Rich. This entire series is extremely informative, but more importantly, they really get you to begin to shift your thought process from that of an employee. Even being a serial entrepreneur, they helped me continue my process of learning to live without wanting a paycheck. They also teach you how to creatively look at investments. You may find them at your bookstore, library, or online at www.richdad.com

Second is, "The Complete Guide to Real Estate Finance for Investment Properties by Steve Berges." This book really does a fantastic job of taking you through the process of buying investments properties from searching to evaluating to financing to closing as well as information about the various types of real estate investing that is available.

Last one I want to recommend right now is not really a real estate investment guide, but rather a personal improvement book. Now don't laugh at me, but I really have been motivated to do many of the things through the years and improved my life by using his Personal Power II tapes/cds. I bought the program probably 10 years ago, and have continued to pull out one or another of them for a particular topic every so often.

I hope that these give you a little guidance, and I look forward to any other comments and suggestions anyone else might have.

Thanks for visiting and HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
