Product Description

Product Description

Real Estate Investing For Dummies, 2nd Edition, is completely revised and updated to help you overcome the challenges and and take advantage of the opportunities in any real estate environment, including a down market. But Eric Tyson and Robert Griswold′s core message remains as relevant today as it did upon the initial publication of Real Estate Investing For Dummies –– investing in real estate is time–tested vehicle to build wealth in the long term. Tyson and Griswold don′t tell you how to become a millionaire overnight. Instead, they offer proven, practical, and actionable advice so that if you chose to invest in income–producing properties, you can do so wisely and confidently.

From the Back Cover

Now updated — your guide to building long–term wealth through real estate

Want to be a successful real estate investor? Eric Tyson and Robert Griswold present their proven strategies, along with updated tips for easily riding out downturns in the real estate market. From homes and apartment buildings to duplexes, commercial properties, and real estate investment trusts (REITs), you′ll master every aspect of investing in and financing properties, and see how to increase their value.

  • Build a foundation for investing success — get your finances in order, weigh your investment options, understand the risks, and work with real estate pros

  • You have to pay to play — raise capital, finance your purchases, and secure the best mortgage terms

  • Find and evaluate properties — choose the best locations, understand leases, project a property′s cash flow, and decide how much to pay

  • Master the negotiation process — assemble attractive offers, complete the purchase agreement, conduct formal due diligence, and close the sale

  • Manage your property — be a top–notch landlord (or hire help), get the insurance you need, know the tax angles, and decide when and how to sell

"Both beginner and experienced real estate investors will profit from studying all the aspects to consider when maximizing property profits."
Bob Bruss, Inman News, on Real Estate Investing For Dummies

"This is simply the best book on the topic."
Randall Bell, author, Home Owner′s Manual

A New Standard For Other Authors To Follow. 16 Mar 2005
By Guy M. Blasi - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Upon the completion of reading this book, I realize that the authors have set a new and comprehensive standard for real estate investors. Investment in Real Estate is an interesting and often frustrating process. Don't let the title fool you, this is a SERIOUS book for serious real investors whether novice or veteran.

The authors obviously know their subject, which is highly diverse. You are guided around pitfalls, and problems. It's almost like you have a wise sage holding your hand because the authors have "been there and done that". I appreciated their candor and honesty throughout the book, but in particular their take on the "information guru's" who sell their get-rich-quick real estate tapes and CD's on the unsuspecting public.

All you other real estate authors take note. You have a new standard to shoot for. Five stars, easy.

Just what the doctor ordered 3 Feb 2005
By Justin Smith - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I have done some investing on my own but wanted to learn more about real estate. This book is awesome. It covers the basics and more complicated real estate investments. I now know what types of real estate I am going to pursue and how to analyze them. I read the entire book but I am sure I will keep coming back to it for the worksheets and checklists.

Wish I had seen it first 14 Sep 2006
By CJtravels - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am only mid-way through this book but it has already answered so many of my questions (that another book did not)! I am new to real estate investing but not new to real estate. This book is layed out (like the rest of the Dummies books) in a very easy to follow format. It points out items to definitely remember when considering transactions and also points out warnings.

Also, since they have no agenda other than to help you understand the process, they did not try to sell you anything (i.e.; get rich quick schemes). This Dummies book gives it to you straight -- Why you should invest in real estate; How real estate investments stack up against other types of investments, such as stocks, etc.; The benefits of building your wealth by staying in for the long term; What cash flow to expect in the short term, including the possibility of negative cash flow.
