Review by Guy M. Blasi for Real Estate Investing For Dummies, 2nd Edition

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.

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.

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.

This is an excellent book for beginners as well as experiences investors. It covers all of the basics and full of tips for all, experienced or not as of yet.
They speak in a common language that is easy to understand, not so complex or over your head. They are very knowledgeable in the real-estate field and it shows through this book.
At this time I own 2 doubles, 1 condo, and a 4-unit and I found it full of useful information and tips. I would recommend the purchase.

I’ve purchased several books on real estate(RE) investing and this book by far is the best of the lot. It is written in a concise yet informative manner and provides beginning investors with the techniques and strategies to get their RE investment careers off to a solid start. I’m sure I’ll be referring to this book many times throughout my RE investment career.
I would highly recommend this book!
