Great For New Investors Willing to REALLY Learn
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2018
My husband and I are just starting out in our real estate investment business and this book really breaks everything down for you, especially when it comes to calculating your ROI before making a purchase/deal and learning about the pros & CONS of each type of rental property. I love that he’s so honest and doesn’t just tell you that there’s one right way to do real estate. Instead he lays out the different options plain and simple and encourages you to do the work to decide what’s best for your lifestyle and skills. This book is not for the lazy, but rather those who are willing to learn and do the work for your future and posterity. This is a great read and I definitely recommend it for anyone just starting out in rental property investment.

This Book Actually Teaches You
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2017
This is the real estate book you are looking for. It isn't some get quick rich scam. It isn't some "I will reveal the secret on the NEXT page" book (i.e. Rich Dad/Poor Dad). It isn't a self-help book. It is a HOW TO book. I ordered this on Kindle but realized I am going to be using this as a manual and I ordered the physical book too. I also ordered his other two books (Managing Rental Properties and the No Money Down Book-I haven't read those yet however). He does refer to the BiggerPockets community that he is apart of but I think they are on to something. This book isn't an attempt to get you onto BiggerPockets but after reading it, I'm probably going to join. I have read a lot of useless investment books. This book walks you through the numbers which, I think in the end, is the only thing that really matters. I highly recommend it.

I've read Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I got suckered into their seminar where I did not learn anything I didn't know from the book. This is better because the guy who wrote it is talking about NOW. RDPD was written DECADES before the 2007 crash. Yes, the principles are the same, but I feel Turner has better cautionary notes and advice. There's a chapter on buying in an expensive area, which is particularly necessary for where I live.

Great book. It really gives you a good overview of what you need to know at every stage of the process buying and leasing rental properties. It also gives a good overview of the different strategies different investors use. What's nice about it is that he really leaves it up to the reader to decide how to best get into the rental property industry. This makes it a very good first book and it forces the reader to really consider how they want to invest and why they want to invest. I have read books by other authors where they only tell you about the strategy that they used and they make it sound like anyone who uses a different strategy in a moron. In reality, many people have found success using many different methods. As the author often writes "There is no one right answer, but there may be a right answer for you." Also, Brandon Turners gets very excited about real estate and that excitement is contagious. Five stars

I have been pretty much obsessed listening to Bigger Pockets podcasts over the last year - absolutely amazing content and resources for all things real estate investing. Due to his superior marketing abilities (lol) I decided to go ahead and buy Brandon Turner's (co-host of the podcast) book on rental property investing, my main strategy for building long term wealth. I have read a ton of real estate business books over the last several years, and this one is definitely in my top 3. The writing style and information within is super accessible, easy to understand, and helped clarify my personal goals and strategies. A lot of times in real estate investing, there is not one perfect way to do things, but you just have to find the strategy that resonates and works best with your own personality and goals. This book did an awesome job of laying out the different paths one could take, outlining the pros and cons of each strategy. It definitely helped clarify the path and actions I will be taking this year, knowing that my strategy will likely change 5 years down the road. Thanks Brandon!

Perfect addition to the library, especially if you're starting out
Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2020
I started investing 7 months ago and bought 3 duplexes, and a couple of small single family houses. I have bought half a dozen books, joined our local Real Estate investment groups, and started listening to Bigger Pockets podcast (In that order). If I had a guide, or anyone I could have asked, on how to get started, they would have said buy this book first! Read it cover to cover. Then get out there and start your journey. It lays out the "basic" (not simple, or easy) information everyone has to know in today's investor environment. It would have saved me thousands (no exaggeration) on my investments.

Very complete overview of rental properties
Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2017
This was a great, complete full picture of investing in rental properties and all that goes into it. Will definitely use this as a resource going forward and probably will read again. Many times the advice is "it depends", but that is real estate, there's not a one size fits all. But, what the book does do is gives you a roadmap on how to approach it and then which professional you should work with to get it done.

Not just another book! Best nonfiction book I've ever read.
Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2021
So, maybe I'm going overboard in my heading, but this is truly a great book. The narrator was funny, lovely, kept me engaged, and wasn't a robot. The author is literally giving all the secrets. Its not just a book on the philosophy of real estate investing, it's a guide. Step by step. In unreal detail, not expected by individuals looking to make money off of selling a product. Turner laid it all out, and gave examples with real numbers. I didnt ha e to guess what he meant. He explained everything. Any jargon familiar only to investors, explained it. How to calculate ROI or ARV...explained it. When I'm ready to start investing, I'm definitely going to read again, taking notes along the way. I really appreciate this book (with audible narration).

This is a good book if you just start learning about rental property investment. It is based on the authors personal journey and experience which starts with a single property and grows into 100s of rental units. Then is logically organized to walk you through from the mindset needed to start investing in rental properties to how to owning cash flowing properties to exist strategies if you decide to sell. I enjoy reading it and learn more than I expected about real estate from a single book.

This book is excellent. It covers in-depth the basics and nuances of investing in rental property, and I ended up reading this book almost three time fully because of what it has. Definitely applicable to real life scenarios, and it is a great and enjoyable read. My only criticism is that at times I feel as if I was being talked to like a child, but those moments were few and far between and it was all for the sake of clarity. Regardless, any person, whether new to investing or seasoned, should grab this book.

I've gone through almost 20 books in the last 6 weeks on various investing topics. Several were about real estate and this was a good one. I'd say that it covered what was in the other books and then went further with solid lists of how to do things and in what order.

I'm a real estate investor in Mexico already and considering investing in US real estate.

Overall, this book is a great starter if you're looking into getting into rentals. I found his style combined personable anecdotes with actionable advice. He does bring up the Bigger Pockets blog frequently, but I will say that it is a great resource with an active forum and you can also get access to lawyer-vetted state specific documents for leases. There is more to be learned outside of this book, but nonetheless a great foundation.

Good introduction and interesting referenced
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2020
This book is an excellent book for people who want to invest in rental properties. Most of the information of the first half of the book is basic knowledge that most readers probably already know (although a refresh does not hurt).. However, the last few chapters on insurance accounting management and tax offered me some additional insights that are not obtainable that easily elsewhere. Recommended read.
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2020
Awesome book so far, pretty motivating. I love that they discuss actual figures and that's something that is usually missing. A lot of books tend to repeat themselves conceptually over and over or seem to say "in this book we're going to show you just how to do that" for 300 pages and never cut to the chase. Great read, especially as an intro to real estate investing. 10/10 would recommend it has sparked a flame inside me that only makes me want to read more and more of these books. Bigger pockets crew is great, insightful, and helpful!

Excellent Introduction to Rental Property Investing
Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2016
As someone wanting an overview of the rental property business, I found this book very helpful. The author is knowledgeable and experienced, and shows a firm grasp of the various aspects of his trade. He evidences an clear passion for the rental business, which is contagious for the reader. The book was well-written and engaging, and had no trouble keeping my attention.
With that being said, there were a few issues:
1. The book would have benefited from a more thorough editing. There were a number of examples and pieces of advice which were repeated unnecessarily, and a handful of grammatical issues.
2. The author mentions his website, biggerpockets.com, an average of 5+ times each chapter (I verified this with a Kindle search). This got annoying fairly quickly.
3. In some of the sections – especially at the beginning – he sounded a bit like a motivational/self-help speaker. I felt like I was listening to a talk on the power of positive thinking. While this may be helpful for some, I ended up skipping these parts.
While these issues cheapened the book, it is still very well done and worth reading.

He broke down how to calculate ARV’s, how to add and subtract expenses, he explained the BRRR strategy in the most basic way, and he provided formulas and examples of breakdowns. The only thing I wished he would have covered was how to properly calculate or do a short sale. Other than that this book definitely deserves 5 stars. Unlike other books that ramble about nothing, he actually provided a lot of beneficial information.

If anything, I felt Brandon plugged his website a lot and he probably could have done that a little less, but that is such a small issue I'm not that concerned about it.
Definitely Worth money and time you will spend.

Took almost 2 weeks to read ( evenings. After work). Everything is explained and easy to understand. Very good tool to have in your tool bag.
If you are interested in REI, this is a very worthwhile read

I was researching the best way to create passive income after reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad and I came across this book. I had little to no prior understanding of Real Estate Investing (REI) prior to reading this book. I now feel that I have a very good understanding of how other individuals have been successful in real estate investing. From those various options discussed, there was enough information that I am now on the path to implement the plan that seems to align the most with my goals. I enjoyed the encouragement within the book to actually move forward with REI and so I have set a timeline for myself to do so.
A very worth while read. I have read many personal improvement and business books over the years and I would put this up in the top ten I have read, due to the practical content and ease of reading.
