I just received Steve's book and let me just say that I was totally blown away by the amount of info in this one book. It is clear that Steve is an expert on real estate investing- he doesn't give you any b.s info on the no money down approach but he offers a very sensible and intelligent approach to purchasing buildings. In no way am I an expert on the subject of real estate investing but i have read at least 10 books so far on this subject. By far, Steve comes across as the most experienced and seasoned real estate investor. If you are looking to invest in buildings, then look no further. Just buy this book...its all you need. Believe me, its that good. I am returning the "Income Stream"- it was a total waste of money compared to this book. You will not regret it.

I can't tell you what a great book this is. I started reading it one day and couldn't put it down. It is an easy to read, information packed book for anyone who wants to invest in apartment buildngs. He tells you to exactly how to value the property and exactly what to look for when purchasing a building. I just sent a copy to my brother so he can enjoy it too!

This is a terrific book for someone interested in approaching real estate investment in a serious way -- using analysis and sound business principles. But if you are only interested in the "no money down" & "get rich quick" schools of thought, pass on this book.

I don't know what BASICS (other review) is talking about. The financial models are explained, and it is not heavy on marketing his software. Outside of a financial textbook this is one of the better fundamentals books I have read. Stresses value play - in-out - approach, but the key financial ratios and it's points are very astute. If you are looking to get into the business this is a great introduction and, I would say, a must read.
