Average Rating:
Rating: - Easy to understand, kind of basic, good to start with
I found this book to be a good start, it didn't really go into much detail on how to get into a rental property with no money down. It did some, but is more of a basic book for starters. I myself am a starter, but was wanting to know more in depth than this book offered. Over all I thought it was an ok book. This is a good book to start with, but don't expect to become an expert from it.
Rating: - Great Guide
You'll be surprised by this book, I was. It's not about unrealistic tricks (like using a personal note as a down payment, which was in the last book I read, and which a seller told me I was ridiculous when I tried it). It shows how to use government backed financing (Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae) to get mortgages for more than 100 percent of your purchase costs. This book is solid - it tells exactly how to do it, every step. The best "nothing down" book I've ever read.
