Summary: Bland, but informative
Comment: A good reference book for funding your real estate projects. Not very motivating, but a good tool to have in your library nonetheless. There's got to be better out there, I just have'nt come across it yet.

Customer Rating:

Summary: real estate master's student
Comment: This book has endless grammatical mistakes. The book has virtually useless subjects that run on and on. If you want to read about how to make money selling potentially exotic plants from the front of a house you are looking to buy, then this is the book for you. If you want a book on finance, look up Bruggeman's book on Real Estate Finance. Save your money and time. Don't read this "filler" book.

Summary: Solid
Comment: Cummings is one of my favorite R.E. authors. He is very thorough. This one has chapters on conventional and creative financing, tax exchanges, land development, discounting mortgages, sale-leasebacks, how to get started and even dealing with foreclosure. Table of contents is very thorough and makes it very easy to go to the exact page you want to to find specific information. He is good with the numbers and doesnt leave much to the imagination like many authors do. I recommend anything by this author.

Summary: Excellent "Creative Real Estate Financing" manual
Comment: This "no-nonsense" book, by a seasoned investor and broker, is mostly focused on non-traditional real estate financing vehicles. Bits and pieces on the subject have previously taught by various gurus, but this book covers ALL of them. If every Realtor and investor read this, we would all be better off.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Solid, comprehensive, but a bit verbose
Comment: This and Landlording, by Leigh, are my two fave's so far as a real estate investor. This one tends towards overkill with many, many examples but other readers may want that more than I did. There are one or two strategy recommendations I disagree with rather heartily, but it's clear, pretty much accurate, and very readable. The no-nonsense writing reminds me a bit of T. Dallow or J. Reed, both also recommended.
