My expectations were low at first. I've heard so many people bashing GURUs on the subject of investing in RE and thought I'd hear the same advice. I couldn't have been more WRONG!
Ken McElroy, takes the time to explain all the tools you will need in order to be successful in RE investing. The thing I found most helpful is the end of the chapter To Do List. Have you ever read a chapter and moved on to the next chapter without an action plan...Not in this book!
McElroy talks about the things that made him a success as well as a recommended path for you to be successful. He doesn't cover flipping properties. When he does mention Flipping Properties, he advises against it.
I would recommend this book to the beginner and intermediate investor. For 2 reasons, this book will move you into the doing stage of your investing career with its action plan. Secondly, there is no fluff here. He gives you fact after fact.

First, I was a bit skeptical because although I really liked the Rich Dad series, I thought it was extremely light in the "how" department. Everything he said made sense, but how do I do it? Well the ABC's of Real Estate Investing will take it to the next step and tell you how.
I listened to the audio book version but I'm sure I'll buy the regular book as well because there is just so much information in this book, especially the checklists. Ok, so why is this book great? Because it's written by someone who actually did all this stuff and is successful. He uses real examples from properties he's owned in the Phoenix area. I lived in this area for 9 years, and I can say everything he said about it made a lot of sense. You don't need to be from Phoenix, I'm just saying that I think the author really knows his stuff.
ATTENTION! Here is a one thing you may or may not like (judging from other reviews): This book uses multi-family (apartment buildings) in all the examples. They cost millions. So although on one hand he makes it sound easy enough that I could do it, I'm not comfortable going after a two million dollar property for my first one! HOWEVER, I think everything he said would apply to an individual family home as well. This didn't bother me at all, and if I ever get a chance at a multi-family unit I'll have more confidence to do it.
If you listen to the audio book, the author reads it himself. Something I really enjoy. I don't like some guy reading as fast as he can, Ken McElroy reads it as if he's sitting next to you telling you face to face. While some of the phrases sound a bit corny or even fake, "Now we don't want any surprises do we?", I think it gives his reading a bit of charm.
Overall, not the only book you need but definitely one of the best I've seen. Great job Ken! Now if only the original Rich Dad series was this good! ;)
