Reality Based Real Estate Investing

Real Estate investing has been a tried and true path to accumulating wealth. It is also a lot of work. There are many unseen pitfalls and risks. John Mazzara has successfully sold, owned/managed, and financed investment properties since 1986. Experience counts. John provides you will direction and recommendations so that you can correctly identify opportunities in today's real estate investing marketplace. There are real life examples from the trenches. Unlike other books, you will be given an overview of the big picture so that you can put it all together: goals creation, property selection, holding period considerations, tax strategies, correct financing, proper insurance and tenant management. The book title refers to "reality based" investing because too many books base their information on unrealistic assumptions or gloss over the work involved to become successful. This information is applicable to landlords and budding real estate entrepreneurs everywhere.
