(Hide Review...)  First step into multi-family investing
Reviewer Permalink
This book is the next level of The ABC's of Real Estate Investing. This time, the author educates readers about multi-family investing, which is different than single-family investing. A multi-family investor can benefit from economies of scale. For example, how many ads do you have to place when you are advertising for a 100-unit apartment complex versus a 100 single-family homes? One versus a hundred.

In this book, the author provides his beliefs why multi-family properties are the best real estate investments, how to identify and close deals, and how to build a team that will help with your real estate investments. I would also suggest educating yourself more on the subject before jumping into multi-family investing, but I think that this book is a great start.

(Hide Review...)  Not just for the advanced investor
Reviewer Permalink
I recommend this book to anyone who read the Rich Dad Poor Dad series. This book was well written and covers a lot of areas of investing, from understanding a hot market, multi family units, securing the deal, making sure you got the best deal and much more. This isn't just for the advanced investor, even newbies can understand these concepts. Now I know why they're Kiyosaki's advisors, they know they're stuff!

(Hide Review...)  A great addition to the Rich Dad series
Reviewer Permalink
If you have read other books from the Rich Dad series then this is a must read. This book focuses on more specific issues with investing in real estate and focuses on multifamily investments. It covers looking for the deal, going through the process of negotiating the deal, and most importantly, doing due diligence! For someone wanting to get started in real estate rentals then this book has a lot of useful information.

(Hide Review...)  Pretty Decent Intro To Apartment Complex Investing
Reviewer Permalink
I came across this book at Barnes & Nobles and since it was under the Rich Dad banner I gave it a shot. I liked the section of dispelling the myths of investing in multifamily units, i.e. "you gotta start small", and "you need the Midas Touch".
The author discusses several projects that he has worked on and breaks down the process into several key steps.
Truthfully, it's not a "be all, end all" book for apartment investing, but I liked the fact that he explained his methodlogy in a simple, easy to digest fashion.
I invest heavily in single family residences and tri/quad-plexes, since the rental market is hot(smokin' like Texas BBQ) and sellers are deeding me houses at a rate of 5 per week. Apartment buying in this market AND for the forseeable future is going to be the next big thing.
You need to seriously educate yourself about this subject.
