Real Estate Investing From A to Z

Sensible, conservative real estate investing continues to be one of the most popular methods for small investors to prepare for future financial security. Real Estate Investing from A to Z explains real estate investing in simple, easy-to-understand terms that are relevant to any investor. It doesn't paint another pie-in-the-sky approach to real estate riches, in which the only people who get rich are promoters of high-priced seminar programs. Instead, Real Estate Investing from A to Z shows readers how to buy one or more homes using very little of their own money, and get discounts of 10% or more from market value. This revised edition contains updated information on:

• Limited partnerships, REITs and lender sales where exceptional investor opportunities are still available

• Getting the most from a home inspection, especially when buying older properties

• The use and future of electronic media in buying, selling and managing real estate

• Using your personal computer and on-line services to discover and research properties
