A Great Quality Item – Tucson Real Estate Book Critique

The author mentions all of the pitfalls and hard work required in this business and clearly doesn’t try to mislead the reader into thinking it will be easy money. I appreciate the honesty, but must admit I won’t be pursuing pre-foreclosures at this time. Straightforward, makes sense, leads you thought-by-thought in a way others don’t. And he is definitely true to his word: he responds to emails!

The author demonstrates that it is difficult and tricky business, potentially very lucrative, but not a get rich quick scheme. Since I would like to get rich without this much work, I’ll pass on this method.

In business endeavors, there is a difference between how business is perceived by the public; then there is the way that business functions are supposed to work in theory (what is taught in school); and then there is the way that business functions work in reality. One important point is not to contact owner’s cold.

I really enjoyed this book. I went into the right livelihood of the real estate industry by becoming a real estate agent, then a Realtor. If you are curious to find out whether or not real estate is for you, or a serious investor, this book will seriously assist you in making decisions. It is a complete kit for the serious investor, yet a reality check for those who are not too sure about investing into real estate.

He responded in less than 24 hours. More than that, he voluntarily sent a follow up email with more helpful information (that is relevant for my geographic area).

Lucier is a REAL investor, with personal experience. Those are the type of authors you want to read from. This booked helped me a lot to buy a foreclosure property. Also, the realtor I worked with was surprised how much I know about buying a property.

The author not only discusses the high potential profits to be made but also many of the inherent pitfalls and risks to be aware of when doing these deals. You will learn many essential aspects of this area of investing, such as financing sources, how to contact and negotiate with the owners, doing property inspections, resources to help in researching title, and fixing up properties so they can be marketed for top resale value.

The most amazing part is that he not only answers your emails personally, but he answers them fast. No other author I’ve come across does that.

However, for the “doers” out there who want to be properly educated, they will find this book to be wonderfully helpful. The book is worth many times its cost just as a resource for other information. I’m sure I’ll refer to it again in the future. I have bought at least 4 programs from so called “real estate gurus”. But if you’re not American, beware! With transportation, that’s over $40 wasted.

This book is so over-the-top with practical advice, it’s a give-away at any price! Wholesale Dog Food.
