Extremely Pleased – Tucson Real Estate Book Critique

We sent him an email and within 15 minutes we had a response with helpful information. This is an excellent book for beginners and a thorough reference guide for people already investing. This easy-to-read, flowing, simple-to-understand manual is absolutely essential reading for the serious and the initially curious-soon-to-be-serious individual who is looking to make a living or dabble in part-time by investing in real estate pre-foreclosures anywhere within the United States. Mr Lucier is obviously very knowledgeable and passionate in what he does, and it shows through his writing. This book provides excellent insight for buying pre-foreclosures. It is well-written, easy to understand, and insightful. This is not a business for everyone, as Thomas points out, you actually have to work at it, do your homework and LEARN. If you are considering buying only one book on Real Estate, buy this one.

However, I don’t think I have found another book to be more realistic and resourceful than The Pre-Foreclosure Property Investor’s Kit. It literally provides step by step instruction on how to be a successful investor.

This is the only author that I know of that responds to your email questions personally. I email him a question today and he responded with answers in a couple of hours.

We get it Thomas, we won’t get rich next month in Real Estate. It almost sounds like one should just pass on the business because of all the pitfalls and scams. Don’t spend thousands on those get rich quick courses either. Spring Market starts End of February. The book is very straight-forward, no fluff, and Tom actually does respond to questions you have regarding the material. I read a lot of real estate investing books, but this is possibly the best one. Mr Lucier takes a lot of the mystery out of it. While pre-closures take time, effort and due diligence, Mr Lucier’s book guides you through what to do and what not to do step-by-step.

Mr Lucier is quite thorough in his explanations of all the issues to be addressed in any distressed-property deal. Finally, I can add to the testimonials of earlier reviewers in confirming that I did write an e-mail question to Mr Lucier, and received a response in less than one hour. He also goes into a lot of detail on the pitfalls most beginners such as myself will face. One of the greatest thing about the book is the due diligence steps one should take to be successful in this field. Thomas also lists all sorts of public record sites, sites to locate people, demographic information sites and comparable sales data sites. There is zero hype or motivational-make a fortune type rah-rah, it’s simply page after page of facts. This book is well written, easy to understand, and a pleasure to read. Mr Lucier gives step by step instructions complete with samples of necessary documents needed to complete transactions.

Top notch, and highly recommended! I just bought the book weeks ago and started reading about 50 pages; it is very detailed and straight forward.

I bought his book to learn something new and I did, not to mention the man gets to the point and tells it like it is. Gloss White Coffee Table.
