 Wall Journal Aug 24, 2008
The book is an excellent reference and it's a good book to follow for planning your financial life style without being a dreamer.
Good read.. very broad and a little dry Jan 02, 2008
This is a good book with a unique point of view. It covers a very broad range of topics including financing, commercial, and others. The book offers some good advice. I did find it a little dry and drawn out at times. Regardless, a good source of practical information to round out your real estate studies. This book doesn't focus on this point and time in real estate but more of a timeless strategy.

A great place to start Dec 20, 2007
First of all, this book is remarkable for being totally devoid of B.S.
How often can you say that about a book on any topic? Seems like a good jumping off point for a potential investor like myself. It's very broad and very basic. Mr. Crook employs a refreshing blend of encouragement and realism with an emphasis on discipline and preparedness.
While his approach rings true, I have a minor issue with his criticism of people with nice cars, boats, mansions, etc. as I believe there could be a season in life to enjoy those things responsibly if one so chooses. Besides this small bit of moral snobbery this was the perfect read for someone in my position.

Solid read Sep 22, 2007
This book has a lot of very good points and ideas, but it won't be the last book you'll need. This book does offer a very handy list of websites and other suggested readings in the appendix. Overall, a solid book, but you will need to do more research for many real estate concepts.
