Best books on real state investing?

Question

Good morning!!

I'm new here, and posted my first post over in the new member introductions area last night... and I first wanted to say thank you for the kindness shown to me :)

I wanted to start a small library on real estate investing, maybe 3-4 books to start with....any recommendations of the top 3-4 books?  I'm new to RE investing and am interested in flipping, rentals, and wholesaling for now...

Thanks!!

Great to see another Floridian on BP!

There are so many, and @Brie Schmidt referred you to a great thread with lot's of good book recommendations.

One of my favorites is 'The Millionaire Real Estate Investor' by Gary Keller.  It is amazingly simple, and a nice audiobook listen if you're in the car a lot.  He covers all the topics you mentioned and then some.

@J  Scott wrote a great book on Flipping http://get.biggerpockets.com/flippingbook/ that moves past the concepts and reads more like a start to finish manual, extremely helpful!

and @Brandon Turner wrote a great book on buying RE with no/low money where he really delves into wholesaling http://get.biggerpockets.com/nomoneydown/

Welcome to BP.

There a a lot of real estate books to choose from. I have read over 250 real estate books. Some of my favorites are Brandon Turner's how to invest in real estate with no money down, J Scot's book on flipping and the third book is what every real estate investor need to know about by Frank Gallinelli.

Again there are many books out there, check them out.

Hope it helps.
