My current Top 5 Real Estate Investing Books
Like other active investors I am constantly looking for new material to read and review. I do it not so much to find new ways of investing but more to hear stories, challenges and deals. I estimate that I have read 200+ investing books to date and average about 2-3 a month. Without further a due here are my top 5 Real Estate Investing Books:
1) Investing in Fixer-Uppers by Jay DeCima
2) How I turned $1,000 into $5 Million in Real Estate in my Spare Time by William Nickerson
3) Investing in Goldmine Houses by Jay DeCima
4) The Millionaire Real Estate Investor by Gary Keller
5) Equity Happens by Robert Helms and Russell Gray
The keys behind each of these books were the author’s review of past deals and details on what it took to be successful over the long term. These are not get rich quick stories but instead offer principals the average investor can leverage in today’s market.
My listed is obviously slanted towards my buy and hold strategy.
Please let me know if you have read other great Real Estate Investing books or even Biographies of Investors.

Just found this post but I actually just finished Equity Happens I recommend it to all of the buy and hold guys and even flippers it's a fantastic book. Written before the Crash but still fantastic read and guide for people who are in a hot market right now like a lot of us are.
