This is a review of “From Janitor to Multi-Millionaire” by R. Mike Weese. Let’s just say that I strongly believe that it should be required reading in high school and in college. Having said that, this is not your typical how-to book, however, it does give the readers tips on the way he purchased properties.
It’s true that he was lucky at the time and place when he started buying properties. Some of the methods that he used would not work today, but if read with an open mind and the reader thinks outside the box, the reader should be able to accomplish the same thing that he did. The book does not go into the concepts of real estate investing but rather the processes that he used in purchasing the properties he discusses in the book.
The book is easy to read. It took me a day to finish the book since I just couldn't put it down. There is neither fluff nor white noise. He lays it all out with why he purchased a property a certain way. He goes into great detail about the albatross that we all have around our necks. That chapter was very enlightening and it opened my eyes even wider.
Would I recommend this book? Yes, in a New York minute. Get the book, read it, read it again, and start to think outside the box. Once you have read it a few times, go out and purchase the properties you will start to see once your eyes are open to the possibilities that are in front of you.
