Many solid and popular books about rental property investing have already been recommended here, so I'll suggest some less obvious reads...Liar's Poker (Michael Lewis) for pure entertainment and a primer on how Wall Street supports liquidity in the housing market.Home (Witold Rybczynski) to appreciate the many different ways people want to live inside their homes.What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cash Flow (Frank Gallinelli) to understand when and how to deploy key financial metrics to make better decisions.Handyman In-Your-Pocket (Richard Young & Thomas Glover) to be your own handyman and/or check up on contractors and subs you hire to work on your rentals.Have fun and don't forget that you'll learn more by doing your first actual deal than you will from all the books in the world.
