Funny yes.Steve Berges was good.The Book for Dummies wasn't bad either because it was done by Peter Conti I believe.

If you want someone to read, I would personally suggest Peter Conti and David Finkel.

:roll: This thread is to warn you that if you give your e-mail address to any of his web sites, it will fall into the hands of spammers trying to sell you anything from Viagra to Vicodin.Fortunately, I use temporary e-mail addresses when giving it to sketchy web sites, like Conti's www.mentorfinancialgroup.com and www.reiclub.com.

It's written by David Finkel and Peter Conti called the Real Estate Fast Track.

Have any of you participated in Peter Conti's mentoring program?

In order to get the economy humming again, something has to give.Given we have been pushing our back against the low to deflation environment, the aristocrats will continue to look for a home with relatively secure yields, and real estate has been known to provide just that.  

@Christian Conti Assuming your looking for for long term rentals you should first narrow your search to states that have landlord friendly laws.

Plus 199/month fee for biweekly calls with Peter Conti and other investors. 

I also invest in dividend growth stocks (mostly Dividend Aristocrats) in a Roth IRA.

Comparatively, Stock market is almost no work.Putting $5M into a diversified portfolio or a set of aristocratic stocks with good dividends will pay you a health living stipend.
