Wow, your book is amazing Dave, I read half of it in one seating, and looking to sit again to read the rest!  

I consider myself somewhat of a book worm and try to read every book I get my hands on so I'm about to start reading my next book on REI.

I want to get knowledge and avoid buying a PROMOTIONAL book. I

Dave Lindahl's apartment book is what helped me make the change, but there are many others out there,  explaining the same thing.

The 10x book is what kinda got me wanting to kick it into gear.    

I think we are talking about the same thing from different perspectives.No, cap rate=NOI/market value(sales price)10%=10,000 NOI/100,000 market value10%=$20,000 NOI/ $200,000 market value.So what you're saying is that everything I read in this book and what this entire book is about is wrong?

Dale's book is an excellent resource for any Canadian buying US real estate.

The book I recommend the MOST to anyone is "The unofficial Guide to Real Estate" by Spencer Strauss.

The most recent book I completed - "The Weekend Millionaire's Real Estate Investing Program: How to Get Rich in Your Spare Time" mentions some no money down ways of making deals, but it seems like it would be a case by case basis, depending on the seller's intent, or you would simply have to find a trusted investor.  

It isn't a new idea though, I put myself through college doing the same thing with used cars, and Julius Caesar probably had a buddy who did it with used chariots, it's called "curbing" when it's cars.IIRC his book is about $50 but I've seen them on ebay for less than $5.
