I've had the honor of previewing the upcoming book "Insider Secrets of the World's Most Successful Real Estate Investors" and it's fantastic.

I have read several book and think I know just enough to get myself thorwn in jail.

In my "partying" days I would come home from a party (by myself) and read about 3/4 of a r.e. financing book before falling asleep.

I have read a couple of books.

In my book, thats stupid expensive and not worth looking into.

i was reading one of the many trump books in Borders...of course i didn't buy it!

I'll take a look at the book you recommended.rxr

I look at message boards and attend a REIG meeting and I see these newbie all the time and I hear a few things constantly 1. a newbie asking WHAT IF question on EVERYTHING they seem to have read in the books, the most annoying are the what if’s and have you questions like what if this breaks or have you found more lead in the MLS or in the paper?

I was reading an older book (2000) by Dallow where he states that in foreclosure auctions in NY, the buyer has to pay the homeowner $10,000.

Type "tax liens" on Amazon to get some good reference books.
