Also good by Frank: "10 Commandments for Real Estate Investors" (http://amzn.to/15ikXL0) I reread this book (it's very short and to the point) five or six times a year.If there's still room in your stocking I would add these two, both great reads:"Confessions of a Real Estate Entrepreneur: What It Takes to Win in High-Stakes Commercial Real Estate" by Jack Randel (http://amzn.to/17mJU5j)"Creating and Growing Real Estate Wealth: The 4 Stages to a Lifetime of Success" by William J.

One of my tennants is quite the entrepreneur, as he has a business, and has had rental units in the past (temporarily living in this area).

Makes sense given both the density in downtown Chicago as well as the presence of younger entrepreneurs, startups, etc.

One huge program that had made over $100M in this pursuit was started by an entrepreneur who had admitted to me personally that he was never a real estate investor.

He also emailed out some of his slides, spreadsheets and documents with us so we have the details to hand.I thoroughly learned all the math to buy a good deal: maximum allowable purchase price, cost per unit, gross rent multiplier, net operating income, cap rate, debt service rule of thumb (.007), profit per unit, cash on cash return, coverage ratio and expenses rule of thumb percentages.I learned questions to ask a broker, the order to do things (check math before offering, confirming expenses before viewing property), how to use hard money lenders, negotiating with vendors and dealing with their objections, using vendor take back strategies, what to do in due diligence (everything), a list of clauses with how they benefit the purchaser and how to negotiate with them, how to stack the clauses, strategies for becoming a RE entrepreneur, ideas for creative financing, how to do no money down deals, how to make offers, what types of exit strategies affect the negotiations and more.I haven't spent much time on this site yet so this is probably covered along with lots more.

I also do a few things outside real estate which have helped me immensely as a young entrepreneur if you're interested in hearing about them.

You seem like a true entrepreneur, engaging in several different ideas at once to become successful.

I am an independent realtor, as well as an investor and entrepreneur.

It's about the concept, the mindset of an entrepreneur.

Being an entrepreneur is a dream of mine and a Real Estate is a part of that dream.
