Whether wanting to become a part-time or full-time investor, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Real Estate Investing Basicsoffers readers the practical advice and knowledge they need to get started in the residential real estate market. Far from a book about the theory of investing in real estate, this practical guide is based on the knowledge of a legitimate, established expert-one who lives and works as an accomplished investor. This is not a book that tantalizes readers with the kinds of deals that are too good to be true-like making millions with no money down and questionable credit-or that no longer exist-like assumable mortgages that haven't been issued since the 1970s. This book provides readers with solid advice, ethical techniques, and practical knowledge.
