2 There are better books for the money
I found this to be a pretty expensive book, considering the information conveyed. It offers some valuable tidbits and I always gain new information, so it was not a total waste. However, my opinion is that the books by authors such as Robert Shemin, Irene and Mike Milin, and Andrew McLean and Gary Eldred gave me much more bang for the buck even though they weren't focused solely on lease/options. I was looking for a "turnkey" guide, and in my opinion, this is not it. It doesn't even have any example lease or option forms, which would seem to be quite helpful in a "turnkey" package. Of course, they will soon be available on their website for more $$$$. Also, each chapter ends with two pages of six questions which were basically useless to give the book more heft.
However, in giving credit where it is due, it appears that the author has quite a portfolio of homes on his website and is actually making money at what he does. That's more than can be said for a lot of authors who are out giving seminars on how to make money in real estate. The book is worth reading, but I'd probably start somewhere else first.
3 Lease Options - Finally a Great Alternative to Basic Rentals
It's great to have someone put out the details of how to truly build significant income layers while avoiding the many pitfalls associated with rental properties.
In this book, Matthew points out some of the traditional problems associated with rental property, and how to avoid those while at the same time bringing in MORE MONEY!
Just when you think it sounds a little too good to be true, Matthew backs up his information with true life scenarios and even ultra-conservative examples. As he mentions, many actual transactions go much better when executed in the real world.
Matthew and his contributor (Wes Weaver) have helped start my real-estate investing out on the right track!
