Comments on Real Estate Investing From A to Z : The Most Comprehensive, Practical, and Readable Guide to Investing Profitably in Real Estate
The best book that I have read to date. Now that me and my husband are successful real estate investors, all of our friends want in on the actions. We recommend that they read this book first. In fact, before, we will answer too many of their questions. This book covers it all and is very up to date.

I was searching for a good book that would give me the basics on real estate investment and came across this one at a bookstore. Judging from the title, I thought this HAS to have the most definitive information that I’m looking for in order to get started as an investor. What I found was this book made my head spin. Don’t get me wrong, it has a wealth of information and I’ll probably refer back to it as the need arises. I guess I was looking for more of a step by step guide or something with a more orderly approach. This is more like a dictionary – so, you’d better know exactly what you’re looking for before you open it. I bought this several months ago and still haven’t finished reading it. In my opinion, it’s not the type of book that you would (or could for that matter) sit down and read from cover to cover, but it does have some useful info nonetheless.

Wonderful book for the beginner. While more motivational and thought provoking than purely step-by-step instructional it certainly de-mystifies the process and provides the average reader with enough real life examples that at least one (or more) should appeal to you. I would say this book emboldened me to get out and do something in real estate investing.

I found this to be a real meat-and-potatoes book. Crammed with lots of information, you should learn something from Pivar regardless of your experience level. Great addition to the library.
He focuses on generating wealth through land ownership, commercial properties, single family homes, and property conversions. He also covers how using options and long-term appreciation can sweeten your deals.

THIS WAS AN EASY TO READ, VERY INFORMATIVE BOOK ABOUT THE BUSINESS OF REAL ESTATE INVESTING…JUST LIKE IT SAYS…FROM A TO Z. IT OUTLINED INVESTING AND FINANCING TECHNIQUES FROM THE SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT FOREWARD TO MORE COMPLEX. GIVES INSPIRING EXAMPLES, NOT UNREALISTIC SUNSHINE AND B.S.! I WOULD BUY IT AGAIN.
