[.ca] Find It, Fix It, Flip It!: Make Millions in Real ...

Not the best, but not the worst either.:
This was the third book I read on the subject of flipping real estate and while it wasn't worst book I've read, much of the information seemed to be a repeat of what the others covered. There still is plenty of information contained within that other authors never mention, so this is still worth reading if you're exploring the topic. I started with Kirsten Kemp's Flipping Confidential which I found to be a well organized primer on flipping. If you've never read any books on the subject, start with that book first. If you want a true, step-by-step manual, try Rick Villani's FLIP: How to Find, Fix, and Sell Houses for Profit. After reading that book, I felt like I had a clear program to follow and had I had the cash, I would have been ready to start flipping.

Info on Demand!!:
Another Book by Michael Corbett that is written well! This is info on demand in the real estate business (for todays market).

Great Mid-life Crisis Book for Dreamers:
My husband bought this book due to deal with his Mid-life Crisis desire to buy houses and fix them up to make money. He first got the book out of the library and then asked me to buy him a copy of it through Amazon.com. This is a positive sign that it is a good book because he is the type who will not purchase a book unless he really plans on referring to and using it. Too bad the economy took a turn for the worse but this does not change the fact that the book is interesting and full of enough helpful hints and ideas that he feels he eventually can pursue his dream. Better that than having an affair or buying a red Ferrari...

Good for beginners:
Good book, easy to read with easy-to-use formulas. However, it is meant for beginners; there's alot more to know about the process.

Find it, Fix it, Flip it!:
I've read a number of books on this subject and found this one much more detailed and filled with far more practical information than the others. He even gives you a method to figure out the profitability of a flip that's easy to use. This allows you to set a budget for your flip so you know where you need to be to make money. His no BS approach keeps your feet on the ground so you understand that a lot of what you have to learn is through experience but he gives you enough info to be well armed to win. E. Lobato
