Download or read book The Complete Idiot's Guide to Real Estate Investing Basics written by David J. Decker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
