I'm two thirds the way reading "I buy houses" by Paul Do and I think this book is one of the best I've read.
It's an Australian book, about Aussie RE, written by Aussie.
In his 20+ years experience (in his words) he's come to many of the same conclusions I have, and makes some opinionated point in this book.
and though I don't agree with all of them, they still give food for thought.
At times it seems like I'm reading my own posts here about subject like spruijers, new developments.
He then goes through his own "System T" which I would say is not all that ground breaking, or new concepts, but like most of the concepts in the book, is presented in a very practical manner and easy to read & follow.
So in case you aint guessed it, I really like this book and think it's a great read and much much better than the american Kiyo-who? books that hardly show any practical detail, and what's there refers to the US market.
And he's already on record for what he thinks of the Aussie market and internet users.
So I think this book belongs in my top shelf next to:
Next book I bought was Top 100 Stocks 2010 by Roth for the only reason that evand said he buys it.
As usual he's right. For $30 you get generic research on a whole stack of listed companies that would take a long time to do yourself.
The downside is it may make you lazy and not research others.
And of course Roth is anything but perfect in his stock picks, and I found it
amusing that though everything across the board got cained he still finds something to brag about.
Still worth the 30 bux I thought.
And just for the noobs who are to lazy to do research and look up my previous posts, I get nothing from these authors, but they get lots of **** from me on this forum.
