"The insight into how first time buyers can raise a downpayment is worth the price of the book alone. A book for buyers who want to work proactively with their realtors."("Real Estate Weekly," May 21, 1996)"The principles in Hot Tips apply to almost any market."(Mike Grenby, syndicated financial columnist)."I bought five copies of Hot Tips and showed one client the part where Aqlim first borrows on her equity, buys a condo and rents it out. Within a week my client went out with me and bought a condo."(A realtor in White Rock, B.C.)These are only a few of the comments on this book (taken right off the website) Don't be dismayed by the year in which the book was published (1996).It is based solely on strategics, though the real estate market was different in the 90's, strategy remains the same.I think the good thing about this book is that if you follow the underlying current of advice, you will get a good deal.
Evidence that anyone can do well investing in real estate

This is a well written book. I happen to live in the city where this lady bought these houses. It is a great example of a well written "how to" book for anyone interested in wealth creation through residential real estate. Of particular interest is the fact that this was done in Canada! Canadians are typically less entrepreneurial than Americans, which means there could be more opportunity for Canadians when it comes to real estate investing. I would recommend this book to anyone who is buying residential, revenue real estate. Many good examples of creative financing that actually took place. Worth the money.
