Customer Reviews

Very Helpful Book

After reading several of the "make millions overnight in real estate" books that are on the market, I bought this one. I enjoyed the individual examples given in this book and the down-to-earth advice. This book WILL NOT make you rich overnight. It WILL describe how you can build a real income and true wealth over a reasonable period of time, with some patience and hard work. Since buying this book a year ago, I have purchased five houses. It did take some time, it did take some money of my own (although not too much) and it did take some work to get the houses rented. Now I can hopefully pay the mortgages down a bit faster than normal and build equity, which will allow me to have some very valuable assets in my financial portfolio in the years to come. This is a very helpful book and I recommend it to anyone who is considering the possibility of using single-family properties as an investment vehicle.

What is the biggest check you ever received?

Without a doubt the biggest check I have ever received has been from a real estate transaction. Here, Carlos shows us how simple the formula for wealth really is. What else can you buy that appreciates over time while you depreciate it each year?Since reading this little book and attending the first seminar my wife and I have bought one house and have another in escrow. At least one a year, hopefully more when the deals are right...that is my plan for a retirement income in ten years!

A "must have" book for real estate investing

This is a "must read" for those getting into the real estate investing market. I found this book to be easy to read and even simpler to understand. Carlos weaves consistent, logical themes throughout the book which stick with the reader and provide a common sense framework for successful real estate investing. The use of real life examples was especially helpful for me as I am still a novice investor. It proved easier to apply his rules for investing on my own potential investments after understanding and learning from his own real life experiences.The best part about this book is that it has taken the fear of investing in the real estate market out of the equation for me. I am now quite motivated to jump into the home market and buy my first property with the information I have gleamed from this book. The book covers all of the initial fears you can experience about real estate investing and tackles them all. I highly recommend it!

Bulletproof Home Investing!!

During the 1990's I worked a as Realtor for Carlos Royal at Sea Royal Realty in Encinitas, CA. My desk was literally ten feet away from Carlos, so I literally watched him buy dozens of homes and have been in some of residences illistrated in the book. The "Wow" book is all true, and can make anyone a millionaire who reads and follows Mr Royal's system. His information, techniques, and insights, are helpful to both neophite and can "tune-up" the experienced investor. I have invested in single family homes for over 15 years. After reading the "Wow" book I much better comprehend the market forces and nuances effecting appreciation and market trends. This is a well written must read for anyone serious about building wealth through SFR and Condo investing!!! Robert Stine
