Product Description:
After the housing crash of 2008, the majority of guidebooks written on how to invest in real estate and flip houses became obsolete, their advice and methods predicated on a credit landscape that had just vanished overnight. In the economic climate of today, a new paradigm is needed, and Investing Now fills that void.

A step-by-step book to overcoming the primary challenges of today’s difficult real estate market to create income and build wealth by flipping houses.

Jim Ingersoll’s how-to guide will help create extraordinary opportunity in the one of the toughest recessions in history by teaching you:

• How to find the right house to buy (with or without a Realtor)

• How to fund your purchase without needing a bank
• How to renovate your new home to increase its maximum value
• How to prepare to sell your home
• How to use the power of the Internet and social media to help sell your home

Timely, incisive, and fundamentally sound, Jim Ingersoll’s primer on creating opportunity, income, and wealth amidst an economy on the downturn is a revelation, the kind of handbook that is more gift than guide.

“This book is an excellent road map for real estate investors to follow as they invest in today’s economic climate. With a clear vision Jim Ingersoll shows the reader how to properly buy and sell in this incredible market. An excellent read!”
Troy Ross, President of RRIEA

“FINALLY, a no-nonsense, step by step, REAL LIFE, guide to Real Estate Investing! I have read many guides to Real Estate Investing and find this to be the one that should be used as THE industry textbook. As a Real Estate and Small Business Accountant with a huge portfolio of Real Estate Professionals and Investors across the country I will be suggesting this book as required reading and plan to offer it for sale in my office and on my website. Thank you, Jim, for once again providing a superb product!”
Jennifer L. Davis, EA, ATA, ATP

“Jim is one of the few people who’s writing I can trust. Investing Now will show you how to grow and thrive while others are cowering, retreating and running away.”
Michael Jake, Founder of Swift Results, Inc

“Investing Now is the best news of the year. It will prepare you to gain control over uncertainty at the same time when many others are busy burying their head in the sand.”
David Phelps, former private practice dentist and founder of David Phelps, International

Reader Review's

First, I think I will reread it when I can, because even though I made notes it has a lot of information to take in. Second, as someone who has been dealing with rentals for sometime there was a lot of things that you pointed out that will be very helpful… like the info about the “Self Directing IRA”, and the tips for finding houses… like talking to your local code enforcement (which I did today, they gave me three houses to check already! that have been vacant for a year or more).

Matthew Starr

Jim, I just got done reading your book and it had a great influence on me. I definitely learned a lot. Melissa and I are committed to learning more. Great job

Product Description:

The New York Times bestseller hailed as "the best business book of 2010" (Huffington Post).

As soon as the financial crisis erupted, the finger-pointing began. Should the blame fall on Wall Street, Main Street, or Pennsylvania Avenue? On greedy traders, misguided regulators, sleazy subprime companies, cowardly legislators, or clueless home buyers?

According to Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera, two of America's most acclaimed business journalists, the real answer is all of the above-and more. Many devils helped bring hell to the economy. And the full story, in all of its complexity and detail, is like the legend of the blind men and the elephant. Almost everyone has missed the big picture. Almost no one has put all the pieces together.

All the Devils Are Here goes back several decades to weave the hidden history of the financial crisis in a way no previous book has done. It explores the motivations of everyone from famous CEOs, cabinet secretaries, and politicians to anonymous lenders, borrowers, analysts, and Wall Street traders. It delves into the powerful American mythology of homeownership. And it proves that the crisis ultimately wasn't about finance at all; it was about human nature.

Through its five previous editions, Investing in Real Estate has shown investors how to intelligently build wealth with their investments in houses, condominiums, and small apartment buildings.

Plus, you will discover how to add tens of thousands of dollars of value to nearly any property. Whether you plan to start investing or move   your current investing strategy to a higher level, two decades of sales success testifies to the fact that this investing guide stands superior to any others that you will find.

This new edition covers all the recent changes in the market, including the latest housing rescue legislation from Congress, a historical review of how to profit from property cycles, and insightful new ways to gain from the current excess inventories of for-sale properties, foreclosures, and REOs.  

• Author Gary W. Eldred has also authored ten other successful real estate titles, including The Beginner’s Guide to Real Estate Investing, The 106 Mistakes Homebuyers Make—and How to Avoid Them, and The 106 Mortgage Secrets that All Borrowers Must Learn—but Lenders Don’t Tell
• Completely revised to cover current ways to prosper in today’s property markets
• Includes new, insider techniques for foreclosure investing
• Features fifteen new ways to profit with property investments
• Shows you how to buy properties for less than they are worth from many sources including auctions, bank sales, and homebuilders

Investing in Real Estate, Sixth Edition retains its premier position as the most reliable, informative, and comprehensive guides to successful real estate investing.
