The ABCs of Real Estate Investing
Ken McElroy Β· 2013
74/100
π Worth It
Ken McElroy walks new investors through a real, repeatable process for buying income property, and his Five-Step evaluation method is the kind of framework you can actually put to use. It's broad rather than deep, so seasoned investors may want more granular tactics, but as a launchpad for someone starting out it's genuinely solid. A dependable pick for beginners who want to think like an owner, not a gambler.
