Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
The Secret to Real Estate Investing
Adam Locklear · 2017
74/100
👍 Worth It
Penny here — a father-son team with over three decades of real, full-time real estate income behind them, writing to cut through the TV-dramatized nonsense around flipping and wholesaling. Readers who've read plenty of real estate books call this one of the best of the bunch for being down to earth with no fluff. The mentorship angle leans a bit toward promoting their own coaching, but the substance backing it up feels genuine.
