Real Estate Riches: How to Become Rich Using Your Banker's Money (Rich Dad's Advisors)

People have been conditioned to purchase real estate retail like they do other consumer goods. Investments should never be treated as a retail purchase! The advice to "Buy Low; Sell High" applies to any investment but this book also encourages a potential real estate investor to look for hidden value. Much of the advice in this book is also equally applicable to acquiring a property as one's primary residence and quite a bit of it can be applied to other investments. I recommend following this book with the multimedia course, "6 Steps to Becoming a Successful Real Estate Investor."

I give this book my highest recommendation possible. Not only for his ability to teach the basic principles of real estate investing in a very easy to understand way, but also because of how inspiring and encouraging this book is to help you take the right steps. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Fast and easy reading, and potentially pave the way to millions— seriously. https://www.amazon.com/Real-Estate-Riches-Bankers-Advisors/dp/0446678643/ref=nodl_

Good information especially about the financial side. The only reason I did 4 stars is because I thought a little more practical detail would have been nice.

This was a good basic introduction on WHY real esate is a good investment...I don't personally think it should be 100% of a person's portfolio, so the reader needs to be very careful and not get carried away into thinking 'real esate is where it's at'! Just like the stock market, RE experiences cycles too.Having said that, this book was very educational in terms of getting me to think outside the box. I wish we had this book prior to selling our first home that we bought. Our mortgage would've been low (less than $1k) in So. CA(!) and I'm sure we would've been able to rent it out for double that! Had I read this book, we would've either rented it out...or fire the sleazy realtor that ripped us off! We learned from that mistake and by reading these types of books...hopefully we'll make better decisions in the future. For this education alone, I'd recommend you read this, take it w/ a grain of salt (in terms of striking it rich ONLY in RE) and use this info. to make the best decision for your situation.

If your motivated about real estate I would say skip the first half of this book. The first have can be compared to a long motivational speech as to why real estate is profitable. The second half of the book he gets into some deals and some very basic formulas and information. This book isn't bad if your on the fence on whether to invest, but if your fully convinced real estate is great focus your time on another book with more content.

The book is shallow. If you are new to REI then you might like it. If you have been investing for a while, it isn't worth the time.

Informational and motivation book.

A must read kind of book for ANYONE that is wanting or doing real estate investing. This book has added so much value to my life and can't wait to implement the strategies and techniques I learned from Dolf. Thanks a bunch and happy investing :)

Well, I've been a landlord since before it became fashionable in the UK, and this is probably the best book about the subject I've ever read.It would be easy to say that some of the advice given in the book "won't work" because of some specifics about the English and Welsh legal system, however, this would be missing the point...... This "advisor" is intended to focus in on one part of the overall "Rich Dad" approach to financial freedom, and give more illumination on that part.The whole approach is about concentrating on, and improving, your financial intelligence, which takes time and effort. However, reading this book will take the prospective landlord a long way.It's well worth a read, and speaking from my personal experience as a landlord, following one piece of advice in the book returned me the price of the book 6 times over within two weeks.

The book is certainly an insight into property investing, and why propertyt is a good vehicle for financial reward. After considering a few options I have decided to pursue property and have not looked back. A few colleaugues have gone down the stock market route and my investment growth far outstrips their's, with a fraction of the hassle. Yes it is risky (any investment is), but this book is a roadmap of the pitfalls. I read it again and again, it is an excellent reference book.

amazing book , however after reading most of his books i find he uses the same instances time again , e.g. wet fish supply , funeral parlor , helipad , dolf's positive approach towards property make investing life so much easier !!!havnt heart from you dolf almost a decade , we need you back in public...

Poor

Not too relevant to the UK Market but useful for beginners

good

A real-estate must read. The principles are great.

Simply one of the best property books from one of the best investor in the world!! An insight into property like no other, for all levels of investors.

Great service and value for money!

Excellent book. Well written and thinks big.

even though the book was written years ago, most of its content is still relevant today,one of the best books on property investing I have ever read.

I'll get straight to the point - if you are in property and you don't read this book then you are a fool. That's it.The long version is that he carefully explains, step by step, why and how to buy and manage property. His principles of analysis not only work, but could make you very wealthy (or save you a fortune). His guidence on property and tenant selection alone are worth the price of this book a thousand times over.This book is worth more than an hour with my accountant - a fantastic read that opened my eyes.And I thought I knew what I was doing...

So far I have only browsed through it. If Robert Kiyosaki endorses it there should be something useful to learn.

Very interesting ideas. It worth reading...

Happy customer
