Manny Khoshbin's Contrarian PlayBook: How to Build Your $100 Million Real Estate Portfolio From the Ground Up Paperback – December 14, 2011

The biggest takeaway I had from this book is Manny’s advice to keep moving and not stay complacent. Don’t settle for mild success and hold your properties too long. Sell them and move on to the next deal. Never stop working and hustling to find the next deal. Sitting on a few properties will cap your wealth. I felt like the entire book was written for me. Manny is great at talking directly to you in a simple way that anyone can relate. Excellent book. I wish I had read this 5 years ago.

Just finished reading Contrarian Playbook - true to its title, this book gives you a proven layout, or starting point, on real estate investing. Covers all the major classes of real estate in a very straight forward approach. It also gives the reader a good guideline to follow on due diligence for different property classes. Great read!0 replies 0 retweets 0 likes

You will love this book. Great book

The book is interesting to read and to understand how real estate investors make their Money. The book is based on the contrarian style of managing real estate which is rather interesting, how can you still make money when the economy is doing bad and your competitors are as well?Note: don't expect to be able to build a real estate empire worth 100 million dollars but expect to know how he did it and find your own strategies that work for you.Note 2: the book is not written in a way a professional writer would recommend or write himself but rather in a way a non professional writer would do it, which makes it easy to understand and to read but not as exciting as those bestseller novels.Anyway, I think Mr. Koshbin did a good job at making his book motivational for others as well as making it instructrice and explanatory.For this price you can't be unhappy to get it, so if the subject interests you, get the book.

This book is helpful in providing an approach to growing a real estate portfolio and gets into the weeds a bit on how to know when to buy and sell as well as where to start and how to heat it up. Great insight from someone actually doing it.

Manny's book is the true meaning of the American Dream. This guy started against all the odds and became a huge success. His book is a quick easy read and he educates from a easy to understand approach to Real Estate. I really enjoyed this book. He uses several personal stories and experiences to highlight his books important message. You will feel like you know him when you are done. I hope he writes another one with a more technical side soon as well. Maybe a part two with more advanced principles? Thanks again for the wonderful read Manny!

I'm a real estate broker. This is a pretty solid book for everyone looking to buy real estate or get involved in the game.It's crazy how many people still cant distinguish a liability from an asset. This book is filled with little tips Manny uses to grow his real estate empire. Some of the biggest takeaways are 1.) market timing, 2.) adding upside, and 3.) creating valueAlthough this book might be pretty basic for a seasoned agent, I highly recommend everyone to read this prior to purchasing a home/ real estate.

Don't write too many reviews but I have seen Manny in his Youtube videos and at first, thought was going to be the same pitch of someone preaching Real Estate with a flashy car. But after watching numerous videos and seeing he knew what he was talking about and explained commercial investment correctly that I bought his book. Being in Houston I know the deal he mentions that he made money on. I have learned a lot from this book and helped me realize I was not looking at office buildings the way he is and that is why he has made so much money from them. I dumped all my SFR and focusing on being a contrarian. I have always gone against the masses and Manny's book helped me to see what new market I should focus on. Way to go Manny. Love to see someone go from nothing to multi-millionaire.
