The abandoned property investor's kit : find the owner, buy low (with no competition!), and sell for big profits

For a novice real estate investor this book is a dream come true. If you're more experienced, and coming to abandoned property real estate investing from another niche, the first thing you'll notice is the lack of competition. Instead of butting heads with every other investor in America hoping to make a buck, you're all alone to cherry pick the very best investment opportunities out there. Reggie Brooks knows real estate investing, and he teaches you every step of the abandoned property process. He teaches you step-by-step how to find these properties -- and they're EVERYWHERE -- how to track down the owners using some really cool strategies, how to negotiate a winning deal that's good for you and the homeowner, and then exactly what to do with the property once you have it. If you're used to real estate investing books that grab your attention with big promises and a slick title only to head you down a slippery slope towards an upsell or stunning disappointment, don't worry. Reggie Brooks goes out of his way to not only deliver the goods, but he shows you how to take advantage of government programs and other wealth-building opportunities. The best part of this book? Mr. Brooks is like a modern day sage, because there are hundreds of thousands of foreclosures hitting the market right now and the number is only going to get bigger as the market bounces its way to the bottom. The foreclosure market is feeding the abandoned property market so there are more golden opportunities to build sustainable wealth than ever before. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this book. It works -- and it delivers with huge deposits into your bank account. It's a tremendous resource in any economy, but this real estate investing book is better than any government bailout!
