Editorial Reviews

Review

"There are plenty of books out there aimed at providing the motivation to want to buy rental properties, but there are very few books that provide a detailed, step-by-step framework for accomplishing real estate success. Brandon Turner's The Book on Rental Property Investing does that, and does it in a way that puts financial freedom through real estate within reach of anyone who wants it." --J. Scott, Author of The Book on Flipping Houses --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Good principles, but sometimes outdated

Good principles, but sometimes outdated
Good for a high level overview of concepts. But in some portions, this seems like it was written from the perspective of someone who had success back in the good old days... like when you could get a new roof for $5k and all new appliances for $1k. Your investment strategy will need to be based on today's realities, not costs from years ago.

Looking to invest in real estate for the first time. This book was very helpful in helping to understand all the processes and steps (there are many) to be aware, as well as providing good practical suggestions on what to look for in a property and how to analyze a potential investment. Would highly recommend.

If you are a beginner, this book will help. The only part that I didn’t like was something that many readers like me noticed: it’s very annoying that he mentions his podcast hundreds of times (It’s like watching a movie with commercials). Besides that is a good book for beginners. Some information is common sense but it also has good content.

My husband recently retired from the military and we've been discussing investing in rental properties now that he has a bit more time. We've put it off over the past year because it seems overwhelming to even get started.

As I read through this book, the questions I had about how to even get started were answered clearly, and with facts and anecdotal evidence. I love how Brandon walks you through every step of the rental property process from how to analyze a rental property (best chapter I read on this topic ever- no detail is left out!) to how to find one when you are ready to buy.

My only regret is that I didn't read this book through the first time with a pen and paper in hand. I'm now going back through it a second time making notes and beginning to outline a plan for my own investment plans.

Brandon simplifies the entire process and while he clearly states this is not a get rich quick book (thank goodness- there are enough of those these days) he does explain how investing in rental properties can help build wealth, allow you to eventually quit your day job, or just add to your investment portfolio.

This book is easy to read and filled with funny stories and real life examples from Brandon's experiences. I wouldn't have imagined a book on investing could be informative and entertaining, but this one is.

I've been doing a lot of research over the past year and this book is by far the most comprehensive, well written book on rental properties I've read.

Highly recommend!

I'm not sure why there are negative reviews of this book. I think most people want a step by step, hand holding, you can do this sweetheart book. This book does tell you how to invest in real estate step by step, but every country and even states/province's have different rules and regulations. Brandon does say that you should do your research, and if you arent willing to do that then real estate investing is not for you. Top notch book!!!! I live in canada and found a wealth of information that was relatable in my country. Thanks Brandon for your wisdom and your podcast. PS. You dont have to buy this book, all the same info is in his podcast which is free!!!!
