Little do I know that most of the content was cited from a book widely sold on Amazon.com. Amazon of all places only if we could sell our homes there! Well, the book was called “FLIP: How to find, fix, and sell houses for profit.” While I like the notion of flipping homes I do have to say it is a great risk. After all who has 20k laying around to invest in a venture? You would think that they would sell the book in hard back considering it’s a whopping 14 dollars. While the book mostly got great reviews there were a few reviews that were bad here and there. One major complaint was that the book was not very well written. One user “Louis Bailey” stated that the text contained way too much random anecdotes and stupid analogies. Another user “M. P. Conte” stated that the book failed to mention information on capital gains tax and the impact on profit. While these two statements sound bad, all is not lost. For instance the same users that gave less stars also stated that the book was really great in general, and that they felt they could flip a home after reading the book. While its subjective to believe everything reviewers say, with 63 five star reviews its hard to not believe them.
If you’re not into reading books, there are always classes you can take. A Virginia Real Estate School learning course can run you as little as $179 dollars which is a great bang for your buck. After you pass the exam you will still have to keep updated with your information right? For as little as $189 varealityschool.com offers post license courses. Also don’t forget that fortunebuilders reviews offer seminars as reviewed on Squidoo click here
