Book Description
For safe long-term wealth-building, there's no better investment than real estate and if anyone is a good example of the power and wealth that real estate can build, it's Donald Trump. Trump University's Real Estate 101 combines the talent and knowledge of bestselling real estate author Gary Eldred with the prestige and name recognition of Trump to produce a one-of-a-kind real estate guide for novices and experienced investors alike. As the title implies, this guide is appropriate for investors at any level, but it's far more than a basic introduction to real estate. It offers a vital understanding of the fundamentals of real estate investing, while also surveying a full range of moneymaking techniques and tactics. It offers fresh ideas for old pros, but also lets beginners explore all the possibilities of real estate and choose the tactics that will work best for them.
Unlike other real estate guides, Trump University's Real Estate 101 doesn't just concentrate on a particular niche-like fixing and flipping or foreclosure investing-nor does it offer a simplistic overview of investing basics. Instead, this guide offers a complete range of wealth-building ideas, helps investors adapt their tactics to different areas or market conditions, and prepares them to earn a lifetime of extra income based on real estate.
Gary Eldred (Gainesville, FL) is a successful real estate investor who has served on the graduate business faculty at Stanford University and the University of Illinois. He travels around the country delivering real estate seminars and is the bestselling author of Investing in Real Estate, Fourth Edition (0-471-32339-X), The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing (0-471-64711-X), and 106 Common Mistakes Homebuyers Make (and How to Avoid Them) (0-471-12658-6), all from Wiley.
