Customer Rating:      Summary: My opinion Comment: I have read all of Dave Lindahl's books. I also bought his course. Of all the so called "Guru's" out there, I find him to be the best! Commercial properties are for "Investor's", Residential properties are for "Home Owners". His book is very refreshing & covers the basics & beyond. I have been a Broker for 28 years, mainly Land & Commercial Mortgages. I highly recommend his material.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Decent Comment: This book isn't actually written by Donald Trump, but that doesn't mean it's not any good. I haven't read the book cover to cover yet but I have flipped through and read about 50% I would say and I am satisfied with the product for the price.
Customer Rating:      Summary: GREAT BOOK! Comment: This is a must read for all real estate investors. I couldn't put it down.
Customer Rating:      Summary: It's not another guru fluff book; it has real meat. Comment: This book is written by David Lindahl with small commentaries by Donald Trump sprinkled through it. The book is loaded with real meat for the avid real estate investor who wants to get started in commercial real estate investing. It's not quite a full-blown step-by-step "how to be a commercial real estate investor" as explained in
Commercial Real Estate Investing For Dummies (For Dummies (Business & Personal Finance)) (which is my number 1 favorite commercial real estate starter book -- it's almost a complete business plan), but David Lindahl comes very close to it.
My only real complaint is Lindahl's insistence on letting the real estate broker take both sides of the commission, even when the broker hasn't earned it. If I had to find the property (by searching the Multiple Listing Service or other internet websites *and* I do all of the upfront financial analysis), then I want half of the total commission as a seller price concession. If the broker brought it to me as his own private unadvertised pocket listing *and* he has already done the financial analysis for me, then he has earned both sides of the commission.
As a new commercial real estate investor, this book is an excellent addition to my library. Keep a yellow highlighter handy when you read it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Commercial Real Estate Investing 101 Comment: This book is a very easy read, in simple well laid out format. Perfect for a person just starting out in the Real Estate investing business. I especially liked all the formulas for determining if a deal is right for the investor to spend more time on.
