Summary: Great insights from the inside
Comment: Hello, my name is Scott and I really like this book. I am one who is tired of the thought of working hard for money all my life. So I have been studying ways to get ahead financially in a short period of time. I have read a few books on real-estate and flipping properties, most of them have a lot of good advice, but sometimes you want to see what they're talking about in a picture or two. "Buying For Profit" does just that. It not only has a lot of good advice, but pictures to see just what they're talking about. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted to get started on the subject of flipping homes.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good book
Comment: Purchased the book because of the ideas it had for updating a dated home.
Fit our needs and we got several ideas from it that we have used.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good reference book, but not very applicable at the moment
Comment: This book was not very good. It was boring.. plain and simple. The only reason I rated this book with 2 stars is because it seems that it will come in handy for the future. The book does not really mention to much about flipping homes, but more about repairs. It goes into light detail about how to make repairs and installations. It should come in handy when I'm actually in the midst of a project. But as for research about the housing market and profitable ways to flip a house, forget about it. It list a ton of measurements and numbers that no one could possibly remember. The book is also poorly written so its hard to hold your interest and keep on reading.
Customer Rating:
Summary: It's a clear blueprint to financial success and you can't fail with step-by-step directions and color-coded sidebars of tips.
Comment: No matter when you plan to sell your home, there are remodeling and home improvement projects which can enhance its value, and TLC's 'Property Ladder' show offers up case histories of such improvements, detailing why they boosted sales. From frown molding and granite kitchen counters to spacious-seeming rooms, chapters cover the most cost-effective, high-profit remodel jobs, pros and cons, and when to choose a pro over doing it yourself. It's a clear blueprint to financial success and you can't fail with step-by-step directions and color-coded sidebars of tips.
