Trite and useless

Trite and useless. Low information to noise ratio. No organization at all. Don't even bother.

Get this if you are overwhelmed!

Absolutely loved this audiobook! I’m currently in the process of buying my first home and was feeling very overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start. This audiobook had the perfect amount of cliff note information to send me on my path to success. This is a short audiobook tho! It also has a nice section at the end to give you definitions and explanations of all traps you should avoid when buying your first home.

Great work!

Nice presentation of the intricate details of flipping land in any piece of the financial cycle, more alternatives on the most proficient method to fund your flips, and an emphasis on bigger remodel ventures not recently talked about.

it's convenient.

It was mentioned in the audiobook that a high percentage of houses bought were through internet. How convenient for the buyer of the house!

The book mentions about the home buyer guides that will help you find the right home for sale, make the right bid, and work with the right agent.

It's the best!

The best home buyer guides don’t offer just high- level suggestions for prospective homeowners. Rather they impart meticulous advice that can help them. Very convenient, isn’t it?

How informative can this be!

Real estate consultants may be called in for inquiries. It can be a combination of straight facts and real-life stories about common traps and pitfalls and how to avoid them.

Resourceful methods.

When you begin researching all the different loan options available to make that home a reality, listen to the author guidelines as he talks about the pros and cons on that. How resourceful!
