4 out of 5 stars A Good First Book   February 7, 2002
First of all the author and publisher could have done a better job in checking the book for typographical errors. That being said, on to the book.

The information contained is very useful and basic. I like all the website listings and telephone numbers. The book is not complicated to read in one sitting (15 - 20 minutes). You will gain a lot of information if you are just beginning to explore this subject. I wished that the author had expounded more on research information like liens and other encumbrances and how these can potentially affect the bidder.

I originally borrowed this book from the library. But since I thought it was a good reference, I decided to buy it. It is always good to go over sections of the book from time to time.


5 out of 5 stars A start in real estate investing w/o the expense   June 11, 2001
I have read alot of books about real estate and had to read between the lines to get to the real information. This book although small gets to the information without the hype that fills up so many books. I would recommend this book to everyone beacause of the rich information that it contains and for the money it's cheap compared to the other real estate books that are filled with nonsense.

2 out of 5 stars Vague   August 24, 2000
I was expecting more information than this book offered. It did contain some basic generic information, but bottom line was go and find out how to take advantage of foreclosures in your area by yourself. The entire book took an hour to read.


3 out of 5 stars Good info, but very little of it.   June 10, 2000
  42 out of 43 found this review helpful

This book is only 92 pages long, and it has only few sentences per page. It really is no more than an informative, but skimpy brochure, and it takes about 10 to 15 minutes (tops) to read. Basicaly, the only information included is a very general definition of the types of foreclosure auctions you are likely to come across, and a list of addresses and web pages of institutions which might have forclosures available for sale. It is a great starting point, but don't expect any tips, tricks or advice, nor any information beyond the barest of minimum. It would be an OK place to start for someone who has no prior information whatsoever about forclosures, but I feel that the price of the book doesn't reflect the amount of info you get. Buy this book only if you can't find anything else.
