I’m always banging on about how important it is to educate and empower yourself with knowledge, but there are so many books on the topic of real estate investing that it can all get a bit confusing, eh? Some are good, some great, and well, some…let’s just call them ‘arm chair experts’ who shouldn’t have a publishing deal.
Well, to help you sift through the good from the bad, here are my top 2 for you to start with.
If you want to understand the mechanics, value of land, the supply/demand concept, population, infrastructure, economy, and also re-gentrification of areas, then these two are your go to’s.
One hundred Years of Land Values in Chicago
The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking
These two books are certainly not for the faint hearted at around 500 pages each, but they’re chock-a-block full of all the need to knows, eye openers and everything in between. Get stuck in!
