1: quick delivery
ordered on Aug 28 night with standard shipping fee,as I thought it was not worth to pay premium shipping fee as Labor day was coming. books were actually sent out on Sep 1 and received on Sep 4.

2: Worth the money
This book was required for my RE class at school, so I had to buy it. But unlike many college text books, which will sit on the shelf unused 90% of the time, this one actually proved to be very, very useful. It covers financial and some legal aspects of all major categories of real estate. It helps to be familiar with DCF, TVM and other basic accounting concepts before starting this book.

3: aspects of professional investment
For serious investors pondering whether to indulge in real estate, this book provides an indepth look at the factors you should be aware of. It explains the main types of real estate - residential, commercial, industrial. Each has its quirks, with its own pricing, investment history and tax considerations.
For example, there is consideration of foreclosed homes. Giving an analysis of the costs of buying this REO from a bank and then fixing it up for resale. The different types of acquisition fees you are likely to encounter are given. Along related lines, there is a study of a personal residence. Should you rent or own this? The conclusions can and will vary with market conditions and geography. Unlike what a realtor might tell you, the book has no automatic bias towards owning a home.
On a larger scale, the book tells how to evaluate many types of property for income streams. Along with possible financial leverages schemes, to bootstrap your portfolio.
