Increases Confidence
I know I probably should wait until I finished the book before I write a review, but I have gotten my money's worth already. I'm purchasing my first investment property and have tons of questions. As I read this book the cloud of uncertainty continues to clear and my confidence is increasing substantially. Knowledge is power and this book provides excellent information in an easy to read format. Plus it came with a CD of the forms you will need as a landlord. This was a plus because other books required an additional purchase from their website and the files are not even in common software format such as Microsoft Word. You also get additional access to other forms on the Socrates website with purchase of this book. Great on to add to the collection.

The Compete Landlording Handbook
I'm a new landlord and this book has invaluable information for me. I can understand in easy terms what I've gotten myself into and also use it as a reference for the experiences to come. It would be a useful guide for new, existing and future landlords.

Everything I needed to know in one volume!
I'll admit it. I was afraid to be a landlord, but this book changed my mind.

This book has everything I needed to know organized in an easy-to-understand format. The process of buying property isn't difficult, and this book spells out every single step.

Don't buy your first property without it!
