Robert Kiyosaki makes for some great reading if your considering real estate investment - Rich Dad Poor Dad I enjoyed although it's been a while since I have read these books I will make the time to breeze through them again one day very soon. Dolf De Roos has at least one book I have read as part of the Rich Dad series that is primarily aimed at the real estate investor, Dolf has an amazing story and I find Real Estate riches to be an inspiration when ever I read it. I would credit his book for helping me along the way to a number of very profitable real estate transactions over the last few years. Dolf lays down a number of strategies and proves that in real estate there is more than 1 way to turn a profit. Of course these a re just 2 of many good reads when it comes to real estate investment & trading. Jan Somers is another good read and I will cover her books in a future post!
