This is where you start making building your path to extra income each month and putting that money aside for retirement one day. 

A successful investor was not born with a lot of luck on their side. They didn't wake up knowing how to get rich in real estate. They made their wealth because they knew all the right steps to take. They learned how to manage their finances, how to separate the facts from the myths in the industry, how to negotiate the best deals based on the knowledge they had, how to determine if a property was a wise investment decision, and more. Every successful real estate mogul once started where you are right now, and if they can do it, what's holding you back? 

But I DON'T have enough money to get started! Well, guess what? You DON'T need it! You don't need a lot of money in the bank to become a real estate investor. You just need to know what to do and how to do it right. That's what this book aims to show you. That you don't need to be rich to start building your wealth. Not having enough to get started shouldn't be the reason that holds you back. It should be the reason why you want to start. It's time to get out of that cycle of never having enough money once and for all, and passive income streams like real estate investments are the way to do it.

Chapter 1: What is the Real Estate Business?

The moment you purchase your first home. That's the moment you set foot into the real estate world at last. Real estate investing can be a great financial decision if you know what you're doing. This form of investing can generate an ongoing income passively without having to leave your full-time job or sacrifice too much of your time. In the long-term, if the value of the property increases, it can turn out to be one of the best investment decisions that you've made. Many have used this option as a stepping stone towards generating wealth over time, and that's what you're about to learn how to do right now. The question is, are you ready to make the leap into investing in this market?

There's a huge chunk of change that is going to be involved upfront, and it could be a while before you see any return on your investment. Not to mention that before you can make that admittedly expensive purchase, your finances need to be in order. That's because whether you've bought that property to flip it or live in it, you're the one who is going to be responsible for the taxes and utilities related to that property. There are the ongoing maintenance costs that you need to account for, too, and if you are putting the property up for rent, there will be gaps between income when you're in the midst of changing tenants. Owning a piece of real estate is exciting, and as an investment strategy, it can be a decision that turns out to be both lucrative and satisfying.
