Reseña del libro "Why and Why Not to Invest in Real Estate: How to get rich for real (en Inglés)"
Wondering where you should put your money after being disappointed with the performance of all your other investments? Look no further than real estate, still the single most dependable investment you can find. In many ways, real estate is unique. You can rent it to third parties who help you pay off your mortgage.

When your city or your neighbors build new infrastructure and structures around your property, it's goes up in value without you having done a thing. These are just a few of real estate's unusual characteristics. Another aspect to like about this industry is that business models built around real property are not as complex as, say, running Apple or Facebook let alone Alphabet. It's basically a business model for dummies.

It's a buy and hold strategy for the most part, not buy and flip. Bruce M Firestone, PhD, brings his own unique flavor to this business by explaining how you can increase revenues in both residential and commercial real estate through a process he calls "animation."
