Product Description

Quit your day job!

Make a million in real estate!

It's easier than you think!

A few years ago, Matthew Martinez was a lot like you - he worked hard to make as big a salary as he could. But it wasn't enough. He worked by the clock, and yearned to be his own boss. With a small amount of savings, he acquired his first rental property. Two years later, he was making more from his rentals than he was working 9 to 5, so he quit his day job to oversee his real estate investments. Today, he enjoys a multi-million-dollar collection of income-producing properties--and he's ready to share his money-making strategies so you can begin your own journey to career and financial independence.

you Must read Matt's book, 2008-08-14
I just finished reading your book. Excellent. The best one I've read yet. It explains the real, traditional way to buy properties.

A little outdated., 2008-08-05
The book gave his account of how he continually acquired real estate properties and became a very successful real estate investor. Unfortunately, his method is a little outdated. Many of the loan programs he discusses are no longer available due to the current mortgage crisis. It's now nearly impossible to acquire a investment property with only 10% down and most people no longer have the equity in their homes to do what he did in 2002.
He does make some very good points about skipping the properties that don't produce monthly income and I like his strategies to avoid equity-only investing. It's proven to be very good advice since the book was published.
Overall, I'd recommend it as a read to beginner investors but in today's market, the title just won't hold up.

Solid, realistic, detailed information...no fluff!, 2008-08-05
I really enjoyed this book. I've read several like it and most are filled with essentially the same point worded differently again and again. This book was not like that at all. Instead, it is a comprehensive, detailed read on all aspects of finding, purchasing and (most importantly) RUNNING a rental business. The author does not pull any punches and delivers clear suggestions, pertinent examples, and ultimately, a well structured missive that should be required reading for anyone looking to learn more about getting into the rental real estate market. Highly recommended.

This book is the real deal, 2008-08-05
As a bookauthor and investor I highly recommend anyone getting involved in the real estate arena to read Matt's books.

I have personally known the author for many years and I can tell you that there are few top notch investors like him out there that have his knowledge and financial saviness at the time of purchasing and managing multifamily units. We all have a lot to learn from him.

In "2 Years to a Million in Real Estate", I enjoyed reading his stories and the way he positively handled difficult situations with tenants.

It's about time, less yak more substance. , 2008-07-24
I have been a realtor since 1999 and this is the first book I've read about RE investing that gets to the point. Many other investors like to talk about themselves, which I could care less about. Matthew Martinez gets to the point on how to invest in real estate. By the way he does respond to email, how is that for service. Great book Matthew.
