Most Technical Sources

[Tariq A.]

Hi guys, good to be here. I am currently looking at getting involved in REI and looked on the forum and elsewhere for good books to get started. I saw that several people recommended "Millionaire Real Estate Investor" by Keller, so I ordered the book off Amazon. As I started reading, it read like a self-help book, not a technical source on real estate investment. Almost half-way through, I couldn't take it anymore and returned the book. I soon noticed by reading amazon reviews and looking at other sources that there is a plethora of "fluff" books out there. I'm looking for a book that gives examples of investments, explains things like how brick vs another material is sturdier, etc - the real technicals with no fluff. Anyone have any recommendations? I'm looking at John T Reed's books and they seem to be up that alley but he doesn't have his books in e-format (I like my kindle).

Thanks
