Looking for a good book on investing in apartment building?

Troy, NY · Member since 2019 · 75 posts · 25 votes

Hello, I have read many of the basic books on real estate investing, but I am looking for a book that goes deep into investing in multi family apartment buildings? Larger than 4 units but not a good about large 50+ unit buildings. Thanks for reading! I am looking forward to your responses,

Highly recommend "Best Ever Real Estate Syndication Book" by Joe Fairless. Our business model almost follows that book step by step, very helpful.

Best of Luck

    Hi Anthony,

    If you want something that's not a pie in the sky click bait title book maybe think about

    Multifamily Housing: A Comprehensive Guide for Investors, Developers, Apartment Professionals, Suppliers and Students.

    It's by the National Apartment Association, and while not an investment advisory hoopla rah rah type book, it does provide a lot of insight into the industry.

    Also, it's not cheap. 

    Here's a link with a Peek Preview feature to see if it's something you might be interested in: https://www.amazon.com/Multifamily-Housing-Comprehensive-Developers-Professionals-ebook/dp/B01HDX2TGY

    Good Luck!

    @Anthony Zotto books are critical, but don't get stuck reading. You have to take action at some point and implement what you've learned. Lots of people get stuck in this phase. Let me know if I can help with anything!

    @Lucas Miller thanks! And great point, one of the most important things I hear about is taking action. I currently own a duplex but am trying to grown exponentially. I am waiting to graduate college this May and show more income to qualify for financing, I will definitely reach out in the future!
