A very inspirational story. Good for stock investors perhaps looking to venture into real estate, or the other way around.
In general, the time period portrayed in the book (late 1990's - early 2000's) was fairly unusual in that stocks performed much worse than real estate, and both investment vehicles showed abnormal volatility. Although it is a good story, I believe it is unlikely to achieve similar results in future time periods.
The one big takeaway was that according to the author, there are 2 types of appreciation in real estate. One is "sit bank and do nothing" caused by general inflation, and one is actively improving your property by sorting out problems and raising rents. Such is not the case in passive stock investing.
A great read, recommended! | | |  | MOTIVATING! Nov 15, 2006 |
This is a motivating book about how a Wall Street lover moved to become a real estate guru. This is not a bad read and should be in anyone's library. Please note one key component is his capital, he had something to start with. If you have nothing to start with, you might want to look at asset buildling slowly or partnering up.

The book was descent, far from the best book I've read on the subject of real estate investing. However, the author does an excellent job in sharing the tactics that he used to purchase commercial property by using as much leverage as possible,with a partner. I highly recommend this book and "2 Years to a Million in Real Estate by Matthew A. Martinez. A MUCH better read and contains allot more information on the same type of concepts

I read this book a few times and have used the principles outlined to do a couple of deals myself. Similar to the author I used the equity in my house to purchase 2 apartment buildings and now have more equity in those two buildings than I can believe. This is the book that pushed me to do it and I would highly recommend reading it!
I was on the fence about using a credit line to invest in the stock market or real estate, boy am I happy I read this book. It was just what I needed at the right time and helped me realize the importance of cash flow, leverage and principal pay down.

| First, the title must just be for eye-catching purposes, because no matter how you value his portfolio, he made nowhere close to a 20,000% return on his initial investment. And be forwarned, when he says its a story '... from Wall Street to Real Estate...' he means it. 40 pages of this 124 page book are about his stockbroking career. Having said that, it is a great book about what to look for, even though he himself even says it will probably be next to impossible to find these type of returns in todays market, and how he did it. | | | Write your own review about A 20,000% Gain in Real Estate: A True Story About the Ups And Downs from Wall Street to Real Estate Leading Up to Phenomenal Returns
