Description

Author Mitch Stephen has been a self-employed, creative real estate investor for over 20 years. He bought and sold well over 1,000 houses in his hometown and specializes in “The Art of Owner Financing.” He has written two other books centered on his experience in real estate… MY LIFE & 1,000 HOUSES: Failing Forward to Financial Freedom MY LIFE & 1,000 HOUSES: 200+ Ways to Find Bargain Properties This book, MY LIFE & 1,000 HOUSES: The Art of Owner Financing, is an insider’s look at a very powerful strategy for building wealth quickly. In this book you’re going to learn… · How to get paid to build your cash flow. · How to generate cash flow without being a landlord. · How to get paid six ways on your deals. · How to recognize what properties are good to owner finance. · How to make money on the properties that aren’t good to owner finance. · How to find private money for your deals. · How to sell notes with little to no discount. …and much, much more! Tired of being a landlord? Are you tired of all the late night phone calls about leaking toilets, busted hot water heaters, broken air conditioners, and on and on and on? If so, this book is a must read! For years the gurus of the day have been selling us the “Buy & Hold” myth. Most landlords have fooled themselves into thinking they’re making money. Year after year would-be-retirees have to postpone their retirement because the rental income they calculated on paper never makes it to their tax return. Mitch can show you exactly why this is happening and how to stop it from happening by using a strategy that is less known and grossly misunderstood. The owner financing strategy changes everything! Change your property’s value. Change your community for the better. Change your buyer’s life, and change your personal financial situation in the process. All kinds of doors open when we stop using broken down traditional techniques and start thinking outside the box. And best of all, 90% of the deals are done with none of your own money! The strategies in this book are mind-blowing! Mitch believes that real estate investing is a tremendous strategy for acquiring wealth. He has helped new investors find their place; He has helped veteran investors re-invent themselves by BECOMING THE BANK!

  • Game Changer
This book gave me a transformative experience. After reading easy to read book about seller's financing, my mindset completely shifted my perspective on real estate and my initial desire to become a landlord. Instead of focusing on property ownership for profit, I now feel inspired to help people, particularly those in low-income communities achieve the American Dream of home ownership. I loved the practical strategies to assist people in overcoming these obstacles, making home ownership a reality for more families. The impact this book has had on me is profound, and I now feel compelled to contribute to making a difference in the lives of those who desire homeownership. The money will follow! I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in real estate, finance, or simply wanting to make a positive impact on their community. ... show more

This book was amazing! I have never read a book on real estate quite like this one. It kept things simple and to the point throughout the whole book. I am new to real estate investing and it just makes perfect sense to want to sell a house to someone instead of becoming a landlord I'm having to deal with all the tenant issues that inevitably come up day to day. Thanks Mitch for all the great information. ... show more

  • Excellent book loaded with good information.
To much information to retain reading only once, so you might want to read it again. Good look inside the unbeaten path of real estate investing, information laid out in a sensible order written by an interesting character. Man has written several books and of the four that I have read, none have been dull. Fascinating stuff in my opinion. Thank you, Sir ! ... show more

  • Easy read!
I really like how the process was broken down, and various examples given. I just wanted to unload a rental I can't sell, but now I see potential in doing more and more deals. I didn't give it 5 stars because it didn't answer the 1 question I still have...WHO do we sell this note to?

  • Shortcut Your Learning Curve into Real Estate Investing
This is a fantastic read full of information about how Mitch was able to figure out how to become a highly successful real estate investor. I takes you through his trials, tribulation, and eventually success! Do yourself a favor and drop a few bucks on this book, believe me, it's a bargain considering the information he shares. I have read all 3 of his books and they have become a permanent fixture in my REI library, that I refer to over and over again. Thanks for sharing Mitch! ... show more

This is a practical down to earth real estate investing book. I finished it in one day. that's how good it is. I had taken a few courses on real estate investing and learned great strategies until I discovered the owner financing side of real estate and wanted to learn more. I'm glad I picked up this book. Mitch Stevens gives real life experiences and examples of his own deals that he's done and everything you need to know to do your own, without the fluff or BS. This is A great book to have in your toolkit. I will use this as a reference for my ongoing deals. ... show more

  • You will not be disappointed.
Wow, simply wow. I have read Mitch's other two books. When he wrote a third book, I wondered what else can be said. This effort on his part proved that no matter what you know, you always have more to learn. Mitch's writing style is so down to earth that you learn things about this business without realizing it at the time. I learned several new ideas from this book. I tried the landlord route for a while and had decided to jump out of the real estate business for ever. Then I found his first book and my interest was piqued once again. Walking out of closing that will provide a residence to rent to someone else and walking out of a closing that will just pay you with no landlord worries can not even be compared. I recently had that experience. I owner financed the sell of a home and I followed Mitch's guidance straight through. This is whole idea is simply do it once, get the high, and then do it over and over and over again. Don't hesitate, buy Mitch's book. Get this one now and then order the other two also. You will not be disappointed. ... show more
