Growing up, I was always bewildered why important financial lessons like taxes, investments, and buying a home weren’t taught in school. Ever since, I've wanted to learn and help others with their financial needs, including buying a home, which is the reason I wrote Home Buying 101: What They Don't Teach You in the Classroom. Unlike a textbook, this book about home buying is short, informal, and easy to understand. It’s the "Cliffs Notes" version, filled with information and tips I’ve learned throughout my career.

Are you interested in real estate investing but there is nothing to buy that makes sense where you live? Are you tired of seeing the amazing success of others investing in markets better suited for buy and hold real estate and wish that could be you? Do you want to take advantage of wealth building opportunities but are frustrated by the fact there just isn't any way to do that until the next market crash? Real estate investing is one of the greatest vehicles to build wealth, but it doesn't make sense in every market. Some locations provide incredible returns, while others make it almost impossible to find a single property that profits. Traditionally, investing out of state has been considered risky and unwise.

Good insights
As an aspirational first home buyer, this taught how to take the emotion out of home buying and think about what really matters.
Even though I am an Australian I found most of the content relevant, other than some specific terminologies.

Great Content!
Some great concepts and explanations. And some humour to boot! While I’m not in the US, I still got great value out of this as the concepts are pretty much the same, just have different names. There is some US specific terms, rules and regulations, but we have very similar ones here in Australia. Great Job! It left me wanting more.
