Ron's Review The book is excellent, and provides some powerful insight to Pre-foreclosure investing. Alexis is straight forward and to the point on this subject. Alexis is also extremely passionate about what she does, and very motivational. I anticipate reaping great rewards from the techniques she has provided in her book, and I don't plan on "selling my soul" doing so. Thanks Alexis!
Great intro book This is a great book for people starting in the foreclosure business. It gives the basics and then gives Foreclosures.com's spin on how they do business. I would have liked to see more on how you can use the website to start your business, but I guess that is covered when you join. Good starter book.
Look no further, you found the ONLY real book on foreclosures This is the real deal. The best book on pre-foreclosure investing out there. And the free bonus offer included inside is huge. I highly recommend this to anyone interesting in buying pre-foreclosures. Whether just one house, or many, this is your first step in the right direction to successful wholesale buying.
Good Information -- Well Worth Buying This is very much a beginner's book, so if that's you, you might want to consider buying it. Exceptionally important (to me) is the fact that the author takes the time to discuss the psychology of working with pre-foreclosure sellers and the importance of empathy and ethics in putting deals together.
Ms. McGee goes over all of the basics from locating properties to financing alternatives. One thing that's comforting is the fact that the author is an experinced industry insider with years of knowlege and experience in the field. A person like that is sure to have some valuable nuggets to pass on, which she does in an easy to understand style.
In the spirit of full disclosure, I should say that I am an attorney, real estate broker, investor, trainer, and author of another unique and highly readable book on real estate investing that can also be found here on Amazon -- The WealthLoop Series Beginner's Guide to Building Wealth Buying Houses: The Foolproof Roadmap to Real Estate Riches Without the Risks and Hassles of Landlording. Unlike many real estate investing books, it is written to be a genuine "How To" book that "takes you by the hand" and walks you through a step-by-step process for getting started in real estate investing -- investors across the country are giving it rave reviews. The book also includes sample leases, forms, and checklists, so that you can actually go out and implement the investing strategy it teaches as soon as you're done reading.

If you're new to pre-forclosure investing, I don't think you'll go wrong buying Ms. McGee's book.
Ok for basic information-may not work in this market It is a good book for novice investors to review their basic knowledge on forclosures. It looks like this book was written a while back and then briefly updated. Or maybe it is good in the midwest and lower priced housing markets. Here in California almost all of the defaults have higher loan balances than equity. also homes are on the market so long that the length of time to resell might wipe out the $20,000-$30,000 projected profit.
