A good book on INVESTING in REAL ESTATE for beginners?
I am a novice investor thinking about buying a small 2 family property as an investment. Can you recommend a good book for someone like me who is just starting out in real estate investing?
thanks
p.s. please mention your background so I know your level of experience (i.e. are you a landlord, real estate agent, investor etc. and how long have you been doing that. thanks again )

I have no background in real estate, but I’m familiar with books published by For Dummies. This is a publishing company which contracts with writers who are both experts in their field and have the ability to put concepts in easy to understand prose for people who are new to a field.
The most it will cost you is a trip to your local library.
