The real estate reality shows have taken television by storm. But, how realistic is it to believe that you can either remodel your own home or buy one that needs repair, make those repairs and then sell it for a large profit? Scott Frank and Andy Heller, co authors of Buy Even Lower say that this premise is misleading at best. They say that the programs are styled for entertainment purposes and do not always portray the risk, time, stress, headaches and failures, too, of house flipping.

They point out that house-flipping can be extremely time consuming, costs for repairs and remodeling can break the budget, the work is extremely stressful, the chance is that you might end up with an property that is very difficult to sell, and that unexpected costs could ruin your profits. Reading Buy Even Lower will give you Frand and Heller’s Six Golden Keys to successful house flipping.

If you are at all interested in the field of real estate, these two books are indispensable resources to learning and educating yourself in advance of any problems. They are written by experts in the field of real estate who want to make the field an inviting and profitable way of earning a living.
