Find out why it's easier to purchase commercial real estate than residential real estate, how to find and analyze commercial real estate, learn about common ploys real estate agents and sellers use to sell commercial real estate, common tricks of the trade commercial real estate brokers and lenders don't want you to know about and the 10 Steps to becoming a successful real estate developer.

 All cover, no substance... ( kylekmd )
A friend gave me this book to read. Now that I think of it, he probably just wanted to get rid of it.
At best, it's a cursory review of trivial commercial real estate investment strategies--none of which are particularly creative or new. At worst, it's a fashion magazine with a somewhat attractive cover girl. Sorry. Big thumbs down.
Not everyone is meant to be an author.

 The "Best" is a bit of a stretch
I have read several investment books this summer. This book had lot of grammatical errors but did reveal a real life view of the author's success. Unfortunately, besides the apartment condo conversion there was not a lot of more specific examples or experiences. I was expecting to hear a little about shopping centers, office space among other things. The "Best" is a bit exaggerated to say the least.

 AWESOME- One smart chick
What an easy read, couldn't put the book down. This is no dumb blond. She is honest with what she says, and thorough with the info. best of all as i said an easy read, while being technical. This woman is gifted. I am inspired and excited knowing that commercial real estate takes work, but the returns justify the amount of work involved. This book needs to be read and then read again and work with it... develop an outline for your self with her instructions, and get to work..... and forget luck, need luck resort back to her book.... after all luck is only the end result of good preparation and hard work....

 The title says it all, if you believe those sorts of things ( ladyeagle1 )
It all became clear to me once I tripped over the twentieth punctuation or grammatical error. What publisher would let this book be sold without a decent proofreader? Ahh, self-published. Grammatical errors bother me more than they should, but what does it communicate about the content? The author has made millions in three short years, and has decided that although she is still learning, this is the best time to write a book for beginners. She also started her own TV show or infomercial (it's not completely clear), seminars, and offers herself as a mentor! Oh, and there's a blog here on Amazon.
I'm sure she is getting very wealthy. The hubris involved in naming this book, as well as the seminars and mentoring, is staggering. I'm new enough to this that I can't evaluate the content. But I know I can't completely count on it. Just look at that punctuation!

Great guidance for making the move from residential to commercial
I agree with the book's title, and found it to be just right for anyone who, like me, is perched on the brink of jumping from residential to commercial investment properties. One of the most important things I learned from the book is how to avoid wasting money and time during the search phase. Monica has given me the knowledge and courage to make the leap into new geographic markets where the cash flow yield is more favorable, rather than trying to stay close to home where the real estate is pricey and cap rates are relatively low. Monica tells it like it is based upon her own real experiences! (Also, she responded to my email with a very informative reply within a day!)
