    Hi All!

    I'm looking for names of any good real estate investment books, in relation to positive/negative gearing, taxation, strategies, etc, etc.

    I've read Steve's book "From 0 to 130 Properties in 3.5 years" and a friend has recommended "Real Estate Riches"

    Any recommendations would be much appreciated :-)

    Cheers!

    Some other authors you may wish to explore include:

    Jan Somers

    Peter Spann

    Michael Yardney

    John Fitzgerald

    I got something from each and everyone of them.

    Others speak highly of Margaret Lomas books.

    Hi JP,

    There are two huge threads with book lists, just run a search on 'book list' and you should find them.

    I would say that based on suggestions on the site there are 100's of great books to read!

    Cheers

    There's also a couple of decent investment property mags.

    Australian Property Investor and Your Investment Property – I used to enjoy having a read of these when I had a bit more time.

    Cheers

    I like John Reed books on real estate investment. They are always full of great information and have a lot of practical advises, especially for people who are new to property investment.

    Hello Sheree

    Take it for what it's worth but I believe it's best to be open about affiliate links, e.g.  webuyhouses.infusionsoft.com/go/booktour/shereeb  A short declaration that it's an affiliate link helps credibility.

    Regarding the book in question, it does give a broad overview of the various VF techniques.  However what I found disappointing was there was one short reference to the NCCP Act 2009 and no mention of any required licensing.
