[Andrew · Rating 3 out of 5]

3/5 as it provides general info but nothing specific or spectacular. It's truly geared toward the absolute beginner. "Canadian" content makes up about 10-15% of the book; most information is generic (e.g. how to advertise to prospective tenants/what does a lawyer do). Good as the very first book on the topic, but must be supplemented by something with more information.

Very generic and not super useful. Good background knowledge on everything, but I don't feel like I really got actionable steps out of this.

Such a great tool

A fairly comprehensive but basic compendium of basics related to real estate investing for canadians.

On the downside, the content is neither detailed nor specific enough to really help anyone with a cursory knowledge of real estate investing.
