 - Karen Nelson Bell is My Mentor For LifeI have known Karen since the late 70s. However, I knew her as a successful performing artist and not the "business type." Karen became my mentor in Las Vegas and was instrumental in launching my dancing, as well as my singing career there. Later I moved to Florida, only to find out that she had successfully become a multi-millionaire from real estate investing, of all things. Karen became my mentor yet again and I signed up for her Nothing Down for Women online course two summers ago. I had since become a High School teacher. As a direct result of Karen's course and the principles contained in her book, Nothing Down for Women, I have accumulated 4 properties so far! Combined with my own home, I now have a total worth of over a million dollars!! The first property I closed on when I was less than half way through the course. WOW! It has doubled in value in the last 18 months! Karen's experience and expertise, and step-by-step outline helped me overcome great fear. Not only the fear of entering a field I knew little about, but also the fear a woman has of what to do on a meager teacher's salary, if something were to happen to her husband. I am forever indebted to Karen for all this and more. Sheree Stewart Rating: - Karen Nelson Bell, woman of honesty and integrityKaren has been a friend of mine since we first met in 1979. I am so so proud of this book and of her accomplishments in investing and in sharing her knowledge with others. She has cracked the code for investors in that she has laid out the sequential steps and the necessary things to know, but more importantly has done so in a way to where a person can DO this and without getting overwhelmed and stopped. My wife and I are a living testimony to her expertise and her help. This book is an honest reflection of the sincere and helpful people that Robert Allen AND Karen Nelson Bell are. I've been in business for myself since 1979 and business isn't for the faint of heart. Even the faint of heart can do real estate investing the way it is laid out in this book, though. If someone cannot follow and implement these ideas and this information, I feel they must have a severe deficiency in their literacy (but a good dictionary could help with even that). They have actually revealed the investors' "secrets" in this marvelous book! They've let the cat out of the bag. Now anyone can play this game! Rating: - A man's point of viewThis book may be titled "Nothing Down for Women" but let me let you in on a secret - it's the bomb for guys too! Clearly written with a gradient approach to understanding the exact processes necessary to actually BUY Real Estate with "Nothing Down" techniques. Not a lot of "fluff" just proven and practiced tequniques that result in owning real estate. How do I know? 18 months ago I had NEVER owned a house - now I own 9! When I started buying houses I had NO job and my credit wasn't spectacular. Using Karen's techniques not only made me into a professional Real Estate investor, it also gave me the knowledge to start a successful business helping other investors "farm" their properties. Is everything you'll ever need to know about Real Estate investing in this book - of course not - but there is enough information to take the complete novice through every step necessary to buy an investment property or properties! Even seasoned investors will learn a thing or two! Certainly not written in the usual dry prose of investment books, this is a writer with heart and flair who can really communicate complex concepts in a simple, crisp way that not only allows you to understand this subject but gives you the ability to ACT, DO and OBTAIN actual products! So, even if you're a shy guy with insecurities, take the cover off a manly book, like "Investments on Steroids", wrap it around "Nothing Down for Women" and get the knowledge that will make you millions. And when you get asked your investment secrets, you can give a wry grin, slowly shake your head and say with a smile "I can think like a woman!". Rating: - Nothing Down for WomenExcellent book to help anyone get started in Real Estate investing. Have read many of them, this is the best so far. The only thing anyone needs to do is ACT. Fred B. Griswold Rating: - What everyone should get if they want to invest in real estateThis book is fantastic! It takes all the fear and confusion out of this investment vehicle. It gives many examples. It shares people's mistakes and how to deal with them. The entire purpose of the book is to help you help others and I like that. In association with Amazon.com | |
