Real Estate Investing Focus of August NetLibrary eBook
With proper planning and a little help from NetLibrary's August eBook of the Month, homeowners, investors and other stakeholders can avoid disaster and even profit on their properties regardless of what the market does. Beyond the Bubble, by Michael C. Thomsett, takes a balanced look at what drives changes in real estate markets and how these changes affect property owners and investors. Readers will learn:
- The history, nature and dynamics of market bubbles
- How to anticipate a coming downturn and act accordingly
- The regional nature of real estate market conditions
- Differences and similarities in residential and commercial markets
- Other profit strategies when selling is difficult or impossible
- How to analyze the market using facts, not hype
Beyond the Bubble explains and examines the real estate bubble in a context of a larger investment market and the overall economy, helping to understand how and why bubbles emerge and, historically, what has happened to earlier bubbles. Once readers study the broader markets and bubbles in this context, they will be able to develop an awareness of key market drivers affecting real estate prices, both economic and noneconomic, and be better able to evaluate markets and predict the rise and fall of prices.
