George Ross, Donald Trump's sidekick on "The Apprentice" (andhis longtime real-estate lawyer), offers up a mini-biography of theDonald's best "gets," detailing the negotiations behind Trump WorldTower at United Nations, Mar-a-Lago, Trump Tower on Fifth Avenueand other illustrious acquisitions.
But even average Joes can take Trump's strategies and apply them totheir own real-estate investments, says Ross. Like Trump, Ross'suggestions are bold: For example, be willing to overpay for aprime location (it will bring in affluent tenants), don't letanyone else negotiate for you (Trump always negotiatesface-to-face), and always try to add that distinctive Trump"sizzle" (like expensive touches in the lobby of yourbuilding).
The behind-the-scenes gossip is even better than Ross'advice.
For instance, when Trump bought Mar-a-Largo, he purchased all theantique furniture in the estate. Trump promptly sold all thefurniture, made more money than he paid for the estate, and thenreplicated each piece of the original furnishings for theclub.
Geared toward the ambitious investor, "Trump Strategies" is aninspiring read for anyone hoping to be the next Donald. (The NewYork Post, March 19, 2005)
