If there were one advantage that would make a significant impact on
the growth of your real estate portfolio, what would that be?



If you are just starting out as a real estate investor, what
anxieties or worries might you have? What expertise in particular
would help you understand market fundamentals and help you achieve
your goal of becoming a successful investor and attaining financial
freedom?

If you're an experienced investor, what systems do you have in
place to support your growth without making costly mistakes? Have
you built up a proper support team?

If you are a successful real estate agent, with experience in
residential property, what could you do to enhance that success in
both personal and professional growth? Have you thought about how
real estate investing can help you and your business?

The answer to these questions lies in a very special kind of
relationship-the relationship between the real estate investor and
the real estate agent.

Real Estate Riches is designed to provide investors with
insights into the skills and services that a knowledgeable agent
can provide-one who specializes in meeting the needs of the
investor by understanding the investor's mindset, vision, and goals
to allow them to focus on the larger aspects of their business.
Real Estate Riches is also intended to illustrate to the
agent what an investor's business looks like-from the different
strategies and types of properties the investor focuses on, to the
specifics of investment towns, neighbourhoods and streets, to
timelines and cycles for growing the investor's portfolio.

How do you go about finding that agent with the requisite
skills? The answer lies within the pages of Real Estate
Riches. Filled with real-life case studies, tips, and the
hard-won knowledge that comes from experience, the book is
motivational, practical, and useful-and it will be among your
wisest investments.



"This book really shows professional investors and professional
agents how, if done right, both parties can come out with better
financial results with less hassle by treating the real estate
business like any other business-creating long-term relationships
in which each party respects the other's profession and treats each
other's time like the important commodity that it is."

- Don R. Campbell, Author, market analyst, and investor

"Tahani is an inspiration. She shows firsthand how with the
right mindset and the right team you can build a future in real
estate while not compromising what's truly important."

- Philip McKernan, Author of South of 49 and Fire Sale

"Tahani's story is powerful, and demonstrates what can happen
when you focus on helping people and living your passion. She
reveals the 'human' side of real estate, and why it's so important
to build a powerful team around you that you can trust."

- Greg Habstritt, Founder of SimpleWealth.com and best-selling
author of The Real Estate Secret

"Tahani gives the novice investor a clear insight into the world
of a savvy, investor-friendly real estate agent and the importance
of having someone with her experience on your team. Whether you are
a seasoned investor or just starting out, this book will be an
invaluable tool in your investor toolbox."
