Publisher's Synopsis
Seemingly all of our nation's real estate wealth is tied up by the oldest people. And they refuse to die. This leaves the rest of us without any real path to property ownership and stuck in a hopeless, stagnant society. Consequently, more and more of us never marry or have children, seek and find comfort in video games or social media, and essentially give up on life in the face of a seemingly hopeless situation.
Aldon Bolanos is here as living proof to show us the situation is not hopeless after all. This book explores strategies for acquiring residential real estate in an unfair world. It includes cleareyed, real-world tips, tricks and stories about how the author was able to acquire eleven multi-unit properties with forty-two rental units over fifteen years in the face of a society built by the Baby Boomers to protect and preserve their wealth, and the expense of everyone else. From creative financing techniques for outsmarting banks to methods for bypassing the local bureaucratic permitting process to actually wresting control of properties from entrenched Geris (short for Geriatrics), Bolanos has written the ultimate insider's guide for any young person seeking to build real estate wealth in the face of overwhelming adversity and against all the odds.
