The Simple Solution
Here’s what some peo­ple are say­ing about the book…

The Sim­ple Solu­tions for Cana­dian Real Estate Invest­ing: Rules for Play­ing the Real Estate Game to Win“Easy to read.” “Prac­ti­cal.” “Humor­ous.” These are hardly descrip­tors that one might use to describe a book on real estate invest­ing in Canada. But they cer­tainly apply to “The Sim­ple Solu­tions for Cana­dian Read Estate Invest­ing,” a new book writ­ten by William Radvanyi.

In pen­ning this book, William Rad­vanyi drew from his own prac­ti­cal expe­ri­ence. William is not a real­tor nor is he a banker – some­thing he states right up front. He is sim­ply a smart man who embarked on the mis­sion to replace his income by invest­ing in real estate. The impe­tus for this life change occurred after an acci­dent left him injured and in need of gen­er­at­ing an income to sup­port his fam­ily dur­ing his recu­per­a­tive period. He did his home­work and has been very suc­cess­ful. And, we all ben­e­fit from this home­work as he chron­i­cles the steps (and warns about the mis­steps) of real estate invest­ing in Canada.  Included are hints for assess­ing the value of prop­er­ties, arrang­ing financ­ing, deal­ing with banks, lever­ag­ing invest­ments, and stay­ing sane in the process.

The book does not fall into the trap that many “how to” books do in being too tech­ni­cal or detailed. As a result, read­ers have no prob­lem sort­ing out the most impor­tant details. I had a chance to read a draft of the book and fin­ished it with a sense that I, too, could repli­cate William’s suc­cess. It is a book I would highly rec­om­mend for any­one – peo­ple pur­chas­ing a house for the first time through to those who are con­sid­er­ing own­er­ship of mul­ti­ple properties.

William Radvanyi’s new book ” The Sim­ple Solu­tion to Cana­dian Real Estate Invest­ing– Rules for Play­ing the Real Estate Game to Win” is an inter­est­ing read. Sur­pris­ingly it does not promise overnight suc­cess or instant wealth but it does offer a real­is­tic and objec­tive view to real estate invest­ing. Mix in deceiv­ingly sim­ple con­cepts, exam­ples easy to fol­low and under­stand with a com­mon sense approach to invest­ing  and you have an inter­est­ing and infor­ma­tive guide to invest­ing in today’s voli­tile real estate mar­ket . From a proven for­mula for select­ing a prop­erty to inno­v­a­tive ways for financ­ing this sys­tem, when fol­lowed, will help even the most novice investor feel con­fi­dent  in their deci­sion mak­ing process. I rec­om­mend this book as a sound and infor­ma­tive resource (see all the forms and infor­ma­tion links at the back of the book) for all lev­els of investors. I know it would have made many of my ear­lier real estate invest­ments eas­ier to acquire and much more profitable!

This is great. Even­tu­ally a book writ­ten based on local expe­ri­ences right here in Edmon­ton Alberta Canada. Edmon­ton Home builders are thank­ful to William for putting all the facts on paper. www.michaelhomesinc.ca is a Edmon­ton Home Builder that spe­cialises in invest­ment prop­er­ties build­ing mul­ti­fam­ily homes, duplexes, 3Plexes & 4Plexes. This is a book that we feel any­one con­sid­er­ing build­ing a real estate invest­ment port­fo­lio here in Edmon­ton should read this book as a great start­ing point.

    I have invested in real estate over the years and this is the first real estate book I have read that gives the reader a bal­anced (or a more real­is­tic) approach to the pos­i­tive and neg­a­tive aspects of real estate invest­ing. If you are con­sid­er­ing invest­ing in real estate, start with William’s book “Sim­ple Solu­tions for Cana­dian Real Estate Invest­ing.”. It will get you started quickly while help­ing to avoid some of the com­mon pit­falls. If you are an expe­ri­enced real estate investor but are hav­ing dif­fi­cul­ties, this book may pro­vide you with some ‘Sim­ple Solutions…’.

    Thanks for some great infor­ma­tion on start­ing me into real estate. This book was very easy detailed but easy to under­stand. I rec­om­mend any­one think­ing about get­ting into real estate and the man­age­ment of ten­nants pick this book to read. Thanks William.

    This book is an excel­lent resource for the novice investor or for any­one think­ing about pur­chas­ing real estate. It con­tains a lot of great infor­ma­tion, is writ­ten in sim­ple terms, some­times blunt and has splashes of humour throughout.

    William’s book is a great guide­book for any­one con­sid­er­ing real estate as a long-term invest­ment strat­egy and I would def­i­nitely rec­om­mend it.
