It depends where you are at and what you want to do. If you already own investment RE the tax avoidance book is a good starting point. If you want to get started in RE investing then the how to buy for 20% below market books are good, as well as the deals that make sense book.

Another thought, since this is in the Stock Market thread catagory. Kiyosaki's thoughts on the financial markets are even more devoid of useful info than his real estate advice, IMO.

If you're getting started in RE investing and have good income but not a great net worth (and you're single or are with a spouse that can handle it), a great way to get started is to become a serial owner occupant. I don't think Iv'e even seen Reed write about this. Buy a multifamily property using owner occupied financing, move in and live there for a year (to satisfy the morgage co. requirement) then repeat the process until you have accumulated several properties. You obviously have to be willing to landlord to do this.
