About this title

About the Author

Monica Villasenor's commercial real estate investing career began when she was fired from her job as a dental hygienist when she was five months pregnant. Monica realized that being fired was the kick in the butt she needed to pursue real estate investing on a full time basis. In three years Monica Villasenor has managed to acquire almost $5,000,000 of commercial real estate. Demonstrating the ultimate example of thinking creatively, Monica created the reality television program, "The Making of a Millionaire" which captures her journey of converting apartments to condominiums. She created the show as a strategy for obtaining support for a condo conversion project from the local city officials. Monica lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with her husband, Mike and her sons, Camden and Connor.

Review

Yes, I'm the one who described this book as "The book Robert Kiyosaki's second book should have been." I've read all of Kiyosaki's books, but it's rare to find a person who takes that knowledge and applies it to their life. That is exactly what Monica has done. This book shows the journey of how she was able to go from being fired to owning $5,000,000 in commercial real estate in 3 years. This book is written in a conversation type of style-like you're having a conversation with Monica and you will definetely get a sense of who she is because how she expresses her thoughts in this book is how she would express them if she sat down and spoke with you on the telephone. While reading this book I was amazed at the vast differences of investing in residential real estate and commercial real estate. I can now look for opportunties to invest in commercial real estate with the knowledge that I really need to know! --Eric Wedemyer, Civil Engineer

If you don't know what cash on cash return, Cap Rates, GRM's, IRR, and how financing effects these numbers then do yourself a favor and buy a copy of this book. As a real estate agent, I've purchased several real estate books, but I could have just brought this one instead and saved a lot of money. Written in familiar, everyday language, The Best Damn Commercial Real Estate Investing Book Ever Written, is just that. It's full of nuts and bolts that every real estate investor can use from the beginner to the every day pro could use. It covers EVERYTHING the other books go over, AND it gives you FAR MORE DETAILS and far better explanations in which to base your next real estate decision. Reading this book, I've learned more in one night than I learned in an entire lifetime working in the real estate industry. --Derek Buress, Real Estate Agent

Monica is smart. In fact, Monica is so smart it's scary! Do yourself a favor and buy this book! --Thomas Duarte, Contractor
