Fortunately for real estate investors everywhere, there are a lot of real estate titles that have some great information on real estate investing.  Unfortunately, there are also a lot of books on real estate out there by get-rich-quick schemers and authors who may have completed a small handful of transactions and now want to tell everyone else how it is done. Many of these books are little more than promotional fluff to get you to buy whatever "can't lose" investment system these fast-talkers and new-comers to the real estate world are shilling. It can be difficult to wade through all the snake oil and "too-dumb to know I was lucky" books to find quality information. Here at Memphis Invest we have done some of the work for you by selecting a few good books. Here are three real estate book recommendations, in no particular order, that can actually leave you smarter than they found you. 

So now we know that the Bass Pro Shops plan to be right on track with the opening of the Memphis Super Store in Downtown Memphis Pyramid and just in time for the Holiday season of 2013. I think this gives Memphis real estate investors a big reason to cheer.  The positives of a project like this one go far beyond simply economics.  As Memphis continues to reach out and recruit more major international companies to relocate to Memphis, having family friendly attractions that also add to the tourist draw of the city can do nothing but improve the cities positives.  That growth makes for a stronger over-all real estate market in Memphis.

In case you've been asleep for the entirety of the smartphone era thus far, here's a news flash: There's an app for everything now. If you can think of it, there's probably an app for it; if not, there's probably one (or more likely 50) in development for it somewhere. Heck, even if you haven't thought of it, there's probably an app for it. (If you don't believe us, check out Ghost Radar. It's an app that supposedly gives you everything you need to measure paranormal activity.)  Here at Memphis Invest, we released our first real estate investing App about 2 years ago and are already working on two new Apps.  One will be just for our clients and the other will be for any real estate investor out there that finds it useful.  We certainly are not going into the App business, but we definitely see it as a way to continue to put distance between ourselves and other companies.  Plus there seems to be an App wave going on!

Nearly every week we have investors in our offices to "watch" what we do.  Let's get one thing straight right now...we are not exciting!  But they don't come for excitement.  Most come with questions of how we operate our business.  They want to see the day to day operation of our businesses and get up close answers for themselves.  Sometimes investors are able to come to town on a Tuesday and experience our weekly staff meetings.
