Book Review: Loopholes of Real Estate – by Garrett Sutton

Loopholes of Real Estate is from the Rich Dad’s Advisors series. In this look-before-you-leap guide to real estate investment, Sutton shares advice for reaping the financial opportunities available in real estate – providing that you check the water depth before diving. In other words, don’t enter the realm blindly – learn the system. 

Sutton doesn’t simply ‘tell’ you what to do; he uses case studies, diagrams, and practical information to ‘show’ you the way.

Loopholes of Real Estate is divided into five sections – 

Part One: Real Estate Advantages covers the overview of real estate investing and its benefits. 

Part Two: Get in the Game teaches the reader how to create an investment plan, build a personal advisement team, and choose your investment.   

Part Three: Tax Strategies is precisely that– Sutton explains analyzing an investment’s financial potential. He also covers tax advantages and investment management strategies.   

Part Four: Legal Strategies covers the legalities involved in protecting your investments.   

Part five: Selection Strategies expounds on issues and legalities pertinent to choosing a potentially profitable property 

 Each section also contains – 

  • Viable loopholes pertaining to the information covered in that chapter 
  • Relevant checklists 
  • Links and referrals to additional books and online resources  

Sutton is an author of multiple self-help books about finance and business. He has the unique ability to take a complex subject and teach it in a way that is easily understood. 

 These two reviewers sum up the book well – 

 “This is an excellent book for those looking to invest in real estate – the information in this book does well to clarify the do’s, don’ts, and loopholes, and I heartily recommend this book as a must-read for anyone interested in real estate on any level. Whether buying your first home or adding another multi-unit apartment complex to your vast real estate portfolio, Garrett Sutton’s book is a fantastic overview of the “nuts and bolts” of buying, owning, and selling real estate.” 

 and 

“Garrett Sutton’s book, “Loopholes of Real Estate,” is the best and most comprehensive book that I know of to frame a person’s perspective of real estate investment through the lenses of tax minimization, asset protection, and cash flow maximization. Mr. Sutton, formerly a real estate broker himself and currently a real estate investor and attorney, brings real-life experience, the law, and the professional knowledge of some of Robert Kiyosaki’s greatest Rich Dad Advisors to bear in this outstanding work.”  

 All in all: The Loopholes of Real Estate goes deep into the loopholes, educating people who want to invest in real estate and helping them succeed.
