I was in my late twenties and was on one of my first book tours, giving a talk at a bookstore in San Jose, California. After a long down period, the real estate market in California was starting to take off, and many of the people who had come to see me had questions about whether now was a good time to buy property. In the middle of discussing the benefits of homeownership, I called on a young woman named Karen, who seemed particularly excited. "David," she asked, "what do you think about the idea of setting up an LLC for real estate? I'm trying to decide if I should put my property investments into an LLC or a Nevada corporation." An LLC, by the way, is a Limited Liability Corporation. Don't worry if you don't know what this is. Neither did Karen when she asked the question. I told Karen there was no simple answer to her question. "It depends," I said. "What type of real estate do you own?" Karen blushed a little, then said, "Actually, I don't own any yet, but I just read a book on real estate that said I should put my real estate in an LLC or Nevada corporation, because then my assets would be protected against frivolous lawsuits." She shrugged helplessly. "It all sounded so complicated. I'm not sure where to start." "Well, let me ask you something else," I replied. "Do you have a lot of assets right now?" Karen shook her head. "Not really." I smiled at her. "You just read a book on real estate," I said. "Why? Is it owning real estate that matters to you or the financial freedom you're hoping to get from it?" "The financial freedom," Karen said firmly. "I want to get out of debt, stop renting, and finally get ahead. I'm tired of living paycheck to paycheck." "That's great. Congratulations on knowing what you want and making a decision to get there. You've already done the hard part--something that most people never do. Now, how about we focus on it one step at a time? Instead of worrying about whether or not you need a complicated LLC structure for your assets, let's look at how you would go from renting to homeownership. That's really your first step in building assets." Karen nodded enthusiastically. "I know," she said. "My parents told me that I should focus on buying a home. The book I read said I should look at foreclosures and buy real estate with no money down. But the... ReviewsUSA Today...
"[Bach's] cheery, can-do message...cuts through the intimidating challenge of buying a house for the first-timer... for a newcomer, it's fundamental reading."
Robert J. Bruss, The Miami Herald
... "If you read only one real estate book this year, it should be The Automatic Millionaire Homeowner...This is one of the few real estate books that cannot be recommended too highly for both beginners and experienced homeowners."
