Being more or less interested in real estate and the possibilities of making it "fortune" or become partly annuitant, I bought this book to discover the "secret" ... Rest assured there is no really, Elise Franck probably has very good skills in decorating, to identify property that have the potential and know resell them, but I think many people have done the same thing in riding the wave property of these last 10 years, particularly between 2004 and 2008 when the increase was quite impressive and without special skills. However she based her "method" on two axes which have the merit of actually being the foundation to progress quickly and efficiently, ie maintain its borrowing capacity and get immediate income. Or she does not, and should appear on the first page of the book is "during a property boom period" therefore "How I became a rentier in four years during the housing boom" for all the figure is obsolete, since rents / price ratio are completely obsolete today real estate is saturated particularly in the Paris region, where it is almost impossible to obtain rents exceeding the monthly payments on a loan so the yields are low . This book, however, brings some interesting things missing in the book of Olivier Seban (everyone deserves to be rich) and I think offer a real complement to know the scenarios, buy / sell / lease, party decoration / refurbishment of housing goes too in unnecessary details that give the impression of being there just to cover pages for lack of inspiration. This is a book that complements the end, a real estate investment vision with a method that although it is not always valid (certainly not right now) must surely work well if applied at the right moment.
