These recommendations aren't page turners, they don’t tell you how to achieve maximum output with minimum input or romanticize someone’s rags to riches story.  These books cover the basics and take you from a beginner level through an intermediate level of understanding of the basic principles of real estate investing, owning multifamily property and property management. 

You bought an income property, now it’s time to crack the whip and get it into shape.  The sooner this is done, the sooner you can put things on auto pilot.
