"You saved me $8,000...you mentioned... credit for prior year minimum tax. My accountant failed to show this on my Form 1040. I contacted him and he amended the tax return so that I will get a refund of $8,000. How sweet it is!" John A. White, Albuquerque, NM

What subscribers have said
Jack:
I just mailed off the renewal to REIM but I wanted to give you this endorsement.
Your real estate publications are of great value to me. It is now about 20 years since I ran across an early version of Aggressive Tax Avoidance, read it avidly, and filed away mentally the information on 1031 like kind exchanges. That one tip, and follow up comments you have made about exchanges in other publications, has made me about $100,000 in extra profits in my real estate investing over the past several years. I have not read every word you have written on real estate investing, so I wonder now what I may have missed. Perhaps I should buy all your other publications just to make sure. Certainly they are a better way to gain information than most of the dreck on the market today.
I appreciate your hard-nosed, analytical, unemotional approach to this topic, flavored, no doubt, by your Army background and Harvard MBA. Your website information is likewise valuable, particularly the "guru" ratings, and I hope you can keep this going.
I wish you success in your future endeavors,
Mark Anderson
