Hi I received a copy of your Property 101 book as part of subscribing to the Property Investor magazine. Once I started reading I couldn’t put the book down. I have 4 investment properties (all based in Upper Hutt, Wellington) but never really understood the science of property investing. I am so much more informed now that I have read your book. After reading your book I will approach my next purchase differently and be a much more informed investor. The weblinks also provide great sources of information to follow up on and a property mentor will be someone I will definitely be seeking out. At the end of the book it included an offer for a discussion with GRA which I am keen to take up. Regards - GH - September 2015
