It is indeed a dumb title, but a great pioneering book that most old timers have read. It is difficult to get, but the author is William Nickerson. Try Amazon, or some of the out of print web sites.

Any good books or web sites on this subject?
I’ve heard that mortgage companies do not like loaning for homes that have already been purchased within the last 6 months Any truth to this?

Almost all ‘get rich quick’ real estate books are about flipping. The best, I think, is the first book on flipping but is hard to get: “How I Turned $1000 In 1Million In My Spare Time.” Stupid title? great book.
Read the Carlton sheets stuff on this site and visit John Reeds’ web site at http://www.johntreed.com/rateseminars.html for the best information on swindles. He is somewhat harsh on this site, but still a good voice for the real estate industry. Take him with a grain of salt.

Hi Ted:
The short answer is Yes.
Go to the Main Newsgroup archives and use the keyword “Seasoning” and you’ll find plenty of discussion on this in recent months.
Hope this helps.
