Give me some more info and I should be able to steer you in the right direction. FYI, there are not that many CRE brokerage books on the market. Rod Santomassimo has written *Brokers that Dominate and Knowing Isn't Doing*. There is also Bob McComb's Top Dogs program. Jim Gillespie's, Commercial RE Power Brokers. I also just purchased Mike Falk's *Abundant Broker*, but I have not read it yet. Plan to read it very soon.", "replies": [{"id": "gjucw0c", "text": "I love the book so far. Right now I\u2019m 20 years old. I have experience cold calling for a wholesaling/investing company on the acquisitions and dispositions end. But now I got another regular job to save up some $ and working on getting my license here in Oregon(I live kinda by Portland), bettering my education in this industry and finding somewhere to work under and see where things go. I\u2019m really interested in investment sales though and I\u2019m hungry for success.

Honestly just read poorvus real estate game, it\u2019s the only one that\u2019s worth reading. People will say the MC Ellis book is good but I\u2019m not a fan, it\u2019s all anecdotes from like 1992. Otherwise there isn\u2019t much out there that\u2019s worthwhile that\u2019s not super technical or like con-man stuff. Anyways good luck!", "replies": [{"id": "gjwy318", "text": "Noted.
