What a great find this posting has turned out to be. For any kiwi readers willing to search through second hand bookstores it could be worth your while trying to find yourself a copy of Jones on Property by Bob Jones (out of print). This book influenced my decision to get right out of residential property and into the much more stimulating genre of commercial. Bob Jones is sarcastic, witty and thoroughly inspirational. He somehow managed to finance and build a six story high rise in the Hutt area (north of Wellington) when he was in his early twenties, circa 1962.
Property Investment by Martin Hawes (Shoal Bay Press) is another good read, a “How To” book filled with plenty of good common sense ideas, and some not so common.
Happy reading, Julian.
