How do these select entrepreneurs become superstar investors?

Does it just happen because of good fortune and good timing? Or, are there specific strategies and knowledge that give them a distinct formula for success?

Marcus & Millichap, one of the nation's premier real estate investment brokerage firms, has put the answers to these questions in a new book, Foundations of Wealth: How to Build a Real Estate Empire.

Complementing the individual profiles is an extensive long-term outlook from the principals of Marcus & Millichap that explores the various demographic trends that impact the real estate market--invaluable knowledge and forecasts from the industry's investment experts. A compilation of annotations, resources and poignant investing tips round out what is being deemed a "revolutionary book."

Arsenault, Hamilton, Leeds and Marcil have all developed multimillion dollar portfolios, but their roads to success are as diverse as the real estate market itself.

Each one describes, in detail, their road to success and tactics and strategies they sometimes learned the hard way.

"The narratives provided by Marcel, John, Ben and Gerald should be gold to the mid-level or even novice investor. Their stories aren't infomercials or get-rich-quick schemes A Get-rich-quick scheme is a plan to acquire high rates of return for a small investment. Most such schemes promise that participants can obtain this high rate of return with little risk.

Most get-rich-quick schemes also promise that little skill, effort, or time is required.
