About the Book

Riding the Bubble is the DAILY DIARY of a millionaire real estate investor learning the business from the ground up during the most volatile market in history. Anyone who has ever contemplated flipping houses or investing in real estate should read this book. Author Scott Benjamin began taking meticulous notes before owning any properties. He describes, in great detail, the process of finding, fixing and flipping his first house. His story includes the trials and tribulations of raising money, buying and developing land, purchasing an office building, owning rental property - all the way through the development of a 193-unit apartment complex and accumulation of over $2,000,000 of net worth. This book is uniquely written in real time over the course of 10 years of real estate growth. Learn and experience the thrills of making money during the rise of the real estate bubble and live alongside Scott during the crash that cost him millions of dollars. With complete honesty and open financial disclosures, Riding the Bubble will absolutely open your eyes and provide an insider's look into what real estate investing is all about.
About the Author: Scott Benjamin is a serial entrepreneur with a recurring passion for real estate. In 1991, he received his real estate salespersons license in Florida, but only earned $230 in commissions. Following a stint in the restaurant business working for Domino's Pizza and Rudy's Hamburgers, Scott created Signature Properties out of Baltimore, Maryland in 2001. Over a ten year period, Scott learned the real estate business from the ground up. Scott bought and sold over 100 houses, purchased numerous land development deals, invested in vacation properties, tax certificates and currently owns college rental properties and various commercial real estate holdings. Seeing the eminent crash of 2008 approaching, Scott pivoted careers and earned a PhD in Strategy at the age of 42 from the University of Maryland and is currently on the faculty at Florida Tech in Melbourne, Florida. In 2014, Scott began investing in real estate once again with an eye on capitalizing on the rising real estate market. In the past year, he has actively worked with college students who have flipped 7 houses, purchased a land development deal, and are pursuing a motel conversion project. He enjoys sharing his passion and knowledge for real estate with others through teaching and public speaking.
