Since the late 1980’s people have been coming to Pahrump because of the town’s great potential as a retirement community. At the same time, people were coming to and staying in Las Vegas, not only because of the lure of its amazing and exciting entertainment fares, but also because of the steady and strong job market it offers.

The influx of people to Las Vegas has created a great demand for land and for housing, and thus prices has soared up. Pahrump, just a little over 50 miles away, and with its real estate prices very well below that in Las Vegas, coupled with its fresh rural atmosphere setting, has been favored upon as one of the most likely places to live in.

There are many books out there today that advise “Would Be Investors” into utilizing Real Estate Investment, as a powerful tool to gain wealth. One of the most popular books is the best seller “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”. There are plenty of great points the book makes in regards to attaining wealth. One of the key points one can take to heart is the idea of investing in Real Estate- the “headliner” in creating an investment portfolio that leads to the road in attaining wealth. Another major point in the book is the classification of people as either “Reader” or “Doer”. Many people read the books, but only a few actually apply what has been read and learned. This is the difference between the “Rich Dad” and the “Poor Dad”.
