It's also a great how-to book from an associate of the glitziest and most interesting personality in the real estate business. (BookPage, April 2005)George Ross, Donald Trump's sidekick on The Apprentice (and his longtime real-estate lawyer), offers up a mini-biography of the Donald's best gets, detailing the negotiations behind Trump World Tower at United Nations, Mar-a-Lago, Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue and other illustrious acquisitions.But even average Joes can take Trump's strategies and apply them to their own real-estate investments, says Ross. Like Trump, Ross' suggestions are bold: For example, be willing to overpay for a prime location (it will bring in affluent tenants), don't let anyone else negotiate for you (Trump always negotiates face-to-face), and always try to add that distinctive Trump sizzle (like expensive touches in the lobby of your building).The behind-the-scenes gossip is even better than Ross' advice.For instance, when Trump bought Mar-a-Largo, he purchased all the antique furniture in the estate. Trump promptly sold all the furniture, made more money than he paid for the estate, and then replicated each piece of the original furnishings for the club.Geared toward the ambitious investor, Trump Strategies is an inspiring read for anyone hoping to be the next Donald.
