Robert Campbell - Timing the Real Estate Market

The new 2007 Edition of Timing the Real Estate Market has been revised with data and charts that have been updated through the end of 2006.

Robert has been living and breathing real estate from the time he learned how to walk. The son of a successful San Diego homebuilder/developer, he started investing in real estate at age 24, borrowing $14,000 from his parents for the down payment on a 6-unit apartment house in Ocean Beach. After doing some cosmetic repairs and raising the rents, he sold the property for an $11,000 profit one year later. He was hooked.

Since then, Robert Campbell has had a multifaceted 35-year real estate career that includes:

•    As a real estate investor, he has bought and sold over 40 rental properties.
•    As a real estate developer, he has built over 50 homes and apartment units.
•    As a California real estate broker (licensed in 1976), he has handled the sales and mortgage financing for hundreds of clients.

    Based on the five key trend indicators presented in his book, Robert publishes The Campbell Real Estate Timing Letter, which is the only real estate timing advisory for California investors. With an 80% accuracy rate since 1982, you can see the “buy” and “sell” signals for San Diego, Los Angeles, and San Francisco by going to www.CaliforniaRealEstateTiming.com.

Education: Robert Campbell earned a BA in Economics from the University of California at Los Angeles in 1969 and an M.B.A. in Real Estate Finance from San Diego State University in 1974.
