Aren't current interest rates artificially low ?

Really great deals can be hard to find when you rehab-to-rent or fix&flip, so I just couldn't see the intelligence in handing over a great spread to someone else for a little quick cash.

I guess it's clear from his thoughts that he doesn't think Blackstone and so on are artificially inflating prices, or that the weakening middle class, or middle class debt (student loans, for example), or that our economy 70% based on consumer spending (read: a populace that can afford to buy things) are weakness to cause one to steer clear of long term holding of real estate.

Find a great estate planning attorney who can solidly protect your home from predators and then you will have the confidence to take intelligent risks in your financial future.

I'm trying to say, too many come to me and insult my intelligence implying or attempting to sell a deal rather than let it speak for itself giving assurances and telling me how brilliant they are.

(This will limit buying power in some cases)Bernanke is talking like quantitative easing is ending (This is what has been keeping the interest rates so artificially low).With all of these major changes in the air it's hard to predict.

What are the terms of the mortgage (fixed rate, arm, time left on the mortgage, a balloon note etc...)I can no longer speak intelligently about wrap sales because of the new laws that have taken effect and I have not kept up with them.I hope this helps.

If you have the chance to show that you are an intelligent solution creator only then will you find success.

When the market is being driven by short term investors looking for big appreciation gains in a short time period, then the market can become artificially inflated, with the short term investors just selling to other short term investors in a nasty repeating cycle that drives up the price of real estate.

It's pretty clear that real estate values have re inflated to pre recession bubble values in many areas as a result of artificially low interest rates.
