In either case, whether you have had this type of negativeexperience or have been fortunate enough to escape such a peril,it will be a refreshing and rewarding treat working withInstitutional Buyers; liken unto a totally new world.2.

I was fortunate enough to find a REO deal after the divorce and shortly thereafter the market really took off where I live in FL so I have a fair amount of equity in the property even ater a home equity loan.

I have been fortunate enough to avoid this (so far), but I have some friends that have dealt with it and it ain't pretty.Personally I use NTN for my screening.

The problems that I dealt with during my first year as a landlord:Water pipe burst / total rehab of 1 unitPay-as-you-go general contractor that didn't finish the work on the unitMold / complaint filed with Health DepartmentCrack in foundation that let water come into 1 unit every time it rainedGot locked in to a below-market-rent section 8 rentalMarketing for vacant unitsTenant disputesSection 8 dispute (although in this case it earned me $1900 :mrgreen: )Fortunately I haven't had to deal with evictions yet, but I know they'll come in due time.

hiya,let me introduce myself. i am a 21 year old enthusiastic investor from toronto, ontario. i have been involved in the purchase of three properties this year ranging from multiplexes to houses with acreage. this limited experience of actually getting proactive and getting started has taught me way more than any book has ever taught me. a tip to other beginners. i have also had some background knowledge in the real estate industry with my parents starting out a real estate rental business 10 years ago. however their knowledge is quite elementary and i have a lot to learn. fortunately i have found this site. and while browsing for the past couple days i have found that there are many invaluable resources and brilliant minds aboard.ps. slthough i have found the canadian content lacking i am confident that with our similar laws the ideas are all valid.looking forward to meeting you,joe

I actually received an email from Suha Arafat, she said she wants to split her fortune with me, all I have to do is give her my bank account numbers!

Their fortune should be divided up and distributed somehow.

The author happens to have made much of his fortune in real estate and small caps, but there are other avenues he points out early in the book.

We also have some potential property in Canada that is up for grabs and all of the offering we have are dirt cheap and yet worth small fortunes and I just cannot see how they can fail.
