Also I had bought a course, which i'm very happy i did, and it gave me a contract to put the buyer in and actaully go into the deal stating that i have a group of investors that i work with and i will help u sell your house (something along those lines ill have to re-examine the info).

I have started buying and selling vacant lots in a large development in my area, with great success in just the last two months/There are tons of sellers looking to dump their lots, and I have had good luck selling quickly, I work at a title company, and so examine title and include title insurance on all purchases, and have tried to do everything the right way.Today i was confronted by a broker in the area about my business, which she says is illegal.

On the other hand, a guy I went to high school with finished the course in two weeks, and was sitting for the state exam in three.

BV,I disagree with the idea that 100% financing is impossible to get and that you can't cash flow.

Cash - this might be one of the rare occasions I disagree with you.

You're very welcome JennH.I'm from california originally, in fact I worked in Corona and llived in Rancho Cucamonga where we also experienced incredible appreciation rates.I know zero about the stock market except that anything I ever invested in I lost money on :( However, many of my friends have made money there.Fortunately, my RE investments recouped my stock losses :)If you do decide to follow through with land speculation, make sure you examine the land and have it surveyed before closing.

We must agree to disagree...so I'll leave it like that...Peace!

I would think that after all those years you would have come to the realization that there are many ways to make money in this market.a. i do have fundsb. i own investment propertiesc. i disagree with your statement
