I love the commodity ETFs Gold, Silver, and Oil (SLV, GLD, USO).With the Republicans borrowing money from other countries and the Dems raising taxes, we are all heading for further inflation.

First time rental property (amateur) owners are a gold mine of fines and fees for the IRS.

Then building a relationship with your seller and truly helping your client.If you need help with anything just shoot me an email, I am located in the high desert "Gold in these here hills or desert" Los Angeles County CA.P.S. this may be the wrong section for this, I have a deal that might work for you in Hesperia, CA. @ with $85,000 in equity.

Most I have seen use a fee agreement with the NCND on the commercial side.The fee agreement has a disclaimer that they are not a securities dealer,financial planner,mortgage broker,etc.It simply states they are a business consultant and xx number of points will be paid from the closing to be put onto the loan.Basically a fee for bringing two parties together on the commercial side to do a transaction.This can be for energy,gold mine and other deals as well.The key is full disclosure.Residential is highly regulated unlike commercial.On the commercial side everyone is trying to slam in deals before the government wants to "regulate something" and stick it's nose where it doesn't belong.On the residential side you have the Georgia Residential Mortgage Lending Act which ALSO states you are NOT allowed to counsel people with loan modifications etc. unless you are licensed.So as said the feds have rules and the states have rules and you have to make sure both are covered.

After all if it was truly unlimited scalability, you should quit your office job and just work at making $100,000 a day instead of $1000 a day online.I'd get a new job you can live with and continue slowly doing what you're doing in real estate and ride your gold mine for as long as you can.

I normally buy foreclosed with issues so I buy knowing I have to repair my money pump before I can try to start it.You're right Tony, I haven't had an out-of-towner who looks at my high profit neighborhood and blindly buys...though most happily buy in slightly-better areas after they've seen what I have been getting gold from. :) If I can make it in a challenged area, the blue-collar fringes are down right appealing!

The LA area is better than gold if you happen to come across one.
