Detroit Michigan is not expected to recover from its projected 21.3 percent decline until the early part of 2009.Thanks,

I expected to recover anything spent since I had built up my income to about $200,000 a year.

So, depending on the area, the house, etc. it may cost you $500, $1,000, $1,500 but that money is quickly recovered by having them out of the house immediately.

i wonder if anyone can talk alittle about recovering earnest money. my particular situation was, a contract was signed, i put down 1000.00 for earnest money. when the closing date came, the contract expired, and we did not close that day. my lender was waiting for documents from the sellers bank involving the foreclosure the property was in. a full week went by, and i changed my mind, and notified my lender that i would not buy this property. 4 days later i was being contacted by the realtors that everything was set to close. we were out of contract, and now the seller refuses to release the 1000.00 back. he is demanding that i pay him 3000.00 dollars for his troubles. i told him i would give him the 1000.00, but he wanted more. we are in oklahoma, which probably explains it all, but if anyone can speak to this issue, i would appreciate it so much...

@Jay Hinrichs We're still recovering from prohibition in Georgia.

You're correct that affiliate marketing isn't going to necessarily be stable cash flow -- should Google change their algorithms tomorrow, who knows how long it would take you to recover.

Latest reports are (I'm summarizing here) that we've been recovering for a few years, and it's picking up steam. 2014 should be even better economically for Vegas, and estimates are that we should be back to pre-recession levels by 2016.More reading:http://lasvegas.cbslocal.com/2014/06/17/report-economic-recovery-not-slowing/http://www.8newsnow.com/story/25799311/report-employment-in-las-vegas-will-rebound-by-2016http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2014/jun/17/report-las-vegas-area-employment-will-rebound-2016/That's good news long term for the stability of our housing recovery that's occurred.

This is back in the day when the market is trying to recover and i have the luxury of pick and choose foreclosure with minimal competition.This is in Houston Texas and i bought it for 74,200$ 20% down.

I'd want to recover as much as possible and still have him gone.

Which markets across the nation have not recovered yet?
