For quite some time now I've concentrated on looking at two of those, the far reaches of the Inland Empire (Hemet, Victorville, Desert Hot Springs, etc.), and the least desirable parts of LA (South Central, Compton, etc.)

., and where do you concentrate your money?

They are the Aborigines and Darwin of the Northwest Territory is where they are mostly concentrated.

And if any of you in Tampa have some concentric information that would be GREAT!

If that is what you are looking at, there are risks involved in concentrating in an area that are beyound the scope of anyone who has no development experience.

Now a Renters' Market Marcus & Millichap is to release a separate report on Friday that forecasts a further 2% to 3% drop in apartment rents over the next year, most of which will be concentrated over the next six months.This is one of the unintended consequences of government policy: rising rental vacancy rates, falling rents, more losses for CMBS investors and local and regional banks, more bank failures, downward pressure on CPI (rent is largest component of CPI) ... and eventually more downward pressure on house prices as the massive government support for house prices slows (because of the price-to-rent ratio).

Good points Hac, all viable options.Key, concentrate on just one or two strategies, trying to do too many will result in nothing getting completed.

Should I just start concentrating on private lenders?

Then concentrate on your car payment.

Hello all,I'm hoping someone here can give me some information or if I am out of luck on this...I started my business in 08/09, we did not make any money in 2009 because we concentrated on marketing our business, building credit, getting the base of the business down before jumping in.
