@Sam Van Horebeek Hi Sam, I have heard of several cases where Chinese cash (a lot of it black money I assume) is flooding several RE markets here in US.

you could probably find some more info on meetup.com.Around Boston I can tell you that you should get out to the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham.  

It is very black or white.

Local to you check out the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham and you can look into the Boston Area REIA in Medford.  

Any advice I make very good money and have a good credit score but one black flag bankruptcy

As you've probably seen, there's a wealth of free information here on BP in the forums and also the podcasts are great.I also recommend getting out to a local real estate investor group/association, such as the RI Real Estate Investors Group (rireig.com) or Black Diamond Real Estate Investors (blackdiamondrealestateinvestors.com).And of course if you have specific questions you're welcome to post them to the forums too :)

You also want to check out the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham (2nd meeting in Worcester), which is next week.  

Here comes patrol person in all black walking down the sidewalk.

Ben,Calling the kettle black.

The name of the company is Black Canyon Cutting Boards if you are interested!
