I"d have to fundamentally disagree with this statment.

And until we get a President with enough balls to be able to stand up and say, "Things suck, and they're going to suck for a while, but we're going to change the fundamental way we do business in this country, and in 2, 5 or maybe even 10 years, things will be back on track."

The only issue is finding someone that is willing to lend it.If you're buying rental property, then you're looking for cash flow moreso than appreciation (fundamentals tell you that cash flow is the ONLY way to analyze a property, and that appreciation is a bonus).

Under "Market fundamentals" I am reading:"from third quarter 2008 thru third quarter 2009" values have changed "-9%""Worst 1-Year Home Price Change- from 1980 thru 2009" values were "-22% (first quarter of 2009)"Could someone help me to understand that?

I understand that people do it, but fundamentally they are two very different things.

But the fundamental difference is that brokers have no financial stake in the transaction.

Also, the fundamentals still support an uptrend.

You can learn some of the most basic, fundamental, very necessary skills by applying your self to this trade and make a better wage.

I would rather try to get rid of the lousy system than have to sympathize with the victims of it or hope for volunteers to change it at its margins.The fundamental contest is between freedom and bureaucracy.
