Knowing that people had invested for centuries even at those high past rates, I wonder how this can be a long term game when rates go back to these 80/20 loans. 

He questioned himself whether he needed to make that much money and continued to default on promises he made to his wife for spending more time with the family.By the way, he started to buy real estate in Seattle area last year.According to him, he never invested in RE in US before but he couldn't afford to ignore this rare opportunity of the century.

When you e-mail out a property it could be the “Deal of the Century”, but if it’s in a neighborhood your buyer doesn’t like he or she will not even open it!

Hey @Kenneth Ziembo,I came off of Active Duty in Fall 2010 and got hooked up with Century 21.

I am not too impressed nor dissapointed in their business structuring, though it could be better than the typical 20th century style lol it is not horrible either.

Most properties listed on MLS are not the deals of the century however there are ALWAYS life events that occur that will push one to sell even if they do not think they want to.

The property had a Century 21 sign in front of it so this is a dead lead.

You have spent this entire thread basically accusing realtors of perpetrating a MASSIVE FRAUD that has caused the single largest economic downturn in nearly a century...and then you reveal that you are "good friends" with these people?!?!?

but hard to find anything under 90k that does not need 13k worth of updates to bring it in the 21st century 

Real estate is not rocket science, not hard, the basic functions and concepts are centuries old, there isn't anything "new"!
