I am a forex trader part time, and my motto is value investing.

It's like the market... you have guys who just buy the S&P mutual funds, you have others who research individual stocks & read some sites, and you have day traders.

Just as a day trader might borrow against the box (his portfolio) to purchase more stock, (which is common but you get the idea).Mixing conventional and non-conventional or traditional techniques can become creative, or different types of financing methods.

Might as well throw $10K into a forex brokerage account and trade on 1000:1 margin - at least there's far more liquidity ;)Furthermore, to continue my trading analogy, going from 10% down to 5%, 2.5%, 1%, etc is nothing more than bumping up a margin from 10:1, 20:1, 40:1, 100:1, etc.

My "escrow statement" with RC Realty said nothing about the deposit going to Bill Lange or European traders, yet that's what happened.

Soros was known back then as the man who broker London bank.Jim roger's genius and investment expertise revolves around commodities, forex, and Asian markets.

If you are new to this, I suggest you find a good title insurance company and establish a relationship with them (you will need their services nearly every time you trade real estate). 

There are a ton of "investors", "traders", etc out there today who make financial decisions based on what they "feel" or "think" about a financial decision.

Insurance companies also tend to be more understanding of claims related to weather events (hail for ex.) than losses that are preventable. 6.

Can you buy and trade real estate online and not lose your shirt?
