The rehab expert at the M5 I went to boasted that he would guarantee a 100-200k profit on a flip all you had to do was commit to a few weeks of your time at a boot camp and part with $12,000 for his fee.

Makes another call to his ultra-marvelous-Realtor, asks her a few questions about things she has updated him on umpteen times, and says "oh, sorry for the last 60 seconds or so, I wasn't listening" so he makes her repeat herself, for his own sick entertainment.

Charlie Swindall aka Gladhatter here from beautiful hills near Clintwood Virginia USA.Bit about me is we are the last of the the traditional ultra custom hand made hat makers in the world.

The skyscraper design will be similar to something from Dubai and will boast 360 degree views towering over surrounding resorts and sea.

Do ultra cheap wal mart cosmetic updates and then flip it for a profit.

my two sense is, really go out and while you're in college - take real life "classes" in the street while also going to school in the college.that is everything i am about.at work in the past 5 months i boasted $55,000 in sales with the total being $155000 between 4 people. the top seller being the owner because... well he just has more experience and he's there more. but i can sell anything.the real estate certificate i am attaining here at college is only 4 classes. i'm incorporating that into my schedule with my mechanical engineering major classes as well as business. so its kind of complicated.i wont be able to get my brokers license for two years because 1. i dont have the correct study guide and utilities nor the money to pay the $800 i have seen for some.

Not to boast, but I do exactly the same thing as before I achieved wealth...except: I don't get up too early.

If that amount of time is less than 2-3 months, you're probably best to stay ultra-liquid, meaning a savings account or money market account.If that amount of time is likely 4-12 months, you're probably best to use a short-term CD (though I'd still leave it in a savings account).If that amount of time is likely 12+ months, that's when you can start considering alternative investments.

You do have to watch those HOA fees, as they can get very high, particularly in the kind of properties that boast the amenities so popular in the short term rental market.

Reinforces my belief about being ULTRA conservative in my scope of work/rehab estimates.
