The threat of government intervention has many alternative lenders concerned.

Lots of good training videos for western state foreclosures.One if the challenges is the constantly changing laws and government intervention that makes it more difficult for the investor and lenders alike to stay current with compliance.Good luck and dint skimp on the education as it's ultimately your best ROI.

Now here's where another greater risk comes in: The city often will not appreciate the tenants of the park: As in constant police intervention called among tenants they learn to know by name, etc.

I know their will be closing costs etc.. but if the plan is to hold this house long term, $214 more cash flow a month seems worth it.Do have tenants in the house however, so getting the property cleaned up would require some intervention.

The difference in returns is not significant enough to justify taking on risk, especially with the current unprecedented government interventions in recent years.

Checkbook-control IRAs give you the ability to directly manage the IRA assets without intervention of the custodian.Pros: You can diversify, invest in outside the stock market where you can get better better dealsCons: Responsibility to do your own due diligence of investments and adhere to the tax rules

So I just don't get it...PS: @Scott Trench - I think I speak for all of us here; if Allison's emails are your favorite, you need an intervention in a big way.

How in Sam Hill does anyone get to freeload and squat that long without legal intervention? 

@Ryan Kelley I've talked about this on a few other posts as well but there will be long term ripple effects due to government intervention in the real estate market by this moratorium.

Ah...more "stimulus" and gov-mint intervention.
