I am having difficulty discerning whether I need to be patient and wait longer or if I just haven’t exhausted all the potential resources.

I was thinking about attending the meeting next month as a visitor, but didn't find the website very helpful to discern what actually goes on at the monthly meetings.

I'm thinking i can bootstrap my way into getting a small portfolio of properties with a company philosophy of treating every clients house with the care and discernment I would treat my own homes with.

I would like to learn more about these two areas as they may offer me just the type of opportunities I'm looking for at this point starting out, but then again there seems to be more risk associated with Foreclosure investments and I don't quite know how to discern if a mobile home investment is a good opportunity.I guess I'm just looking for a bit of direction.

Eventually you will begin to discern a pattern in types of transactions and values associated with them.

Then we'll either keep it and rent it out or just hope that it appreciates enough to break even.I'll be able to be more discerning on investment properties once we're settled and I understand the area better.

I would look at the original term of the lease, without options, and if they have been there for 8 years, and traffic is good, then you MIGHT be able to discern that they would want to stay.

You just have to be able to discern the appropriate ones that you feel comfortable working with and that can be as easy as how questions are asked and answered over the negotiating table.

In my opoinon this asset protection for newbies is no better than the gurus selling the how to do it class's.. the reality is if you do not have substantial assets that are liquid or have very discernible equity you have little or no risk of losing them..

Where do we want this to go, we're not exactly sure yet, honestly, but we know we are going to be discerning investors almost over-evaluating opportunities to make sure they meet our personal criteria should we go this route.
