Get involved and start to engage in the conversation happening here.

It feels great so far to be involved with this, making the jump.

I've been involved in real estate since I was a child.

We look for the foreclosure for the great deal, but unless we can do some good then really we are simply part of the problem.We are starting to do deals in Australia that have been around since Adam was a boy and they don't involve bank finance but offer a means of structuring a sale and a purchase to give the seller what they desperately need, while at the same time giving a buyer what they need and can't get - a house!

Are you planning on getting involved in the US real estate marketplace or focusing more locally?

I'm glad to hear from others that those deals and the people involved are getting investigated and in some cases convicted.

When I first started out investing in real estate, I was quite fearful of getting involved in a "Bad Deal".

You need cash reserves to cover these unforeseen expenses.There are a bunch of people involved here.

I am currently a licensed realtor in Nevada, however, a colleague of mine has been working on a deal that involves land in California.

However, since this bubble involved a HISTORIC runup in prices, I think you can reasonably expect things to be much worse this time.In addition, our country is at or near a crisis point.
