All of the poorly designed logos and bouncing things in the dock seem so incredibly childish, like something one would find on a child's toy.

To me, this equates to very low risk for RE investments, as I could always cover mortgage payments of vacancies as necessary.My long term goal is to accrue properties that produce enough passive and active income that I can do RE full time and/or only do technology work only because I want to.

I will give you my friends info who is the top producer and the founder of short sales.

There were some incredible deals, houses like that would go 2-3 times that up here in Mass.Wilmington is a nice city and the NC shoreline is beautiful.

So, I guess I am gambling on turning them over and not the income they produce (or fail to produce).

My areas of interest are income producing properties, SFR and Multi-Unit, as well as land Development and Commercial Properties including Office Buildings, and Retail Strip Malls.For the past few months now I have been looking for a Mentor who can teach me the ways of true investing.

There is no real connection between a residential property's value and its ability to produce an income stream as a rental.

But after reading a lot here and reading rich dad poor dad recently I have seen the light that true wealth is collecting those income producing assests.

I wouldn't sign for a 1.4 mil property unless it produced about 21 - 28k in rents a month.

You'll find that most top-producing REO agents have buyer's agents that actually show their listings and deal with the public.
