Market areas like California and Florida, 2 states that have been hit hard from this housing bubble burst, are still being bought and sold with lots of money being made.You just got to know what you are doing and how to do it.

It just felt like I had hit a brick wall b/c I didnt know to get financed or how to get credit.

First they want me to buy long term care insurance and they hit that hard.

Is it possible to get in contact with the bank directly and form an offer before it hits the market?

Matthew hit is right on the nose and it's so important, save that money.

I am looking at 1-2 family rehab properties in Northern NJ and down the Shore.

I'll only bring heavy hitting, serious investors through an occupied property.

Im new on here from northern ohio looking to get started in the exciting world of real estate and hopefully getting to me fellow investors from the northern ohio area

Thank you Michael, the maket here is up & down right now some areas have been hit pretty hard... yet i have been able to find a few good investments.

Whoever hit my neighbor's house (nowhere near a bad section of town, by the way) must have cased it and knew exactly what they were doing.
