The only type of real "investing" in real estate is to either be a lender or to own rentals (commercial or residential) a wholesaler acts like a day trader a fix and flipper is improving a house (or a stock or a company) and flipping it; its still trading and always risky.

I'm 22 years old I own my own small trucking company in Florida I built with cash NO credit my heart is there but I also a binary options trader = stock market I'm still learning fast but I like real estate cause I like helping veterans and old people get into homes also really insterest me in real estate is I want provide to nurse homes ....that's me I'm new so if anybody have questions

Takes 6-10 just to trade real estate!

I'm 25 years old and for work, I'm a trader for an asset manager in the area.

For EX: If the tenant wanted sole access to the deck upstairs but the lease does not state that he receives sole access with his rent rate, would I use the Change in Terms of Lease Addendum stating that I approve of him having sole access to the deck upstairs?

Let's say you put your goals on paper (for ex: I want to make 60K this year as a wholesaler), and you work out the numbers (that means 5K per month, which means ## deals per month, which... when I back it out... goes to ## phone calls) then you don't have to stress when someone tells you "no" because you know you're hitting your numbers and the next "yes" deal is right around the corner.Do you know which aspect of investing (wholesaling, rehabbing, etc) you want to focus on right now?

The great billionaire market trader Paul Tudor Jones talks about a 5:1 risk/reward ratio.

How it works is as follows, say on a US$100K investment:investor/lender converts CAN to US at today's rate $0.78 costs approx CAN$130K (with trader commissions)investor/lender then locks in to buy the CAN$130K back at today's rate, cost is generally 5% of amount or in this case would be $6500the forward contract is generally good for one year, so be sure to sell the property within that timeframe since if you do not fulfill the contract, your 5% option is forfeitedso let's say the CAN dollar goes to $0.85, then you'd need approx US$110K to repay the CAN $130K, but with the forward you are locked in at the $0.78 so only the original US$100KThe only downside is that the FX trader commissions are approx $0.005 on both the buy/sell transaction so you're down a full cent on the trade.  

You could form your own lending entity ( seek counsel on this and for ex set up an LLC).

I know the stop-loss is a core tool for most professional traders, I am curious as to how those of us investing in index funds might use it.
