Today, the mainstream has finally caught on, and courtesy of RealtyTrac has come up with its own name for this subsidy: Vampire REOs.http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-10-03/meet-monster-housing-market-presenting-vampire-reos-which-65-americans-live-mortgageSorry for the length, but would it be frivolous to invest in rentals or REO's seeing as this bubble's about to pop?

Just got an email that the two largest giants of outsourcing will be merging together.I think there's better quality foreigners on Odesk and better American quality workers on Elance.Hope the technology sees a huge boost!

Welcome @John AdamkewitzI lived in Mauston for a year and did much of our shopping at your local walmart.

The vacancy could be high for many reasons, such as: 1) High rent/deposit or screening criteria 2) Poorly advertised to potential business owners 3) No popular stores or business types that might attract regular customers e.g. chinese eatery, nail spa, pizza place, pawn shop, liquor store

Step two, I'd set up shop, with paid security right next to his shed, and blast the most unpleasant music money can buy.

There are always diamonds in your own backyard if you look hard enough but I also plan to invest out of state (eventually) so maybe we can work on something or talk shop sometime.Best wishes,Jonathan

Eric: My advice is to shop around community banks.

This is not something that has been shopped around person to person

Hi guys, I came cross a deal, a front retail shop, 2nd floor 1bed 1bath, 3rd floor 1bed 1bath.

I am very keen to buy this current property however I am overseas for a few months now and was wondering how things would go.I've found a few companies that you can pay to fix everything for you as a 'one stop shop'.
