I always entertain the possibility ...I would appreciate opinions on this.

These are my comments and observations and are for entertainment only, not an endorsement for or against any parties.

When desperation drives the car, you will likely hit a tree.Also, Joel made good points to the LTV funding levels, I do think there is a limited amount of guys out there who will entertain the deal if the home has true equity upside.

New casinos seem to popping up across the country and instead of just gambling they are massive entertainment, dining, and retail centers.

has anyone noticed when they open the door to see the house for the first time, if its a 'good' house, it is totally clean, the electricity and water are both on.It's also funny when they say "houses in this area sell in the 140's",,I guess the size doesn't matter to them,, it is good entertainment, but thats what it is.If I started buying houses to keep others from getting them, I would probable be bankrupt in a short period of time, thats how you get killed in this business

Thanks Travis Sperr I don't expect to get rich in just a few years off of real estate, however my thinking is if I am able to live off of my construction business income and every year build a property, I am entertaining the idea of 4 plexes, without taking out any of the equity in the properties and then also use the monthly cashflow to use as reserves and also to keep moving forward with more properties that in 5 years I would have 250k .

Speculation with what if's I guess is entertaining if you're really bored.

I did something entertaining this morning and went back and read some of my posts from when I first joined BiggerPockets, and boy did I know absolutely nothing about real estate investing!

I wouldn't even entertain the thought of trying this 500 miles away!

It's the Rep. who will entertain your offer and let you know if he/she is ready to sell or not.
