I am on the west coast, so I am really green to how life is lived in a town such as Saginaw, MI.

But the investment was so bad to begin with that I think you just have to get rid of it and run for your life any way possible.

That wouldn't be my style, I would just wait until about a month before the auction.....but that's just me.

Instead of making rational decisions, they wait things out hoping life will improve.

i guess i am also holding home equity in high regard but that's only because i'm a saver and don't try to live a lavish lifestyle and am not too worried about needing to pull the money out (even though i know it's always smart to keep an emergency fund). my next investment would be financed by either:1) a combination of savings + sale of current condo2) a combination of savings + HELOC on current condo (but i also understand that there won't be much equity to draw on in 2-3 years)i guess the problem is i really like the area i'm in and think the property will be worth a lot in the future (5-10yrs).

It has been the worst experience of my life!!!!!

So I feel somewhat comfortable in the field (as much as school learning can get me) - but I really would like real-life training.

I've lived in Bristol my entire life and don't know where the heck you can find anything for that cheap.

I am interested in getting involved with investors to help you with the renovations of your projects, and to help me in my life long dream of being an investor myself.

Unfortunately babysitting is a way of life in a lot of forums on the net as without it, spammers prosper.
