bought the Carleton Sheets course in the mid-90's!

Mostly what lies between Irving and Plano, but lately eying the mid cities real close.

The complex has been completed for about 1.5 years and the condo market in Boston has been pretty bad since mid 2008.I haven't purchased RE through an auction before, so I was looking for some insight if anyone has any experience with them.

Part of my real estate experience comes from this: I managed my mother's rental unit for eleven years from the mid 90's to the mid 2000's.I decided to look into real estate investing after seeing an infomercial on t.v..

For example, while I wouldn't want to be holding commercial property for short-term appreciation or long-term cash-flow right now (I think we will see a big drop in commercial valuations over the next 24 months), I think this might be the best time in decades to acquire mid-term or long-term rentals.For those who are careful and conservative, I think rehabbing/reselling is still a great strategy, and those strategies that are related (wholesaling, lease options, etc) are still very viable.Unless you think we're in for a total economic collapse (and I'm sure there are some who do), it's never a bad time to buy real estate...you just need to ensure that your exit strategy is appropriate for the market.

If all goes well we should be closing by mid november.

It appears as if there are three categories of online accounting solutions: (a) those focused on very small businesses, (b) those focused on small-to-mid-sized businesses and (c) those focused on somewhat larger businesses.The services that focus on the really small businesses are not suitable for my use because they do not support cost center reporting, which is essentially for a flipping business.

It's just political posturing right before the big mid term elections.

Mid score was 804 last month (did a refi on my personal residence)...I think this was the highest...

They would like to buy a home, but what would cost them $275,000 here in the mid-west for a nice home, will cost them $800,000 + in Melbourne.
