I can probably swing it with cash but was wondering whether this was even possible/legal.

And we also have larger swings when things are great and larger swings when they aren't.  

I currently work for a coffee trading company and make a crummy 35k a year in NYC, does not really do anything for me.

Hey guys, So a while back I went to a free seminar put on by Online Trading Academy (http://www.otarealestate.com/) at their offices in Irvine, CA.  

Even taking a pay cut to learn the trade will pay off for you.

The new era of international trade; The new era of a super-productive online world; The new era of RE where prices cannot go down; The human mind is a funny thing!

Ideas like the potential purchase price, time for due diligence and how the trade will be settled.  

Secondly, the UCC has specific exemptions related to  certain real estate dealings, such as with installment sales, but such exemptions then fall under other federal and state law addressing such topics in a similar or even a more restrictive fashion.And, now comes the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), they have very broad powers to enforce fair dealing and advertising laws.

Wait for this fall when prices and supply may swing more favorable for buyers.
