There are properties in the Wahiawa market that offered a lower cost if entry but many would need some work to get into.Overall the market has been growing at a steady consistent keel since we started watching it in early 2009.

Neighbors don't like the property so they watch it like a hawk and when the required time passes they get it posted so the buyer knows and can't claim ignorance.

I don't really want to have to be in a situation to have to do that, but I also think you could get in some trouble in the Bay Area by carrying weapons to collect rent (if it were viewed as an intimidation tactic...Anyway, lessons learned, to watch out for the over-zealous inspector!!

Was just watching a pretty moving show on Dateline about the poor sections of New York .

I then started to watch a few youtube videos from various financial planners and advisors, and they said Yes, there "is a way to do it" but they didn't expand on it.

I have read articles, books, watched videos about Investing and now I'm a little overwhelmed.

I would watch the podcasts that are of interest to you; go into the learn section and select appropriate subjects, get involved with local real estate investment groups and actively participate in this forumn and you will continue to achieve your goal.

This is being sold by an elderly lady, who needs money.

Now you can sit on the side track and wait and watch all the other trains go speeding by and say to yourself I am going to do that some day when I have everything in place.
