Any help is apperciated...I am young and willing to soak up the info...and FYI- from all the forums I have been on researching...this site def has the most knowledgable people!!

Its always good to familiarize yourself with the tricks of the trade (because there are TONS) to not only protect yourself, but your investment.A few ways to get involved are:build a relationship with a developer.find ways to service what they need like:Offer Title Services at a discountOffer brokerage serviceStart a Retaining wall, fencing, irrigation companyif your an engineer offer to take a second look at some plansIf your an architect do the sameIf you are an attorney offer some advice on contractual obligationsIf your an analyst, draw out some cash flowsIf your an accountant, offer to help, create JE's Adjustments, filing, etc.If you have a knack for construction, get out to the sites and look around.If you are good public speaker, get in front of the County officials and pitch a project to the county.Look for the meetings in the county and attend a couple of hearings for development approvals...its public.If you are a banker, look at the deals, contact the developers in your area, go meet them, offer services. etc.Development is about getting out there and putting your ear to the ground.

Welcome to the site.

Heard about this site through a podshow and decided to check it out.

Visitors can do custom searches that they can save, receive automatic emails with info on new properties.

Also, one thing that somewhat concerns me is that I'm trying to find average rental price for the building but I can't seem to find much except this one ad for a studio that shows up everywhere (on all the rental sites).

This is an amazing site with wonderful resources.

I would like to know from the more experienced investors on this site what your investment strategy is in this changing market.Will you still be rehabbing & selling, or buying & holding?

If you doubt my words on this please search the archives on this and other investment sites!

All of the "free credit report" sites I've looked at seem to be scams that want you to join some service.Also, I have a very high paying part time job right now that I pretty much lucked into but am thinking that it would be a good idea to work in a real estate office or mortgage company or as an assistant to a real estate agent or something like that while I finish school so that I can learn as much about RE as possible in the next couple of years, but all of those types of jobs pay about $10-$12 per hour and I'm making $20.00 per hour now.
