Now, if I play my cards right and work hard and have some preparedness to meet opportunity, then maybe I will be able to "talk" about the luxury of diversification.Having a marketable education and/or skillset can go a long way to keep you afloat in good and bad times.

Not foolproof, but works most of the time.I read a lot of recorded documents in order to find people and have found what you say to be true.

Kim, yes you can.Brian, the lead came from a direct mail card offering a cash deal for the property.

Automated post cards may fit nicely into your budget, just remember that the response rate is such that you'll need to send far more to achieve the same results.

If I set a goal to find 3-4 sub2 deals in the next 2 years but I don't find any that are a 'true deal,' I'm ok with that.

The inheritance thing might be true but I have found that the time it takes to actually get those inheritance funds can take many more months or a year longer than they think they will get the money.

True the same could be said with real estate...but I'm not sure if the loans (No Doc/Stated income ) that created the crisis will return.

This is not necessarily true.

Is this true??

It was one of those "if it seems too good to be true, it probably is" feelings.
