Crap like that is the kind of thing that haunts dreams forever.

Great job United Van Lines.We got to CO (Lamar) on Wednesday late afternoon and fiinished the drive on Thursday, we were both kind of beat form all the "stuff' leading up to the closing and moving.Anyway we were in our house by 3:00PM and enjoying ourselves.Looking forward to seeing everyone at the get together on May 5th.all cash[/code]

There are lots of companies that specialize in making just these kinds of homes, and the cost is not nearly as much as you might expect.

In my quite limited experience, yard signs (the generic kind) have brought lots of phone calls, but all my actual tenants have come because of free ads on Craigslist.

Actually, they'll probably tell you that it's NOT POSSIBLE to find the kinds of deals that we do.Rich

I heard that you need some kind of a license to do short sales.

Many owners use this option, but we also handle many resales, since several owners are also happy to cash out at post-construction prices when the property values have increased by 30-40%, which is exactly what happens with the vacation resort properties.If you have clients who are interested in this kind of investment, then you really do need to try to locate the pre-construction deals that are out there to offer them.

Remember that at the end of 30 years, this property could cost 5 times what it does now, and when the principal balance reaches zero, the place starts to cash flow.I may have the numbers wrong, so plug them into this kind of analysis and see what you think.

Just wanted to know if anyone has invested in property there and if so, what kind of results have you had and was it a good experience.

Well when i first laid out my site, I had loopnet on my mind and set up an area for commercial real estate for rent, sale and all other kinds of stuff as well as a commercial real estate agents directory.But half way in the middle I said to myself, where on earth am I going to find people which will actually list their property on my site even for free, I mean this is such a big area and my site is going to start looking shabby with just empty pages.So for the time being, I let that part slide.
