Try doing nothing and just watch that money pour in!!!

I've been watching this thread with some interest but have purposely not posted until now.

I am watching several properties - and some of them have appeared multiple times on the county's foreclosure list (i.e., the same house has been posted for foreclosure on April 3, June 5 and July 3).

Another thing to watch out for, though it's probably not that common, is tenants paying inflated rent.

For what ever reason the lady decided that she was going to exit through the window.

Matthew,Thanks for the added perspective.People need to watch out when they assume a double close will work and then they make a binding offer.Be prepared to walk from the earnest money or have a back up plan.John Corey

So those would be great as you would not have inside opposition.5th watch their listings that you know are REO's and when they get near the 90 day mark bid em low as it is a point where a lot of times the listing is about to expire, and sometimes you can get a steal there.Just some suggestions.

If you attract too much attention they will be watching for when you slip up.

I don't have a mentor, nor a family that takes me serious hell they even think what I'm doing is a joke,and laugh even more.Their best advice is get a job/join the military nor anybody I can actually count on helping me.I don't really have a friend my age,that actually has the same entrepreneur spirit as me.Basically they all have same mind set getting a job,partying,getting drunk,not giving a damn about their future in 20 years, killing time like it has no value to them.Learning from all my business failures is that I dont carrying it out in the end,I usually give up when it get's tough.After reading "Rich dad& Poor dad" reminded me what I'm fighting for,just gave me more motivation.Just everyday get's more hopeless,and more negative thoughts battling positive thoughts.What frustrastes/angers me to the core more than anything, is my greatest talent is creativity,I come up with several business ideas that can make me a fortune,but can't do anything about it,and watch such great ideas go to waste.It's like watching your house you built with your bare hands,broke your back building it being burned down to the ground.Also when something so simple to achieve,but yet I only have myself to blame because I am the one who makes it difficult I guess.I keep telling myself,the harder the struggle,the greater the pay off.I keep asking myself what the hell am I doing wrong,but the answers just don't appear.I just want to know what all those millionaire investors will do when they go back to sqaure one and only have 5k to invest in,I ask myself what will they do.What will you do?

It might have more impact.If you do get the book or watch the DVD let me know.John Corey
