I read today that because of decreased demand by 3%, and increased supply by an unsaid %, key oil economists predict gasoline prices in some areas of the nation could reach sub $2.00 levels by this weekend.

Not only do they make money working the land, but also buy charging people to do things like run around in corn mazes and the like.I was just curious what other activities people create for this "agritourism"?

I just finished my first weekend of it and breezed through the first exam, because it didn't cover much more than simple definitions and fair housing laws :wink: .

I am a weekend carpenter who loves remodel work.

They added a foreclosures page this weekend.

I see not much activities in six months or 3 years -- Cash Flow is monthly payments receievd against promise to pay or contract -This could be like an Owner Financed Mortgage Note when he / she sold the house and carried back a mortgage.

I am the son of the business and I've handle all the daily activity for the last 9 years - Dad rejects any change and I am just about ready to give up.(4 full time employees for 500 units).

The work-life separation sounds a lot like a life of imprisonment with evening and weekend furlough.

If you are good enough to make 5K a month wholesaling...what I call the "short money"...you're missing the bigger picture of the real estate business.The long money...the continue cash flow from owning a free and clear rental property whose rents continue rise with inflation...is the big payoff of real estate.Let's get real...if you find properties others are willing to pay you cash for...you just sold away a lot of expertise and effort for pennies on the dollar.Get in this business for real and quit chasing the "fast but short buck".Or at the very least, stop calling it "investing"...Take some words of wisdom from Warren Buffet:We believe that according the name 'investors' to institutions that trade actively is like calling someone who repeatedly engages in one-night stands a 'romantic.'

In the meantime I am actively investing in RE and also do taxes and other accounting services for RE professionals, developers, investors and landlords.
