Real estate has always caught my eye when watching the markets.

I believe i could cash it out enough to put 5% down on several other properties (Got my eyes on 2 which are running at about 33% of real worth).Any insights?

Start the legal process, generally a 3 day or 5 day "notice to cure", TODAY.Screen people, I don't run credit checks, I don't check with former landlords, I keep my EYES and EARS open and have a long discussion (interview) with my prospects.

My idea is to hold on to the properties for a while with an eye towards keeping one or two for additional income while in retirement...unless I make enough money between now and then, that I don’t have to worry about it!

Lately, my activity feed seems spammed by someone I don't even like but I keep him as a colleague to watch his activity because I know who he really is and what he's really trying to do so I'm keeping a close eye on him.

If you are scared of Mexico then your eyes are sewn shut, they are the least of our problems.

If spot gold is, say, $900/oz, it will cost you maybe $930 or $940 to buy a gold bullion oz, maybe $960 to buy something like an American Eagle coin.

@Jenn Sherdon I have been keeping my eye out on cabins and I think I have finally found something.

It is a mechanical device so it WILL fail and always need to keep an eye on it.

I have had someone from out of state invest with me, but he has come to the city and been inside the properties he's invested in so he's seen them with his own eyes (one had tenants at the time and he saw how nice they kept the place).I have also had investors from AZ and VA see my properties and I am showing someone from Canada my properties and properties in the area this weekend.
