Very few people ever look are the listings.I think you are in a space that most of us don't recognize.

I recognize that (in the equity market anyway), it's quite difficult if not impossible to time the market and time in the market is more important than trying to time it.

You need the bank to recognize your increased value so you can unlock the equity...or you'll need to sell if the bank doesn't want to play ball.

If forehand knowledge can be proven failure to disclose or misrepresentation could result in serious legal liability to the seller.

Now that I've recognized the mistakes I made, I can change up my approach and focus a little more in the better neighborhood.

The appropriate amount of equity would be judged on experience; I would happily work with someone with a little less cash on hand than myself but who has proven experience, and connections.In all honesty actual experience in the US market is what I lack.

That's like saying because 90 percent of investors fail REIA's should not exist.Hopefully some agents that come across this post will recognize the benefit of a group and connect with me, then we can help each other not become a statistic :)

It has proven to be invaluable for me as an out of country investor in Detroit to learn and pick up sone invaluable contacts.

History has proven that jobs evolve, so I challenge you to look at this differently.

Feel like the train has left the station here in Denver and I am not on it, so want to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can to be able to recognize a deal and act on it if I find one.
