As an new investor the information i receive from other investors such as yourselves is very valuable to me and others like me.

Re: the other tools that members receive, there is a remarkable opportunity using private investor money (REIT's) to joint venture the purchase of REO/short sale properties at 50-55% of FMV, and re-sell to retail buyers at 85-90% of FMV.

That is the sort of stuff that tends to draw the attention of law enforcement authorities like attorney general and district attorney.

You would include the rental income at the prevailing exchange rates when received and similarly translate your expenditures.

Pictures - that is often the first question you will receive.

Actually, slightly miffed is about the best description of the worst response that I've received.

I have always paid attention to and been interested in real estate for a very long time.

This day in age, lenders are happy to receive timely payments so I have yet to hear of a lender actually enforcing the due on sale clause.

However, I would also like to receive some compensation from my marketing if a buyer I find chooses to buy immediately rather than doing the 1 year lease option.
