If you care so much about what the rest of the world thinks about this country, maybe it's time for you to join them.

But hey, why should we care.....they were "security" and brandishing a weapon at a polling place is common to every election.

My end result: I want to start a program, non profit, helping homelss people, especailly the ones who are mentally incabable of getting a job or taking care of them selves off the street and into proper care and help.

I would look at FSBOs, properties on the MLS, auctions and estate sales, properties that are going to sheriff sales (need to be a little careful here), REOs (through a realtor of course), HUD homes, etc.

Be careful on the guru courses, as they often charge way too much and only give you a piece of the puzzle in an attempt to "upsale" you to spend more.You can also check out my website for info.

I am hoping to meet some people here that can give some advice on properties, rehabbing, pitfalls to be careful of with lease options, and finding financing.

These people on this site are very successful and are willing to blog and give you information for FREE because they care about other peoples success.

I appreciate any guidance on what I should look out for initially, as well as tips and tricks from any of your past lessons learned.I wish everyone here, who cares as much to have read this, success.

I asked If he would take 85K in 1 year. within the next year I would pay him $100 a month to take care of property taxes, I would install new floors, repair drywall, paint in and out, new appliances and light fixtures throughout, new windows and build a custom deck, all at my expense.

Financing is a moving target and one we're watching carefully right now with all the government intervention.
