The most important tool for this activity is your business card, which you should have several copies of available at all times when other people might be around.

They will end up being sold as HUDs or in some way like HUDs.Do you have a link or anything about this proposal?

Can't hurt to do both, point being is don't be sold on realtor hype - but the local realtors no doub thave great knowledge.Perhaps do it in the reverse order so that you have more petinent local questions to ask the realtor on the bus tour.Local REIA is a good suggestion as well.If by emerging you mean not in your traditional big metro hubs and areas that are growing in jobs and population, I tend to think and hear alot about Missouri, Colorado, Alabama, the Carolinas, and of course Texas (but when so many people are touting texas it makes me wonder if prices may be a bit inflated - perhaps it's just BPers that are privvy to the "Texas Train")Nothing like bringing life to an old thread..

An almost identical house right across the street recently sold for $52,065.

That said, I have worked in and out of Vietnam for the last 20 odd years and I have actually bought and sold an apartment in HCMC.I was looking for a place close to our office by Tan Son Nhat airport and one of my local partners invited me to join her at a new condo development open house in Thu Duc, 15 mins from airport; 3 buildings on the Saigon river.

I am new to real estate and very broke, can I please get a copy of any Robert Allen tapes and/ or books or pdf copies of lectures for "educational purposes ONLY" and not for resale.Thank you in advance

(i.e. a neighbor owned the property previously, and sold it off - but didn't want a sky scraper built next to him, so he put in a height restriction).If its in the deed, its called a Deed with a Restrictive Covenant in my area.It also can be restricted outside of a deed by a recorded separate agreement.

Good MFHs are usually sold strictly on a cash flow basis, from one sophisticated investor to another, so real opportunities can be rarer.The benefits you list about having everything under one roof are correct.

I have 20 comps, all sold since January, all within 5 mi. that average $196,943.

I have a set price in my mind and NOTHING will make me go over that amount.I am determined to pay pre- bubble prices on what ever property I purchase.the few homes that have sold, that I have been tracking have sold as REO for .50 cents on the dollar.
