They said it greens up very late around here and then fades out very early.Everyone I've asked about oats looks at me like I have two heads.

The tenants waste your time, money, energy, and have NO prode of homeownership.

I gave a talk last Saturday at http://www.meetup.com/NEWPORTBEACHINVEST/events/23...and over 25 people were there, great energy and was really fun to share with the RECEPTIVE GROUP!

Norman Podhoretz , the editor at large for Commentary magazine (I recommend that you take a look at this magazine even if only online) said it best “ Creativity represents a miraculous coming together of the uninhibited energy of the child with its apparent opposite and enemy, the sense of order imposed on the disciplined adult intelligence. â€Self esteem and self confidence are also at stake.

My target would be to make at least about $5K per month from rentals and at least $15K per fix-upper, doing about 4 of these each year.Do you think it is a reasonable goal for someone with very minimum RE experience ( but a lot of enthusiasm and energy, and of course some cash in hand) ?

We all know that in the end more taxes will be forced on us in order to "be green" or whatever.

Follow them.If you are able to proceed without legal representation you should first attend several court sessions to see how others do it.Even so, around here Magistrates run their little fiefdoms as they please -- athough you can certainly appeal a ruling should you have the time, energy, money and willingness to piss the Magistrate off.

With all luck, we can buy about 3-4 properties/year at this rate and, so long as I made wise choices, stay in the green if even $100/house.

As with any business, and maybe even more so in real estate, having priorities is crucial in determining where our energies are best and most efficiently focused.
