I'v noticed the investors that have been investing for some time adjust strategies in the last couple of years to create balanced portfolios with high value property in the capital for growth and security while hedging against interest rate rises, mortgage criteria changes, taxation changes and the general economy by matching one or two high yield investments outside of London to help balance the books and to protect / ensure profitability from their portfolios no matter what the temporary market conditions throw up.Talk to lots of people, fellow investors like Richard are invaluable sources of knowledge as well as the online portals.

My name is Scott and I live on the North Shore of Boston, MA.

After 4 months on market, we found a renter that was on a temporary job assignment for 18 months.

Originally posted by Eric Michaels:...Second, bankruptcy can't remove tax owed....That is correct - but bankruptcy is often still used as a delaying tactic, since there is this thing called an "automatic stay" that happens with bankruptcy declaration, effectively putting a (temporary) halt to any legal proceedings that the bankrupt party is facing.

If they were in pre-foreclosure, the bankruptcy gave them temporary protection and the foreclosure was suspended.

But it was always under the belief that this was only "temporary" and we just had to work hard to get away from that. 

I'm wanting to get started on my first rental property but unfortunately can not afford anything in my back yard (California). was looking into out of state properties around the 80k range (which is the max I can afford if I'm being honest) taking into consideration if I have a vacancy and my out of state asset turns into a temporary liability while maintaining my current California living expenses what are some good prerequisite I should do before i dive in?

The property is just the temporary resting place for your cash/equity until said time it grows enough for you move it forward into exponential gains. 

No mention of partial payment, asking landlord for temporary reduced rent, nothing.

Frequently it’s a temporary issue and the person would have needed only a couple of weeks to make it up, but then the late fees start piling up.
