More forclosures coming in every month in that size and price range and getting financing for those babies limits the number of customers knocking on your door.

Commercial loans often have a "CLTV" or combined LTV limit.

The dollar is a currency and therfore losing purchase power is inevitable.

Everything is cyclical and the U.S. is too powerful and too great a country to languish for long - it will be back.You can stand around and overthink what even a doofus like me can see is an opportunity that we have not seen in my lifetime before and I hope we will not see in my lifetime again.

Max conforming loan limit in CA is $625,500 for 2009, I believe.

My broker tells me cash out is limited to 70% LTV.

I have heard that, as of August 15, Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac have limited an individual to 5 mortgaged properties.

Keep your balance under 50% of the limit at all times, below 35% is even better.

I'm a beginning investor and i see the power of using private funds but i just don't know the proper and legal way of doing this.now i know about talking to people you know, other investors, and marketing to other high net worth individuals, which all of this i would consider the first step in the process.the second step i'm guessing some will say is working out the agreement/financial details with the your private lenders once they say they want to invest (which i plan on doing all this in step one, letting them know they're either going to invest as a lender or has a partner and this is what they'll get in either scenario)but my questions are:1. when do i have to worry about the SEC?

Unfortunately one month is our limit here in the Granite State.
