I want to get us a house soooo dang bad its pitiful, the area is not a good area for my son to go out and play so we have him stay inside mostly unless he is in school...One of the main reasons why I want to get into RE Investments, its a good vehicle to make the money I need and I can also find ways to get things fund, the harder part is going to these homes to fix them up to sell, I have no transportation but I am sure I can work around that, Home Depot does deliver lol...

Germaine Act)You will want to have the buyer sign a 2nd to you so you will have a vehicle to foreclose if they don't pay and you can get the house back.You also need to set their payments up to include P.I.T.I. and PAY YOU NOT THE BANK!

Like Brandon Cohen said, people park their cash here because it is safe or at least a better option than a lot of places or vehicles.

A good 401k is an excellent investment vehicle.

Substitute a house for a truck, use the same purchase agreement arrangement, the same intention of assigning the contract, in the eyes of the state motor vehicle folks, you're a car dealer!

A loan on a mobile home not secured by land is called a chattel loan because the property is movable. 

I can always find another job, buy another vehicle, or move to another house, but I could never replace what my new family means to me.

Depending on size, it could be as much as 40% rental related items (biggest is a 5x10 enclosed trailer), and the remaining 60% would be personal (vehicles, boat, etc.).Is what I've described deductible in some capacity?  

I knew that I didn’t want this to happen with real estate because it is a definite vehicle to achieve my long term big goals.Cut to the point of this post; I’ve decided to complete 5 mini-goals each day.

You need to have as part of your plan, a way to use (invest) your cash in vehicles that will quickly return those funds to you (hence the term use) so they can be used again, and again, and...When you spend it, or use it once, it's gone...and you need to start all over again with new funds.
