TeamI have been researching and learning about Real Estate investing for the past 1 1/2 years.

And I do agree with his previous statements that these banks and lenders shouldn't get a bailout with taxpayer money because they made bad decisions in the past.

If I looked at my own portfolio, I have some properties where I literally haven't done anything over the past (almost) 5 years.

How do I get past this fear to keep growing ?

Over the past few years, the consumer was spending money from home equity via frequent refinancings.

Past property delevopemnt manager has filed $75,000. mechanics lien, multiple other liens, etc. would like too hear from past employees. thanks

Also, if a significant amount is owed in past due taxes then this could be attached to the property as a lien.

Equity is a subjective word that is a moving target at best....the housing market of the past 10 months has proven that.

I just hit a road block and need help with trying to get past this.

Primo - you're welcome to the top bunk...lolI have looked into this quite extensively in the past and what you find is the easiest thing to do now a days is actually to "go green".You can buy prefabbed modular homes (made from a variety of materials from wood to old shipping containers).
