Property Investment - amins - 06-27-2009 New set of Nor-Cal (Northern California) Investment Properties just arrived on my desk this monring from my sister. PM if you are interested: Please have your requirements set, its a list over 1000. Re: Property Investment - amins - 07-25-2009 Heading down to NorCal on Tuesday. Might be the last time I'm going down this year for property investment, kids due in Sept., but I should get another set of property listings in the fall. Re: Property Investment - Vanraw - 07-25-2009 For me, I wouldn't touch a west or north east coast property with a 1000 mile pole right now. There a good reason the banks are still hording money. Because property values are still at levels way below outstanding debt on those properties. Personally I think the banks and everyone else thinks some magic pill is going to make that 800 k 2 bedroom ranch that is now worth 150k pop back up to 800k. God help us if the government pops into that one. Re: Property Investment - amins - 07-26-2009 Ok. :mrgreen: There is a difference between buying an Asset and buying a Liability: one produces cash flow. Figuring out where you sit in the market and understanding how many assest you need to meet your expenses is the true meaning of wealth: Its not how much money your job pays, but how long you can survive w/o that job. I don't work for an income, i let my assests do that for me. Re: Property Investment - amins - 07-27-2009 I think I missed your point Van, as you did with mine. I assumed those people investing wouldn't be looking for financing for that investment. I'd rather have 100k in 2 rental properties earning $800 a month each, rather than in a retirement portfolio that's based on the 'buy & hold', long term investment style that most portfoilo/fund managers implement (not talking IPO's, fixed income, or cd's, etc). Sorry for the confusion! Re: Property Investment - Vanraw - 07-27-2009 Yea I agree with you. I was just stating the realestate in that part of the country scares me. |
