Real estate investing in Las Vegas?
Filed Under investing | 2 Comments
Louie asked:
I’ve been been told that Las Vegas is the fastest growing city in the country, so it’s a great place to invest in real estate. However, I see a lot of vacant homes in Vegas, and lots of lots of new tracts of homes being built with few if any buyers, signaling that the area is getting overbuilt. I’m also seeing that Vegas has very low wages, and that the economy is heavily dependent on entertainment and tourism, which will undoubtedly diminish with the coming recession–could someone convince me that Las Vegas is a good bet for real estate investment?

Question about real estate investing?
Filed Under investing | 7 Comments
m2cdlr asked:
just wondering, i know there is alot of people who wish they could invest in real estate as it is a great investment market. I wish wondering if you would invest in a company that invests in real estate for you?
So like lets say the company has all these listings of different real estate projects they are going to buy and you can pick from one. So maybe there is 100 acres they are going to buy at 100,000 dollars. you would be able to invest 1000 dollars in this property threw this company, so realisticly you would on 1 percent of the propety threw the company. then maybe in a year the company would sell the property and get 200,000 for it. you would then get back 2000 dollars. 1000 for the investment and 1000 dollars profit.
would this be something you would do to invest in real estate or you think others would do? of course it would be a legal corporation not like some side business.
I am just wondering as myself would love to invest in realestate but dont have the money.
Thanks!

Is it really possible for me to start real estate investing from outside the state you want to invest in?

mytfyne79 asked:
I am currently deployed to Iraq and I have been wanting to start investing in real estate for sometime now, and I would like to get started from out here if at all possible. When I go back to the states in December, I still won’t be going back to that state that I want to buy property in for about 4 months after I get back. With the foreclosure market being kind of nice right now, should I wait?

Question about real estate investing??

fatdog asked:
I know that we are in what is considered a “weak” house market. Would now be the best time for a beginner to a aquire properties, not a bunch but just one for starters. I would like to use the buy and hold stratgy. I’ve never owned a home myself ,so I would like to buy a home live in it for a few years(and learn more about real estate) than rent it out and purchase a duplex or possibly a 4-plex and just keep acquiring propreties to build a real estate porfolio. Would this be a good start to accompolish my goal of one day being a successful real estate investor.

Real Estate Investing????
Filed Under investing | 2 Comments
dtown23 asked:
My fiance and I are looking into real estate investing despite the market right now.. We are mainly wanting to do business as a company (LLC) that gets private grants to purchase foreclosed properties outright and fix them up. Then possibly re-sell them using owner finance if we can’t sell right away. Or possibly holding onto them for rental/lease income. With prices the way they are, is it smart to try and buy and fix up these properties as long as we can purchase them outright and not have a monthly mortgage? We’ve already found a grant writer to get us grant money.. Please advise.. Thanks..
