I made a big thread about this subject in PAL. If you've got time, you can read it here.

Unless you're going to be a real estate agent [as opposed to an investor], with a phone glued to your ear 24-7, I wouldn't worry so much about social skills; providing that you have a good sense of common courtesy, respect and manners.

More importantly, engaging in such work would only help you build your social acumen... as long as you go through with it.

I've been seriously considering putting some of the money I have 'accquired' over the years into a real estate investment scheme just like the ones which have been described here. Seems like a good way to legitimize my income.

You don't need a real estate license, people do this every day.

You don't even need money down, many places provide financing up to 100% of the homes value. 

I've been in the mortgage business for 5 years, and I underwrite files for people everyday who do this.  The only way finance companies deter you from doing this is charging prepayment penalties.  But, most places will give you a higher rate, in exchange for not having to pay a prepayment penalty. 

My opinion is, but as many multi families as you can, and research the neighborhoods first, to watch the trend of property values.  And try to buy property with tenants in it already.  Then there's no worrying about who you'll rent to.

When ti comes to investing, theirs no market like real estate. The returns as a whole out way all paper investments. It's just important to know what you're doing and like everything else research it first.
Take care

Find your local foreclosure auctions and go to them....However, don't buy from them unless it is a real good deal....wait and watch what properties don't sell and make a note of the bank that got stuck with the property. Then, watch your local paper for the bank to put the properties up for sale. If it doesn't sell right away you will probably be able to get it cheaper than the foreclosure price...typically a LOT lower. Thats where you make your money.

No, it's quite legal. That's what my parents have been doing. They bought a fourplex about 15 years ago for 150k, and now it's worth over 500k. Then they mortgaged that bought another house. You don't make much money if you sell it right away though, you have to wait for propery value to go up. In about 20 years the 4plex will be worth around a million, and I get to inherit it!

Nice thread resurrection.  Interesting to see what people were thinking about in terms of real estate in 2005.  Bet they would've liked to know how THAT turned out...
