It isn't said enough that the current market offers excellent buying opportunities across America. The barrage of reports constantly speaks to the weaknesses in this current market where real investors are buying, and contrarians such as myself are carving out a niche that relies on experience and knowledge. Take a look at this recent spot my co-author did on the #1 business show in the nation, Your World with Neil Cavuto. We were able to look at some areas across the country that provide solid buying opportunities. http://www.findingforeclosureexperts.com/radio-television-32.html If you are considering buying, we'd recommend speaking with an experienced realtor who (10 comments)
I was honored when Jeff Belonger asked me to write this review, until I realized that I was also following Tom Burris, and Sarah Eubanks, who did an excellent job on their insight into the mortgage industry for their respective weeks! I will begin by saying that there is so much talent on this website alone, that we could probably solve the current real estate environment a lot faster, and a lot cleaner than our politicians on both sides of the aisle can. At the very least, if they merely listened, we'd have a soft landing, not an all out crash and (29 comments)
First I want to say that after posting on Jeff Belonger's clever post pitting the Realtor vs. The Loan Officer; http://activerain.com/blogsview/292076/Which-one-is-better , I was thinking of a post regarding auctions that I'd put off for a while.

Simply put, they are wonderful marketing techniques that sell 1 or 2 of several hundred homes at (9 comments)
I held back from posting this previously, but at the end of the day, fair is fair. Regrettably, everyone is looking for an excuse as to why the real estate market is performing the way that it is. I had the pleasure of speaking with MSNBC about this topic while on my recent trip to New York City. Before clicking on the video can you guess how little (or how MUCH) this statement is true? http://www.findingforeclosureexperts.com/radio-television-18.html Please share your thoughts after you've seen the video. How will you judge the interview? I very much look forward to speaking with you. (42 comments)
A couple of months ago, I asked the question in a previous blog, titled is 'Wamu wise or stupid?" Here is the link: http://activerain.com/blogsview/222979/WAMU-are-you-wise I am extremely impressed that the public relations machine at Wamu has effectively prevented so much of their information from htting the media. Wamu, the nation's largest savings and loan, announced on Friday that they would cease issuing mortgages, commonly known, as the Option Arm on all refinance transactions until further notice, and have changed the parameters for purchase transactions to require a minimum of 20% down. Typically this kind of news would not be a (23 comments)
