I was just browsing some recently sold foreclosures in GA on www.realtytrac.com and there are still some good investment opportunities out there.

I have to giggle a little, sometimes. We all are likely aware that there’s a number of large hedge funds and private equity firms buying property to get better yields for their investors on Wall Street or pool of backers.

Even a well run real estate business with a good reputation and with a foresight to weigh up possible risks can still run into unexpected problems and setbacks. Skilled real estate investors buy houses and resell them so quickly for a return on their investment so that any costs incurred are residual and easily absorbed by the profits.

After starting out in real estate business, a few successful transactions … (1 comments)
