There is a site, or maybe you know of another or a few… but looking for something free too. Where you can date *actually pick out things like the place, the menu, the setting, and see it on the screen, where you can do things you would normally do in real life…. they were advertising some site on tv where you can actually buy real estate… lol almost like you are living in it.

Has anyone who was selling their house actually had the real estate agency buy it from you? and why? Would they offer you a lower price and then turn around and resell it higher?

i live in a college town and there are a ton of rental properties around and i want a peice of that pie. how do i go about buying with little money down

As I understand it, when you apply for credit/mortgage to buy a house for example, they check all your pre-existing debt and factor that in before deciding whether or not to loan you the money. So how do some people own multiple properties?

I’m guessing they do it through a corporation or other business entity?

Sorry I’m a little confused, I don’t understand how it works. I have a hard time even qualifying for ONE mortgage given my pre-existing debt (car payments, installment debt, etc). Could someone elaborate?

Without looking for a foreclosure, how could an investor buy-back the piece of real estate that he just sold, at a better price? Is it possible? After the closing of the deal what possibilities are there for the person to buy back that property, is there a common process to do this? What are some options to do this, if it is even possible?

I live in Washington state and I’m wondering about the rules if any that there may be on my question.

I am planning to do a 1031 exchange. I am looking for rental property (Probably a single family) that would have good income as well as good appreciation. I was looking at Frisco ( a suburb of Dallas). Anyone in Texas or that is knowledgable about real estate head me in the right direction?

I have stock options in private corporations. Can I issue my stock to buy houses and such? If I show promising growth rates and a promising new executive management team, can I “value” my stocks higher than its current value to assist in my purchase of real estate?

have a little extra money and want to diversify my portfolio. am thinking about the netherlands(amsterdam) or dubai, but would love to hear more opinions. thanks

I know that no one can say for sure where it will get hot or cold or dry up or whatever, but failing to plan is planning to fail. So assuming a warmer planet, where might be livable in 50 or 100 years?

For sure the coasts will flood. Someplace like Alaska could be good, but once all that perma-frost melts its going to be a mess. Plus they’ll have black fly problems all year long.

How about someplace in the mountains? With a reliable water supply? What about food? What about electricity?

Some countries don’t allow foreigners to buy real estate, so if that’s an issue I happen to be American.
