Right because married guys never turn out to be gay
If you're married you're not gay. What's not clear about that?
RED ALERT RED ALERT
LIBTARDS MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS!
Investment RE is a different beast. It requires a lot more work than sitting online and issuing buy/sell.
Everyone is different. To most average folks investing in RE is buying and renting it out. That's not really an RE investment. Real RE investment takes millions which I don't have and makes good returns, and I'm sure no one on this board participates in that either.
Robert buys rentals, E-man same thing, some fella who likes to go by the name burritos does the same. They aren't investing, they are just playing with some low end RE. Now if enough of us can pull our money together for a real investment, that could be something.

Ok, so if a man is married and has documented sex with his wife, then he's still potentially gay?
Documented sex? Are there films of Tom Cruise having sex with one of his wives? That's a serious player man.
If it's Katie Holmes, I want to examine the documentation.
why is it every time idiot Liberals want to appear to be something other than insane communists they start acting like this ridiculous cowboy character?
'a feller by the name Burrito' ... idiot, go back to the gay bath house faggot.

I'm confused. What's a faggot? A cigarette? And why does he need a bath?

Aw. That's just wrong man. One size doesn't fit all.
When everyone is talking about it, that means it's almost over
I agree. When everybody talks about it, something is fishy. Something going to be lifted out of fundamentals again. Somebody is going to lose Money or Mind.
1987- Real estate double every year
2000- Everybody was giving stocks advice
2006 – Real estate is going up to the roof, buy now
A year ago- gold, gold, gold
Hell, 3 mo. ago FB was the best investment, everybody were talk about it (18.25 today)
Gays leading the appearence of straight lives is so common the gays have a word for it, "beard." "Katie is Tom's beard."
Ok, I got that but that doesn't make for a Gaydar, i.e. "Oh look ... that good looking, in-shape guy is with a woman. He must be gay."
Otherwise, you'll then have an inverse stereotype for a married hetero man being fat, balding, and ill who's stuck with a nagging wife. "Oh look ... he's fat & ugly, gotta be straight!"

Massachusetts is a lot easier; we have the South End of Boston and Provincetown MA for open homosexuals and Northampton MA, for lesbians. But in all honesty, I don't think the South End is safe to live in anymore. Provincetown, however, is a gorgeous seaside peninsular region. If it were a straight destination, I might even consider moving there for the grand ocean vistas.

Actually, I was more interested in examining Nicole Kidman :-) !

Only if it was old documentation from the early 1990s. She's over 30 now, ewwww. Actually, she's over 40 now, double ewwww.
Dan, Nicole Kidman may be a vampire. She looks pretty good for a 40+ woman.

You're thinking of Kate Beckinsale, the only woman almost 40 who still looks good, and who plays a vampire in Underworld.

Don't forget Raquel Welch, now in her 70s, and clearly looks like she's in that mid-40s category, talk about the eternal cougar :-) !
funny vid.
unshaven clown!! hahahaha
i can see this election coming down to abortion. its the only issue simple enough to get the dumb ass 'swing voters' to actually express an opinion.
I bought a house and have healthy retirement and cash savings. I work and I save. Somehow that seems to work out just fine and dandy for me. If anyone else has some sort of conspiracy-filled, whatever investment ideas.... go for it. Hope it works out for you.
It is all very distressing to me...I'm just a simple guy who likes yoga, biking to work, and eating a healthy vegetarian diet..
You forgot hanging out with your dog on that list...

Very funny, and I thought you didn't have a sense of humor although they're kind of dry. It must be from the Arizona's sunshine. :)
I bought a home... then another and another... 13 total so far, 2 more under contract short sales... I remodelled and rented them all out...
then, the bottom end of Phoenix caught fire, and prices for these homes went up 30% and more...
Bullshit.
"Ok, so if a man is married and has documented sex with his wife, then he's still potentially gay?"
No, he's potentially bisexual. There's gay, straight, and bisexual. Bisexual should not be categorized as either gay or straight as it is both. Here's Kinsey's scale on that topic:
Bisexual should not be categorized as either gay or straight as it is both.
It's pretty gay.

Hence, when the MORONS start jumping headlong into the RE market, the SMART money jumps OUT.
Would you say morons jumped in during the bubble because of people like Carlton Sheets? Would that be an indicator? There's some little weasel on TV now (forget his name) but in general I don't see too many Real Estate for Dummies programs out there right now.
Refinance them all, pull out all that equity and buy 20 more.....
I F'ing dare you!
That would not be a wise move now. At least the 1st half of your suggestion is correct. Refinance them all and put that money under the pillows. The RE ship has left the dock. There is no reason to throw more money into the RE market now unless it's a screaming deal, and it can still produce a positive cashflow. Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with sitting on cash and collect 0.25% interest rate annually.
Here in Phoenix, the mini boom is already over. It isn't stopping the flippers from buying and attempting to rent or sell. I live in a high demand neighborhood where the "for rent" signs are lingering along with the "for sale" signs. Yet "investors" continue to buy and refurbish, some spending lots of money. Let's face it, really savvy people with money don't put it in residential housing. It lacks one of the basic requirements of a good investment.....liquidity.
Those arguing about Phoenix may want to do a little research on Chandler and Gilbert, AZ. These areas have had large increases in list and sale prices from Spring until now. Both cities have made CNN Money Magazines lists of Top 100 places to move @ #50 and #33. Google it!
These areas are low crime with low unemployment and excellent schools and colleges. I know several Californians relocating for those reasons. The area has long been desirable to Canadians and Midwesterners looking to escape cold Winters.
I'm talking about traditional sales, not short sales, REO's that are receiving multiple offers and their prices are being bid up with multiple offers. Most traditional buyers don't want to risk buying a bank owned home with possible defects. Short sales take several months to close and with prices soaring why would a bank settle when they can sell it for more money in a few months?
Gee thanks for the racist, tasteless cartoon. With colleges it's all about perspective. I'm in Orange County, CA and CSUF has cut many classes and is subpar education for the price. UC Irvine has also had a lot of cuts and prefers the tuition of out of state and foreign tuition to instate students.
I have several years before my oldest attends college, but I'm well aware of the college debt bubble and would rather my kids live at home and go to a nearby college or University vs. take on six figure debt and then spend a lifetime endentured to debt repayment.
Thanks Robert for affirming what I heard from my sister about CGCC.
Anyone trash talking AZ should spend some time living, working, and paying the high price of CA (especially OC and LA) then you realize that you have very little left over to save or plan for the future. The weather is great in CA but the pubic schools and pubic universities are a mess. The whole State is going bankrupt.
BTW, U of A has one of the top Geoscience programs in the country.
I've been tracking the Chandler zip codes, and it is true that listing prices are up, but at the same time, sales have fallen off a cliff here
Yeah, but listing prices are up!
Nobody is buying them, there are a glut of rentals, and dum-dum thinks he's a millionaire!

You could not find a better investment between mid 2010 through the end of 2011 than low end real estate. Relatively low prices, record low interest rates, and the fact that the mainstream had not yet been fully let in on the secret. For the smart ones (or lucky ones for that matter) that got in during that time, congrats on the move.
Fast forward to 2012, inventory has reached inexplicably low volumes, prices have surged, and the secret about real estate investment is out.
Case and point... I sit at the family table at dinner, and the topic is real estate investment. I go to lunch with co-workers, and the topic is how to become a slum-lord. I go bowling with some friends, and everyone is talking about buying up low end real estate to rent out. I cannot believe what I am experiencing. It's like everyone with a stable job is all of a sudden a real estate investor. It's not just for the upper class anymore. My secretary bought a damn rental property this year in the Bay Area for gawd's sake!
It will be interesting to see what happens after the election and how real estate responds.
Don't get me wrong, with the rental market also surging, real estate is still a good investment today, but it was a great investment 12-24 months ago.
Waiting patiently...
