Rustico- I agree, it’s all about the deal. I would never dream of buying and holding in this market as I believe the bottom is much further off and deeper than most think. If I were shopping for my own residence, I would wait a couple more years. But for deals, I’m hearing all the activity is really going on at the low-price end of the market. I guess it’s pent-up demand, because it sounds like first time buyers are jumping into the market. They’re finally getting a shot at something they thought they’d never be able to afford. This is causing me to investigate this sector more closely.

No doubt there is a huge shadow over the Market and now over many people’s personal finance outlook because of the threat of layoff.I am almost a 100% percent sure mine actually improves from here on out.Anyway, I thought that scary stuff is supposed to signify bottom feeder time? I won’t undertake any project that could hurt much. That in itself really is enough of a hedge.If I get smacked around I’ll just say “no mas” for a while.Not gonna walk into a knockout punch. Anyway and proably luckily for me, I won’t buy anything for at least a year because of this house I am building without pay.Let me know if you come up with anything else regarding working what’s out there. SDR and I have communicated ,in emails, about starting an ongoing thread like ” best deals out there”. I still don’t think we are collectively in the mood for that… maybe one day? None of us can buy them all, so why not put it out there if we see something that might work for someone?
Lots of investor stuff on SDCIA. Do you post there? On the housing threads, maybe Piggington posts will always skew towards and people looking for their primary,which is obviously a different game for most.
