Getting Started with Fixer Upper & Rental Houses (Video)

Friday, September 10th, 2010

I think that buying fixer upper houses and turning them into rental properties is the easiest way to make money in real estate. You can do it in your spare time and still work your 8:00 to 5:00 job. And, rental houses can create a steady new income stream, that could even allow you to retire from your regular job, as I did.

Low-end market houses becoming affordable for first time buyers, and Weekly Blog Roundup

Friday, February 29th, 2008


The real-estate slump has an upside for first-time home buyers looking to spend $200,000 or less. As median-home prices continue dropping, the supply of homes for sale in the much-coveted low-end market is swelling. That’s good news for those of us operating fixer upper house businesses.

The subprime debacle, foreclosures and “short sales” in which a buyer offers less than what is owed the bank, continue to drive Phoenix real-estate prices down. That, in turn, makes more homes than ever affordable for first-time home buyers. Bidding wars on “short sale” properties with multiple offers are breaking out.
