DeeGreen asked:


There are tons of ads for homes that have been defered to the lender. How does one detect a scam? I know the current market is crazy, but is $2000/mo. for a 3 bedroom, rent to own, no credit check, no money down likely to be BS? I want to be in a loft within 2 miles of the beach in LA. Is it possible for a working student? Should I believe what I am seeing?

anarudner asked:


A local realtor in a gated community averages 1 sale per month in that community. is it better to list my house (water view, 1 mile from the beach and listed below market price for 2 months with another realtor) with him or to list by owner with 5 % comm to the buyer’s realtor?
3 other properties have sold during that time in this gated community at a higher price. PLEASE ADVISE!

1031 Real Estate Exchange: when is it beneficial?

May 20th, 2009 by Dirtguy | 2 Comments | Filed in Renting & Real Estate

SG asked:


I was recently confronted in regard to my FL condo (I owe $213) to exchange w/ a Myrtle Beach condo ($150). I am trying to sell/get rid of it to avoid future foreclosure. I have a permanent tenant lined up in SC, whereas I can’t even rent out on mine right now in FL–so I’m currently taking a big loss regardless.

How does a 1031 work, specifically when I owe more? Will I lose tremendously or does it wash even in the exchange process? I guess I’m confused as to how the titles & money owed are exchanged.

I’m trying to make it out of this unfortunate investment without drowning in the current slump! Would this exchange be beneficial to me?

chrissmcguiree asked:


Is there anyone out there that has done this. I want someone to talk to that has. I am looking to buy a condo or house on the beach that produces rental income. Please e-mail me or respond to this if you know of even a website I could check out. It seems to be a big secret.
