    I think, very much like the Rich Dad series, that her books are too repetitive. Good ideas, but not new ones.
    It works well for having multiple streams of income. Maybe that’s why she only needs to have 10 propeerties in 15 years??

    harbinger,
    Your options would depend on how much you owe on the property, exactly how quickly you need to sell, how much you NEED for it.
    You might be able to wrap it for market or undermarket value if you bought at a good enough price….

    As a general rule i suppose the answer is yes.
    I always look to neutral or slightly negative gear my properties. That way if there isn’t a large amount of growth, it isn’t costing me much for the property. If there is growth, then I am making more money!!
    If I had highly -ve geared properties and there was little to no growth I would be worried though.

    I don’t think that 4-10 years is a very long time. Especially when looking at real estate.

    You should look at soundboards.com
    and look up the Arnie boards.

    I think they did have info up at some stage.
    I bookmarked it ages ago. Upon returning it was as you see it now.

    I don’t understand? Why does he need to do this? Or what is he doing it for? [eh]

    Thanks

    …if there is an oversupply of rental properties the tenants will get the last laugh.

    Doesn’t Steve say he rents in the book?

    Wow, you can have your cake and eat it too!!

    I think there should be a new post count providing statistics on the following:
    Useful posts
    Not so useful posts
    Posts in reply to posts of your own
    Posts following up these previous posts
    and of course posts made to boost post count!!

    Elves,
    Dolf mentions in his ‘Real Estate Riches’ book that he has bought 1 or 2 properties out of 20 that he thought had misprints in the ads. $20,000 instead of $200,000. Those odds work for me, and I think it would for making offers on places. If I purchased 10% of the properties that I put offers in for I would be happy, because I offer low.
