    Hotel/Real estate investing - with no capital, is it possible?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Very true, the same thing can be said with property prices over here, but they seemed to have found their bottom and are slowly appreciating back again, at a more reasonable rate that is. Which is why I must have a margin of safety, by purchasing the property at below market price. That way...

    "So if it's money from people you don't know, you are more careless with it? Good luck getting investors." Biophase, Although the way I phrased it might give that impression, that is not what I meant. Lets say you are a property flipper and you purchased a property at a reasonable price, made...

    Hotel/Real estate investing - with no capital, is it possible?

    REAL ESTATE 
    hmm, perhaps I used the wrong word. You are right, nothing is free. But I assure you I am looking for more then just a commission, but without any of my own capital it is not easy and the whole purpose of my thread is to find a way to allow me to own equity (worth millions) in commercial...

    Hotel/Real estate investing - with no capital, is it possible?

    REAL ESTATE

    What have you got to lose?

    What have you got to lose was the question that got me to shift gears and start thinking seriously, for a long time now I have been beating around the bush and making excuses as to why I shouldn’t start a business or make a move on an opportunity ..I was very good at pointing out the problems...
