    REAL ESTATE 
    Zero right now -- I'm broke as a joke after this house! It's the biggest, most expensive project I've ever done. Good news is my Realtor just called to say he is getting "lots of calls" on the house, and already has our first showing confirmed for this weekend! Wh00t Wh00t - Hakrjak

    Motivation for tenants to pay rent?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Are you talking about a motivation to keep a tenant in your unit for an extended period of time? I wouldn't reco doing appliances, because you need to own those to depreciate those bad boys... But maybe you could do a washer/dryer.... If they rent from you for 3+ years, the W/D is theirs...

    Must resist temptation!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I resist buying a new car every year. I'm still driving a 2000, and hoping to atleast get to 2010 with it running good. I haven't had a car payment in 4-5 years now and it's an amazingly good feeling. A feeling that is so much better than that high you get when you buy a new car. I think if...

    Moving to Vegas

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Honestly, having some family in the Vegas area and spending a lot of time there -- I think $250k is way too expensive for Vegas condos unless they are in high-rises on the strip. You can get some massive 5+ bedroom SFR's for that much off of REO right now with large lots and decent locations...

    Moving to Vegas

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Is that a high rise condo? Holy snikees, I've always wanted one of those, but the higher levels have always been cost prohibitive... Like $1mil +... The views from anything 10+ stories up in Vegas have got to be phenomenol. - Hakrjak

    Congrats ;) I wish I had an excuse to move to Vegas. Some great opportunities down there right now -- You'll surely make a bundle buying just about any REO you can off the MLS right now. Looks like houses are selling at 50% discounts all over down there. Cheers :hurray:, - Hakrjak

    Thanks for that link! I definitely need to get a panaramic lense -- I was very frustrated today that I could not get the full shots of the kitchen and Master Bath tht I wanted! My 2 biggest money rooms in the house, and I ended up with multiple shots for each. Cheers, - Hakrjak

    Rick Santelli's Chicago Tea Party

    I love this guy.... His line about "giving something to the people who can carry the water, instead of the ones who are just gonna drink it" is priceless! -- The trading floor is like an angry mob behind him. Video - CNBC.com

    Lamborghini's keep me awake at night

    MINDSET 
    I like this post. Looks like a real lightbulb moment. I do find that once I've invested so much time & effort into *making* the money, it is harder for me to just spend it on frivilous things like cars and beach houses, etc... I think most successful people will be too tempted to reinvest...

    I woke up $30k in debt today

    Exactly... I'd feel a lot better about it if I felt like I was actually getting something for my money... but I didn't see a single provision in the bill to help stimulate real estate investing, and home buying. Something similar to what they did in the 80's when they gave big government checks...

    I woke up $30k in debt today

    And so did you... According to something I just read, each American household took on $30,000 of debt each today with the signing of the new "stimulus" package. Talk amongst yourselves... - Hakrjak

    The Mark Cuban Stimulus Plan

    I like what he is trying to do -- If only the US Government was trying something similar. An entrepreneur fund of $50 billion or so would do a HELL of a lot more for our country than the $750 billion in pork and pet projects that is going to end up happening. I haven't seen the Congress put...

    I need major help fastlane....Its getting to me now.

    Talk to your boss about volunteering to be laid off. Every time times get tough in my company, we have a steady stream of people who volunteer to be laid off knowing they'll get a small severance package, and be elligable to collect unemployment for awhile before they go and do something new...

    I've had plenty of notes bought by Countrywide. They never fail to appear under my account when I just go to www.countrywide.com and login. It usually happens really quick. Cheers, - Hakrjak
