    My Idea: $150-250k Investment Property... Possible in Irvine?

    Awgee: $50k (or whatever down pay) comes from liquid assets (cash, bank accounts, etc) Business Banker is basically the relationship manager that handles my accounts. It isn't a BofA or Wells Fargo where you go in and sit behind a different "banker's" desk. I consider myself a client...

    3225 Watermarke sold for $150k? How?

    Probably not this property in general but I was very curious to see whats going on. I know one of these units went on REDC auction last year starting at $100k and I wonder if this one was it. $150k is a heck of a deal. Probably too good to be true though. Was just wondering if anyone had this...

    Does Rental Parity Indicate a Time to Buy?

    My thought is that REO/Auction property gives the best chance as long as you have the time/resources to repair the property.

    Taking a loan against your equity.

    If you have a sound investment opportunity elsewhere that will earn you more than the 4-5% opportunity cost (interest), take as much of it out as you want. A 100% owned home is a good amount of *wealth*. But if you want the opportunity to generate *cash flow* to convert into more *wealth*...

    Anyone been watching the Towering Inferno at Marquee Place?

    Is that the people who complain or the offender? Guess someone bought a unit to party at =D Wonder how long it would take for the HOA to BK and the project to implode.

    3225 Watermarke sold for $150k? How?

    How's the lawsuit and fire alarm situation coming along? Definitely would be curious of the updates. Anyone with the Lexis access? I lived at Villa Siena before and alot of times the fire alarm is caused by drunken bastards who think they're funny and/or pissed off residents/guests who...

    3225 Watermarke sold for $150k? How?

    Theres probably alot of background that people may or may not know about the building. Maybe someone can look it up? :) I'm sure its probably in the sale docs. The impression I get is that Watermarke as a community/management company seems more solid compared to the others up and down...

    3225 Watermarke sold for $150k? How?

    Was doing some browsing, and saw this property on the sold list for $150k. Does anyone have a way to see if this property was bought by a bank or private party? $150k is not bad of a deal for a 1BR apartment knowing how much IAC 1BR's cost :) Wondering if I can snag up something like this...

    How many people are living at an IAC property?

    I'm in the same boat. Living by myself but in a shared house (and its benefits), was planning to jump into a home purchase. Guess not =D Looking on rental-living.com for a mid/upscale 1br.... prices seem pretty high (I pay <$1k right now). Are they fairly accurate in terms of the pricing...

    Denied in Irvine - need a lender

    Given the $$ you say you make, why not wait a few months will fill your piggybank full of down payment $$$ making it impossible for them to refuse you?? The house is going to be there later this year, and perhaps all next year.

    How do i report short sales fraud? Help

    This is like trying to save a sinking ship... If they can't afford it and their way of staying in the home is to shortsell to a relative, stopping them is going to force a foreclosure. Besides if the relative has a different last name, then its even harder to prove... You don't know how they are...
