Carnival of Real Estate Investing: Volume 8

by Joshua Dorkin on January 22, 2007

  

Hi everyone and welcome to Volume 8 of the Carnival of Real Estate Investing. While there are many good submissions this week, only 2 are of any help to real estate investors (I’ve marked them with **). I hope upcoming editions of the carnival have more useful information to help the everyday investor out . . . that’s what this carnival is all about, right?

  • Advice to Equity Office Bidders by Market Poetry
    While I can’t stand that people blog anonymously (no personal info can be found on their blog), I really did enjoy the creativity of this post. I’m not sure that I’ve read other poems about the business of investing. This is a great little piece to kick off the Carnival!
  • ** One of My Favorite Landlord Tools by Anesia Springborn
    The winner of this weeks carnival (I just felt like announcing a winner), Anesia’s article tells us about an AMAZING tool that can really make life a little easier for landlords.

  • ** Buyers lesson part 1 by Eric Medemar
    This is a detailed look at how to find buyers for wholesale deals – a well written article for anyone interested in wholesaling.
  • The Big Picture About Cash Flow From Foreclosures by Steve Burns
    A nice article that explains how to get paid by helping people avoid foreclosure, and by saving their home.

  • What Increases Your Home’s Value and By How Much by Steve Faber
    This article examines how different improvements can affect the value of your home.

  • Real Estate Indicators – Nothing Decisive Yet by Nigel Swaby
    Using current economic news and data, this piece examines how the housing market will trend in the near term.
  • Is Real Estate Calling You? by Katie
    While it concentrates on real estate investing, this article is a very broad piece that doesn’t really tell you much. I think it is intended to be a motivational piece, but never really does the job.
