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.

I have purchased a house in a low income area of my town for 9000.00 The house as is appraised for 35000. I am in the process of renovations that may boost the value upto the low to mid 50s so why won’t any banks touch me?
Great way of bringing in the income Melvin.
