"BUY LOW & SELL HIGH" that's how you make a profit! For instance, my Commercial Real Estate investors have had financing problems like many others because of the Subprime lending industry that kept them from buying, but I informed them like many others to keep in mind there are other alternative Real Estate financing options, eg. Real Estate Investment Trust(REITs); Bond Offerings; Real Estate Hedge Funds; and Private Hard Money Investors that can finance deals that banks and traditional lenders won’t in this present market. PS, Joe Troy,

Foreclosure investments can be lucrative but, they are not for “new” investors or the faint of heart. You really need to be a seasoned traditional investor before you attempt Pre-foreclosure or auction foreclosure investing because the decisions are made quickly usually with limited information. If you are starting to invest in foreclosures it would be best to start with “foreclosures.” If you are not aware that there are three ways/types of foreclosures to purchase then I would begin to research foreclosure, pre-foreclosure and auction sale foreclosures.
