Sorry to say, many of the scams were perfected by my generation.

Just saw this from the Fall 2011 DRE Fall Bulletin regarding a short sale flip with a double close:In the current short sale market, there is a new twist on an old theme when it comes to flipping properties and generating cash for the perpetrators, who oftentimes are committing fraud on lending institutions.

The loan doc service I use generates close to 100 papers, maybe more, that is used primarily for consumer loans.

One unit has heat runs for the common area and pays for the gas for the common dryer and hot water for the washer, so I think this was why they set it up like that initially)Future projects include making one of my one bedrooms into a 2 bedroom to generate higher rent- just needs a door and a closet.

Again, keep in mind what your total investment will be versus he cash flow generated by the property.I've held back on naming specific cities because I don't consider OC or SoCal a good choice for buy-and-hold investing at this time.

There MIGHT be a way to use software to eke out fractions of a percent in returns -- if so, strategically investing tens of millions of dollars might generate returns you can live on.

However the accelerated rate of equity generation is nice as well.

I use Postlets.com to generate nice HTML ads for CraigsList.

This assumes you are able to generate rental increases over time.

Maybe in 75 years after their intro in 2020, say 2095.I could see current generations adapting to driverless.
