What to Expect When You’re Investing - Introduction

![]()
Apologies for the lateness again in a recent post, but it is good news as the market is picking up and has been keeping me busy. And since it looks as if 2008 will be a good year with volume and activity of Buyers and Sellers up I thought now would be a good time to start a multi-part series that covers everything that one would need to consider when Buying or Selling a piece of Investment Real Estate whether it be your first investment or your most recent addition to your Real Estate empire.
The series will be titled “What to Expect When You’re Investing” and will be published in 6 separate parts for each side of a transaction for both Buyer and Seller so there will be 12 posts in total. I am attempting to cover any worries you may have in each section so if something is not covered feel free to post a comment as getting a lively conversation going with other investors is always a good thing. I will try and deliver one part each week until the series is complete beginning with Part 1 next week.
The parts will be titled as follows:
- Part 1 - Goals & Objectives - Preparing For the Transaction
- Part 2 - The Search For Truth - Finding a Buyer or Suitable Property
- Part 3 - Negotiation - Tug of War For The Rest of Us
- Part 4 - In Contract - Time To Get Your Hands Dirty
- Part 5 - Closing Time - And Other Last Minute Nightmares
- Part 6 - Beyond The Investment - Preparing For The Future
I hope you will enjoy reading these as much as I will enjoy writing them. Feel free to email me with comments or suggestions in the future and stay tuned for Part 1 next week.
