I was in Long Beach, CA last week and boy it was a nice vacation. I visited my cousin in Valencia and saw her wonderful home. She even picked me up using her new Mercedes C- Class. It must be nice hun?!

We got into talking and she tells me that she is seriously thinking about real estate investing. She went through a class (one of those ‘Profit in Real Estate’ classes) and is really gung ho in getting started. I thought she meant looking for properties to flip and wondered if the current market is suited for that at the moment and she tells me that it will always be suited regardless of the market because she looks for properties all over the nation. She was even looking at Las Vegas homes because she believes that the market there is still good and if ever, she will be able to rent the house that she buys.

I am thinking now whether I should join her in the business. She sounds very knowledgeable about different types of mortgages, loans, and properties. I do hope that she also has the sixth sense about location. We all know, location-location-location is the kicker. If not for location, real estate business will not be profitable at all or would it.

I am still debating but I’m sure one day, with enough capital I will surely do the same. My mom raised all of us kids through her owned properties. The rent sent us to school, clothed and fed us. You can never go wrong with real-estate if you have your wits about you. At least, that is from what I know.
