Oh what a mess has been created in the real estate market. Foreclosures, short sales, job losses and no end in sight. What caused this situation?

The cause can be summed up in one word: GREED!

The residential real estate market was doing well. Prices were going up, interest rates were down, people were moving up and in many cases, keeping their old homes as investments. Homes were appreciating at a slightly above normal pace, but nothing out of the ordinary. So what happened?

"Gold Wrapping Paper"

I received this from a friend who had a choice to make. It said that I had a choice to make too.

I've chosen. Now it's your turn to choose.

The story goes that some time ago a mother punished her five year old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and she became even more upset when the child used the gold paper to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.

I am working on the purchase of a real estate investment that would be converting units into condos. They were originally built as contos in late 1980's, and when the market dropped, they converted to Apartments.

Total cash investment would be $1.5 million. Looking for people who have $150K to invest. As the rentals expire, they will be converted and sold. One year profit on the $150K would be approximately $125K.

For more information, and a prospectus, just reply.
