How to Take Advantage of the Booming Real Estate Market. Yes, Booming

I think the author is right. The negativity and cynicism on this board is getting annoying. This is not for everyone, but if you have the means and skills to fix up good-condition, good-location houses and rent them out, I think you will do very well for a considerable time. You don't have to hit the exact bottom. Housing is down a ton. Very few new houses are going to be built for quite a while. If we get a major inflation scenario, as I expect, appreciation will allow some of that "all cash" to be financed out for further uses.

This is the "buy low" time, and the tone of the comments sound like what you hear when everyone has given up.

Disclosure: none, but currently researching similar possibilities.
