ED OP:

It is the best market for buying...... but where do you get the money if you were hit hard by the economic recession, depression or crisis?

We think that doing this in right way is great but what will it do to the economy... will this increase the housing bubble???? What do you think? Would you do it? Have your views changed from fix and flip to hold then fold?
