I am a newly licensed agent, but have the desire to invest (cash) in properties that are near foreclosure. However i have been wondering what Loan to Value Ratios produce more of a "Home-Run" when looking for investment property. Is there a rule? Perhaps I should find an owner with a higher LTV on their property because they would be more open to selling, does this make sense? Other factors worth considering? Thank You Much

    If you want to learn to invest money, you first have to understand the basic concepts of what investing is all about. Working for an employer is a form of investing that at a simple level we can all relate to. You invest your time and effort for the reward of a wage. In this case you (hopefully) get a reasonable return on your investment.

    Of course, to learn to invest money the process is different. This form of investing involves putting your money in a stock or bond in the hope that you will be able to receive a greater amount as a result of the action.

    There will be a risk, but you will weigh up all the pros and cons beforehand to minimize that risk and have a reasonable expectation of success. However, when you learn to invest money you do not gamble.
