Investing real estate tips

The best tip I can give you is to be knowledgeable about real estate investing. Listening to the guru's on TV, buying their program does not make you a real estate investor.

I would suggest that you go to the book store and purchase several books on buying, flipping and selling as well as other books on how to purchase distressed property.

One of the things I would not depend on is a real estate agent,. most of them are if you don't have 10% down with a 720 credit score and a pre-approval form in your hand, don't even want to talk to you, so I would pass on the real estate agent, you will eventually meet one through trial and error,mostly error.

I you do not have enough money to invest in real estate you will need several if not more investors to assist you in being successful.

Is Qatar really Booming????

Hey QL...

It's just a simple discussion. Is Qatar really booming? I mean a lot of companies have faced economical downturn big time... I have no references but word of mouth and hearing stuff....(didn't most of us face) I mean the real estate is not in a good situation and might lead to inflation... I heard that the Fashion shops in the pearl are empty always... also heard that the magazine industry in Qatar are facing hard times in advertisements booking....
Job opportunities are less... banks are becoming less flexible and more strict... people are leaving...

What is left?????
Do some of you agree? or disagree... share it!!!!

Trouble with the realestate

Dear QL,
Recently I decided to take an partment on rent from the most known realestate company in Qatar. I agreed with their rent, month depost and agents commission. As per the agreement my contract starts on 21st of this month. A week back I was told that I cant fix my satellite dish and I have to watch only the channels that they have in their building and unfortunately they dont have any of my regional channels. Now I am not very comfortable to go with this real estate. I have already given them 12+1 PDCs and the agent's commission. Is there any thing that I can do to get out of this. Can any one suggest a lawyer who handles such issues, thats my last choice.

Qatar may face a significant oversupply of real estate in 2012 as the expatriate workforce that built the country’s infrastructure begins to leave, according to a report by Bank of America Securities-Merrill Lynch (BAS-ML).

From a short to medium term perspective, the Qatari market can be seen as a safe haven due to its expanding gas industry, government cash reserves and economic reform, the investment bank said.
