I was also surprised to hear from friends of friends who used to work on Wall Street that they have remained in a property the last 5 years that they haven't paid a mortgage payment on for the 5 years.  This is a house that has 4 …[Read more]

For some reason though when people see a property for $10k the automatic thought is to snap it up.  It might be cheap but the consequences can be tragic.  I have american friends that lived in a lovely neighbourhood but the property taxes w…[Read more]
