By Chris Clothier on Fri, May 28, 2010

When investing in Memphis Real Estate, Lending is no obstacle
By Chris Clothier on Tue, Apr 6, 2010
Last week I dove into the subject of pricing and how you can buy high quality investment properties at price points that would have been impossible two or three years ago. However, that’s not the only reason now is the time to jump in the water whether it’s your first or fifth property; in the last 3 months we have seen investment property financing open back up from several of our lending partners.

By Chris Clothier on Mon, Apr 5, 2010
"With foreclosures mounting every week, is it time to enter into the Memphis investment real estate field and purchase properties at discounted pricing?"
This is a question I get asked on a daily basis from first time investors looking for advice on when to enter the investment real estate market in Memphis, TN. Most are facing some sort of self-made obstacle from information overload to wanting to wait for the "best" time.

By Chris Clothier on Wed, Mar 31, 2010
Ryan Flannery has been running the Memphis Invest rehab teams in Memphis, Tennessee for the last 3 years and continues to a fantastic job rehabbing distressed, discount investment properties into beautiful cash flow investment properties. While we wouldn't call rehabbing an art, it definitely takes skill, knowledge and a little flare to make properties shine on a budget.
