The market hasn't "turned around" yet. Those looking to invest in properties should be prepared for the long haul. But what an investment! My mom just recently picked up a 900K+ home for just under 550. She's looking to make a killing in the next sellers market. Quick question since we seem to have a good supply of agents 'round these parts: If I pick up a house from a short sale (yeah right...pick it up right quick...lol), auction, etc., for 500K but the appraisal value is 800K, am I going to be paying property taxes on the 500 or the 800? <abbr><em>Robs last blog post..<a href="http://www.rakebacktakeback.com/poker-blog/?p=27" rel="nofollow">SNG Strategy Pt. 2 - Make money playing Sit and Go poker tournaments</a></abbr></em> Although John’s comment was made back in October, it still holds true.

If your stock portfolio falls 50%, you have 50% less money. If your home value falls from $500,000 to $250,000 you don't loose half the house.
