There are a lot of scammers out there, so-called real estate gurus who will sell you a program outlining how to buy and sell real estate using absolutely no money, but those schemes are unrealistic, almost impossible, and illegal in many states.\n\nDepending on your credit and income, you can qualify for a no down payment loan for an investment property and the seller can contribute up to 2% of the sales price towards your closing costs. So you would need some cash for closing, depending on the sales price.\n\nRick\nwww.fairwaymortgagelending.com

Do not spend one red cent of it. \n\n You did not mention your circumstances so giving advice will be too hit and miss.  \nHave you completed your education?  If not you may wish to invest in that.\n\nDo you own a house or are you renting?  You may wish to invest in a down payment on a house, but do not invest in a house larger than what you need.  A lot of people think they have to have a 3000 sq ft home.  Then they complain about the taxes, utilities, and upkeep. \n\nIf you are set in both of those departments but do not have any investment experience, you do not want to go blindly into investing just yet. Put it into a 12 mo CD for the time being and begin learning about mutual funds. They are your safest bet for the intermediate term.  Do not put all of your funds into any one investment. The key to minimize the risk of investment is diversity.  Maybe $10000 in a fund investing in Chinese companies, maybe $10000 in a fund investing in European companies, maybe $10000 in a fund investing in small U S companies, maybe $10000 in a fund investing in large cap companies. \n\n Get the picture?  Always have a cash reserve for emergencies.

Our bank even offers 100% loans on Investment Properties.\n\nThey are a little more difficult to qualify for, but they are there.\n\nAlso, the interest rates start going up after the 80% mark, so if you are looking for a "cash flow" property, the 100% loans may not work well for you.  It depends on what area you are in and how much you are buying the house for.\n\nIf you are looking to flip the property in a short time, then who cares about the rate.  Just get in, get out and take your profit.\n\nThanks,\nGreg

There are lots of ways to buy a home with little or no downpayment.  Talk to a lender about 100% financing.  There are FHA programs where you only need 3% down and they have a great rate.  Your REALTOR can also write your purchase contract so that the Seller of the home will pay some or all of your closing costs which means even less money our of your pocket.  Good Luck!

The only way to make much money is to earn it then invest it wisely.  I see you posted this in the investment category... my question is if you have nothing (or little) to invest... why would you post this here?  Shouldn't you be looking for a way to increase your income so that you can increase the amount you have to invest.  Anyone who tells you you can make millions without any work or effort (or capital) is just looking to take what little capital you do have from you.  There are many programs out there that will allow you to create an income from home, but any that are legit will require time and effort.  If you are willing to committ to "work" to increase your income... I can show you an opportunity that has helped us to suppliment our income.  I am not referring to a get rich quick scheme... this is a legit business that you can work on your own around your current schedule.  I would not promise you unrealistic amounts of cash... just the training and support to help you to reach your goals... provided of course that you are willing to put forth the effort.\n\nFor more information...contact me through my yahoo 360 page.

There are lots of ways to earn money at home with a very small or even no investment. One way is by doing on line surveys. While these may not always pay a lot of money for each survey, the supply of available surveys is endless so the more time you invest the more money you can make. In addition, while many do pay cash, a lot of the surveys taken will provide free product for testing and free gift cards. \n\nBelow is a sample link and you can do a broad search for these by typing in 'paid on line surveys'. One thing to be careful is that while many of these require no investment on your part, there are also a good many that will want an upfront fee. Until you had experience in taking these surveys I would not recommend making any investments or at least keep them very minimal.\n\nhttp://www.couponmom.com/index.php?cid=88\n\n\nHappy Hunting !!

Well...you need capital (money) to start with so you can start buying properties. \n\nYou buy properties (real estate) and you sell them for more than you paid for them. You might want to learn your local real estate laws and maybe even get licensed as a realtor.

Have you heard of the book Rich Dad Poor Dad? The author, Robert Kiyosaki, has written many books on real estate investment as well as money management. \n\nHe advises looking for undervalued property that will bring in rent that is more than the cost of the mortgage, property tax, insurance, and maintenance costs (i.e. "positive cash flow"). Such properties have become increasingly difficult to find during the real estate mania of the past few years. Don't buy property that is cash-flow negative in hopes of appreciation - that is gambling, not investing. \n\nhttp://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/gate/archive/2005/07/22/carollloyd.DTL

there are no mutual funds presently available to buy investing in Chinese real estate. the reasons are complex: tax, corporate structures, etc etc.  \n\nif you are thinking of investing, consider what you are looking to purchase and where. If it is an apartment in Shanghai, then my advice is to reconsider....if it is retail or an office block, then it may still be a good time.

Absolutely no!  That is the quickest to go banckrupt.\nYou can start by buying index fund, or sector fund.\nMutual is a good way to invest too.

Try these method with confidence interval 95%:\n50% private own business / open your own business or joint venture\n30% realestate, stock, and bond\n20% insurance and bank\n\nthis may lower the risk of your investment. Bank in US has very low interest compared to other developing countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, etc. The interest rate may reach up to 14% per annum. if you like bank and or insurance, try to invest to developing countries. Low risk and better interest.\n\nSamething as realestate, in developing countries you can have very large properties from the same amount you spent in US and the value growth almost 2 times faster tahn US. You may shock what you get from your money in other developing countries. \n\nAbout opening new business, you better seek advise from your relatives and friend. I don't know anything about you and your desire. Sorry

First I recommend, be patient.  No need to make any quick decision(s).  Keep an open mind, and listen to suggestions.  Think for yourself then, and you will make the appropriate decision.  Look at your circumstances.  If it is a windfall, and not needed right now, take $10000 of it and find a no-load mutual fund as an investment.  Then leave it alone and your investment ought to double about every 7 years.  That is what us "little" people do.  A no-load fund means, no fees to buy and no charges when you sell later on.  Hold the remaining $5000 and think some more.
