I can see where you can make a quite good return renting out cheap distressed fixers JV.

I do hope that you are not counting on a rebound to flip same.

1 in 7 homes nationwide is in payment arrears. As you state, many living rent/payment /property tax/insurance free for over 2 years and running.

The "demand" for REO's is from people like you. Can there be that many John Vosillas? Enough to absorb 1/7th of residential housing? And that number will grow as REO's accelerate next year on.

We know that 1/7th of all homeowners will have bad credit for the next 5-7 years. Where will primary demand come from?
