Where can I get general “Real Estate” questions answered?
################################################################################ When this board was created, it was initially named “Real Estate”. However, from the very 1st (non-TMF) message, the discussion has been almost exclusively “all things REITs”: REITs, REIT preferreds, REIT convertibles, REIT mutual funds, REIT ETFs, etc. Five years later, the board’s name was changed to “Real Estate & REITs” (the board preferred a different name, but TMF felt it was better not to venture too far from its original, well-known name). Two years later, in mid 2004, the board again changed its name, removing “Real Estate” from the name’s meaning. Real estate questions not related to REITs (e.g., non-commercial rental real estate, your personal home, loan refinancing), may or may not be answered here. They won’t be rudely answered, but they may be ignored. These boards may provide a better place for non-REIT questions: Real Estate Investing — Real Estate other than REITs: http://boards.fool.com/
