Mortgage Calculator

If it works to target distressed properties, it seems like it would work regardless of the direction of housing prices.

Why not open a fund with a 3-5 year lock up, and simply use the money to invest in distressed real estate in California, Florida, Virginia and Washington, D.C. Granted, I believe that housing prices will continue to decrease, but that is why you place the lock-up. Also, the only reason that the people are foreclosing is a one off event, and has little to do with the value of their property. Real estate is not my area of expertise, so please correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't this seem like a profitable long-term investment?
