And as for the difference between amateur and professional investors. Do you mean a professional risks more? Knows more? Risks a higher % of his or her assets? Is self employed? Chooses hisgher risks? What's the difference??? To say I am 'obviously an amateur' does you a discredit. I suspect I have delivered (in my capacity as commercial manager for one of the worlds largest project management and construction companies) more residential and hotel space in the last 2 years alone than most people will ever deal with in their entire life. Then again I may be 'completely wrong' again. But when I use my own disposable income for property investment be assured I treat it with as much, possibly even more, care than I do in my day job.

So as I said, please treat people with a little respect and you and the rest of us may learn something from each other.
No disrespect meant but obviously you have a problem with this word and the meaning of it!
The forum is more for investors of their own money. Your previous profesional experience is of no interest as it bears no relation to this topic. I am not adverse to risk and take risk all the time. 50 properties in Liverpool. bought and sold at a very healthy profit before any gearing, however the subject matter is Cyprus. You can make money but with the right product. Yes there are a lot of crooks but find the correct product and you will make money,. Nicosia as an example has developments offering the off plan route that will allow investors to be able to sell to locals at a healthy profit.Only 20% deposit and resold within 24 months. There might even be a guaranteed growth financial PACKAGE included for 10%,( backed by AA Insurance co ) therefore giving a 50% profit. These type of deals take time to find and RISK. Only take risk that you can afford to loose.
Are you on holiday or using your employers time to benefit your pocket!!
Have a fun day and if you want to email feel free. With utmost respect of course!!
