| If thats what you want to do. You can even buy stock in a home builder or mutual fund that invests in real estate. Even international real estate. I like Fidelity, the biggest. There is a homebuilder etf, bunch of stocks, called xlb which is home builders. Go to fidelity or Vanguard, #2, and click on products. Fidelity has a better web site for me, but hey, make them compete. |

| Do not buy a stock, PERIOD. Get into a no load mutual fund and you will be much safer. I had 10K in World Com when it crashed and I was left with zero to collect. So one stock scares me. Stick with the mutual funds period. |
