What is the name of your state? ny

I am about to sign a contract on a coop and reviewing the financial statements.

It is carrying approximately a $100K deficit. There are 25 units in the building and the annual maintenance revenue is $150K.

Why would there be a deficit? Is a deficit of this size a concern (bad investment/high risk)?

Thanks in advance.

Oooh, since we're on the subject, I have some questions too. What's your thinking on telco stocks in the next quarter? Too risky? Also, what do you predict will happen to the REITs if the current bubble bursts? Will they bear the full brunt of a market collapse? Would it be wiser to continue to invest in properties directly while the market is still "hot"?
