No, there are ways to get into foreclosures with very little to no money. Try http://mwdbol.refortunes.hop.clickbank.net
I bought this several months ago and just got my first foreclosure, and i am a student in college. He knows his stuff, check it out.

Depends on what you plan on doing, if its a rental property, you usually need to invest 65% of the cost of the property to be able to make any money otherwise all of you money will be spent paying for the property. Also you have to factor in any repairs or extra expenses getting the property ready for rent. Now if you plan to turn a house, fix it up and then resale, the answer is definitely yes, you have to have a set budget and a time table on when everything is going to done getting the property ready for the flip. Otherwise the time wasted lallygagging around will cost you on the loan you have on the property.

go get yourself some books by Robert Kyosaki. He wrote the Cash Flow Quadrant and Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Among others. You don't need a lot of money, but it helps. ALso, good credit is something you need if you're looking into creative financing. The market is down a bit in Michigan right now, I think, so seller financing may be an option.

It depends on the real estate in your area. I work in the mortgage industry in the Boston area, and although you can get a loan with out any money down, the cost of such a mortgage on investment property would be high. Not to mention you should have emergency funds for things going wrong that you did not think of. Things will always come up,so the short answer is yes, you should have some money set aside, but the long answer is it depends on your market area.

Yes, talke with a local realator and they will be able to tell you, you have to pay for the schooling, license, and every so often you have to take updated courses.

Not a lot, but some. You need a down payment which can be as low as 5% of the selling price. You need to pay lawyer fees which can be around $1000. Depending on what month you buy in, you have to pay back some of the property taxes to the previous owner for the year. That amount varies. So yah, you need a few thousand dollars to get started.

Real Estate is the most expensive type of investing. You should start with a 401k plan and some stock market trading.
