General Update

Friday, May 9th, 2008

This isn't really two general updates in a row.  I just didn't want to spend time on the title of a general post.  As some of you may have noticed my blog posting frequency has gone down in the past month.  Truthfully, I just don't feel like taking the time ...

Apartment Updates  I can say that I'm 99% sure that Apartment #2 is going to close in May.  We are about $200,000 short of the $2,750,000 we needed.  Looking at the sheer numbers, its actually pretty amazing that we have $2,500,000 committed into an apartment complex when everyone is saying to stay ...

.ASIA domains Well it doesn't look like I got any of the 53 .ASIA domain names I applied for uncontested.  There have been over 150 million domain names registered so the chances of any simple word domain going uncontested was very slim.  The next step is to go to auction for ...

Another Real Estate Blog - But Different - Well Maybe

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

Overcoming Real Estate Losses is a blog that I've been slowly reading during the past two weeks.  I am mentioning it here because it's one of those blogs that you start reading and you wonder how you just spent two hours reading a blog. The blog starts off with this post: You Lost ...
