There's another competitor called o Bandit Signs: I place handwritten signs at and around the properties I am looking to sell.

In the Wagon Wheel approach, we are using the large city competitors as a backstop. 

Competitor has 5 thin pages of content?

Then take it to their competitor to beat.

uwe, congrats to germany on a well played game, although australia is not the strongest of competitors...surpirsed there aren't more soccer fans on here....

There are a couple of "competitor" sites to BP - those will be removed.

They think they are untouchable/ they are too big for their market to worry about anyone overtaking them, they don't work on SEO.. all these reasons combined makes them quite weak.the strongest point why I can overtake them (as well as you) is that their market is still different from ours.I don't recall not once them out ranking my site while I am not even trying to out do them.The challenge lies when your competitor is just gunning for one city or one county and you (me) need to rank 80 cities.

Once you close, you'll need to pull at least one stem (I'd pull both) and bring it all into home depot or a competitor and match up a kit.

You have a competitor here.  

Depending on the competition, maybe dropping it a little more would generate a quick sales.If it needs work, and especially if there are move-in ready competitors, it may require and investor.
