-Redecorating your home is basically a competitive sport in Palm Springs: There is a lot of affordable, stylish stuff to be found at the thrift and resale stores.

Hi, I'm looking to install smart home devices in two of my houses.

OR. you can set your eyes on your goal, work a strategy, device a plan and count on no one, depend on no one and realize that if you want to make it, it is about YOU needing to step up and become a relentless shark, the master of your domain.. 

@Bruce Harding Say what you want about our sports teams, but our RE market for investors is phenomenal.

Their algorithm will look at a homes in your area, but it's a broad area and not easily comparable.As far as rural areas, if there is any type sports tourism (software tournaments, soccer, etc.) you might be able to play that up. 

Julie,Do you think you will get more rent for these devices?

I like that little sport amphib that just came out.. same one Roy Halliday messed up in.. they are built in Davis CA.. and they do their test flying over at Lake Berryessa.. have to wait till they hit the used market and their first round of depreciation.. new I think they are 250k and that's a tad rich for a toy.

You can sign up for Square which is a free credit card scanning system that works with mobile devices.

Also, a little known fact about Birmingham is that Sports Medicine originated here.

As you already know, Scottsdale is a magnet for people coming to major sports events, including the Phoenix Open and Major League Baseball Spring Training, car lovers coming to Barrett Jackson (and other auctions happening this week) and people coming from Canada and across the U.S. to escape the cold.While there is likely to be some form of local governmental policy change, that shouldn’t scare you away.
