Went from 1960's to modern without tearing out one item, and it appeared ALL completely had been replaced quality wise.

But here's one of the photos:http://www.futureofrealestatetechnology.com/general-real-estate-technology/top-10-worst-realtor-headshots/And along the same lines here's a simular post:http://www.futureofrealestatetechnology.com/general-real-estate-technology/what-is-this-title-rep-selling/

Modern and simple, and very much serves the main purpose of defining the spaces.

I know we will all loose with the loss of his technological vision.

Applying green technologies, using passive and active solar as a start when building to suit is increasingly attractive.

That is exactly why they dont do it with the modern textured shingles,,,they dont lay well at all.

Im thinking of putting maybe half of it in stocks and other half in real estate.In bangkok, a newly built mid-end condo, with modern facilities, carparks,for a 1 bed, 40 sqm in good location, fairly near sky train and fully furnished is maybe around 3m-4m baht. agency says i cud get around 22k-25k baht a month but im guessing its prob more like 15k-20k baht. most Thai wages will not be able to afford the rent, but its ideal for expats working in bkk. so the return is maybe around 6% before all costs, vacancy periods and appreciation/depreciation.ive been reading a lot of negative and pessimistic views about condo as a buy-to-let especially in bkk. there r so many condos in bkk and many being built as land is not scarce yet cos old buildings can be cleared and new projects started easy. and other factors i dont know. also traffic is a nightmare and the condos that are centrally located (and most expensive) have one of the worst traffics (altho it wud prob be near sky train or underground which would be ok for expats.keep in mind that i ll be paying in lump sum, wouldnt mind to gain some real estate exposure (im fairly interested in the industry),do you think its worth it to buy a condo in bkk as a buy-to-let?

For example Commercial properties are mainly listed (at least on a national level)on loopnet.com which is the first company to list commercial properties in an online database. ( that I know of)What other technology based solutions can be provided to Real Estate, particularly for private investors?

I think I will go this route as the PMI will not add a significant % to the interest when compared with interest I would pay to get that 20k by other means (student loans not paid off).I have found a house listed at 125k that is a 3/2 1000 sq. ft. ranch with nice updates (granite countertops, hardwood refinish, cherry wood cabinets, finished basement, modern bathrooms, etc.), garage, deck, and an 800 sq. ft., finished, basement.

If you see a person in bell bottoms and a tie dye shirt, you know that's 70's, and if you see a ranch house with a Japanese inspired entry and a 5/12 or shallower roof, with large windows, situated across almost the entire lot with a large front and back yard and a lot of stone work, you know you're looking at midcentury modern- in my area that puts it firmly in the late 50's to mid 60's.
