A few years ago I told a friend that if she ever decided to sell her condo that I would love to buy it (cute 1bdrm with attached garage)...she recently announced she selling it.

Or my new favorite a news article that shows a graphic titled "price reductions" showing a US map and most major cities show in red numbers -21% or -29% making it look like prices are dropping and "it has begun.." comments, when in reality these are the % of listings that had a price reduction before they sold.If you are a new investor and you are in the market crash camp, why do you think none of the seasoned investors are selling?

I have some cute Trader Joe's cards and I could certainly just write from the heart, but I didn't know if there are any points I should include or avoid with my first contact? 

Kind of pricey, but they seem to like it.And yes it's aggravating to have to alter your well made plans.And if it's really bugging you one day, just remember this video of a Tiger Mom having to feed (3) very cute big baby tigers laying out in the dirt in the African Jungle.You will have a fridge again, and probably pretty fast too.Good Luck!

Hi Jason,I'm sure she will do well in school, butsince you have emotions involved in this decision vs an arms length transaction; have you thought about things like:How much are you willing to "take a hit" if/when your renters (daughters friends) can't pony up with the rent, bring (5) huge "cute" huskies into the place, paint the rooms wild colors, etc...This business works best when it's run like a business, all I am saying though is watch out for your own emotions regarding being too soft (or too hard) because you are "Dad".As in too hard, I mean something like, maybe she gets a new boyfriend and he's a Total Loser, will you hold the rental over her head threatening to kick her out?

They have graphic designers that are pretty inexpensive, fast, and reliable.

Please don't go for something that is cute, trendy or cheap.

I bought a cute little condo in Biloxi, MS. 

This is a great graphic!

The downtown area is really nice also with lots of cute little restaurants.
