If any number is below that a big angry red cell pops up on the excel chart and the property is a no go or the price needs to change.So the conclusion for this property is that it would have to be acquired at $205,000 for it to meet my criteria.

Brandon, you could make 500% on puts and calls with pork bellies, selling TVs or cell phones, many things, if you know what you're doing.
Timothy W. Children are getting strip searched at the airport

For frequent flyers going through the body image scanners a lot, the risk is too much radiation and cancer.Captain Dave Bates voiced the union’s concerns in a letter published by The Atlantic late last week.Bates asks that members be aware “that there are ‘backscatter’ AIT devices now being deployed that produce ionizing radiation, which could be harmful to your health.â€The move follows the detention and suspension of an American pilot who refused to be scanned.Captain Bates suggests that pilots refrain from being put through the scanners and if necessary opt for a pat down by TSA officials instead.“We already experience significantly higher radiation exposure than most other occupations, and there is mounting evidence of higher-than-average cancer rates as a consequence.†Bates’ letter states.Earlier in the year, scientists warned that the machines constitute a potential health risk, noting that the radiation given off by the devices has been dangerously underestimated and could lead to an increased risk of skin cancer.Despite these fears, the blatant violation of privacy laws, and the consistent lies that the authorities have engaged in over capabilities of the machines, Janet Napolitano, head of the DHS, recently announced plans to expand the full-body scanner program even further.In the U.S., travelers can refuse the body scanner and opt for the pat down, however, this option is not offered by the TSA, rather the traveler must declare that they wish to “opt outâ€.A recent New York Times report describes the humiliating turn of events should airline passengers exercise this right, with individuals being singled out and prodded, probed and poked by TSA agents in front of everyone else queuing in the security lines.New pat down procedures have recently been instituted by the TSA, allowing agents to use their fingers and the palms of their hands to feel around breasts and genitalia.

I agree with Will, however it's your money and you might be prepared to accept a smaller return on your money, risk and effort than the next person.What makes better sense, IMHO, is to develop your own investment criteria, sort of like how the crab fishermen use a sizing device to quickly determine if their catch measures up.Another way to learn, quickly, is to buy for other investors.

So, I have spent a little extra $'s on the Nest products with an Internet On The Go hot spot device in each home.The thermostat looks great...but does not bring in additional revenue : ( It does allow me to advertise the "smart" device though : ) And it also allows me to control the thermostat remotely if the the property became vacant.Their other product, the Nest Protect (co/smoke detectors), allows me to see if the batteries are still working in the units remotely and can get a notice if an alarm goes off.

Abdenour Achab Has anybody here acquired an AZ TLC property worth $30,000+ ?

IMHO the better strategy is use defaulted taxes as a lead source for finding opportunities to buy from principals and those with fractional interests or secured creditor claims.Unlike tax liens (or deed states) clearing title becomes an issue that must be addressed and is entirely avoided if you merely use the list as a lead device
