My father, who just passed away this year, helped start the company called Century 21.

Otherwise, try a personal finance book from this century instead. 

Look into Century 21.

Listed several properties with Century 21 and then returned to college for a Business degree.  

However, looking at recent history (last half century), the risk was being in lower priced inner cities of the rust belt like Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo and not in higher priced markets like SF and Manhattan.  

Some buyers are looking for the steal of the century with a property.

call title or escrow company they should have a direct feed on this .. or if you one of those old fashion states that is still stuck in the last century     and if the county website is down you may have to go to the tax collectors office and pull it up there.

The old White Flint Mall stomping grounds will probably be the same, once their century long pissing match with Lord & Taylor is figured out for good.As I said in another post (and some got butthurt cause it’s the truth) Bethesda’s golden years for retail investment purposes are gone for the most part.The opportunities will probably be more towards Silver Spring, Bowie, etc.

Get in touch with Mark Parisot at Century 21 in CDA.  

Hey BP,Just to give you an idea of the marketplace I operate in, we have a population of about 50,000, we have rental licenses with density and minimal property standards, and we have a lot of converted "turn of the century" (1890-1910) houses that have been converted to dups or tris.There has been some chatter about the city possibly requiring separate gas meters for all units.
