I don't trust the big national guys to not use my donation to pay for a nice expensive retreat for their executives.

I forgot to mention, another reason people like to lend to us on our deals is because we invite them on an investor appreciation retreat to Costa Rica where they get to stay in one of our Costa Rica properties and connect with other investors.

Four bedrooms including the spacious master retreat with gorgeous remodeled bathroom.

(Pressure washing with some kind of moss remover) With a treated wood deck you'll need to retreat it every 2-4 years with some kind of sealer/stain. 

Thought it was a recent podcast... this couple does goal setting retreats... anyone know what I'm talking about and can point me in the right direction?

Supposedly, 4 women wanted to all leave THE RETREAT which the largest salons in our town of 50,000.

However, you aren't selling because of the recession, you would sell because the original reason for your investment didn't pan out. 89 to 92  in the SF bay area was a brutal market that most investors on BP are too young to have experienced.. but you had some serious retreat in prices.. this happened not only because of over heated market.. but the earthquake and the war.. it was not uncommon to see 50% devaluation on HIGH end homes.. from Marin county all the way down to Los Gatos etc..

Great for a nice secluded retreat. 

Has anyone heard of Luxury Retreats?

Keep in mind, prices have only retreated on an average national scale twice since the great depression.
