Finally got an offer accepted just before Christmas. 

Mine took about two weeks from the day I recorded the deed but this was just before Christmas two years ago, so that delayed it.

It prohibits "live" christmas trees buy does not address smoking!!!)

I have a question, I know of a property that is being put on the market in NW DC after christmas and New Years...the seller is desperate though and hinted that if I could obtain a BUYER that is willing to move forward prior to the start of the listing, then they would go with me.

I'd prefer not to evict anyone right before Christmas.

@Angelo Behar  thanks for the book suggestions I haven't read any of those so definitely gonna grab for some Christmas reading, much appreciated.Yeah the beaches have minor rules when you get to the ones with better waves, especially north shore and leeward side, but all in all everyone's cool if you don't cut them off lolAccount Closed thanks for the books as well.  

So last month...right before Christmas, there was house going to auction that openned at $21k.  

I believe there are opportunities to be found everywhere and in my experience, although market dynamics are important, but its the people in the market drive success.I am looking forward to building my network and sharing in the success the current state of the market has to offer.Merry Christmas from Canada!

We love the Caribbean side and will start our search this Christmas in Playa Del Carmen.

An acrid smoke smell on Christmas,  no hot water when boarding an overseas flight... it happens.
