It was a stroke of luck that I ventured into real estate.

Perhaps...that can all change with the stroke of a pen though.

Not for free, but no cost at all if you're not one of the 70% of the population who will experience stroke, heart attack or cancer by the age of 65.There is a further innovation offered by one carrier who designed a special policy for our company: the cash value is invested in either: S&P 500 fixed indexing as above, a gold index, or the Dow Jones Real Estate index of EFT real estate funds.

I know that it will show smudge marks more, but the touch-up takes one brush stroke and it is done.

As a business person, its about making money, not stroking your ego and telling a buyer to get lost.

If there's any BUSINESS benefit at all to sitting behind a computer screen racking up "ratings" or "points" and numbers of semi-anonymous "friends", giving away useless ebooks, blogging, "internet marketing", posting every random thought you've ever had, and alerting people to the fact you just took a dump and now you're going to walk the dog-- I sure haven't found what it is other than ego, and it really shouldn't even stroke a sensible person's ego.Again, I hope to make great contacts here and do business-- but I'm not counting any social networking chickens just yet...

There is a tendency to broad stroke a "universal" solution when depending on various factors; geography, competitors and market conditions, create isolated results.

Understand this is just a case of different strokes.

Apart from the broad stroke strategies; viz., 50/50, entry/exit, REO process; it can mean overlapping a business strategy to a vision, and the associated lifestyle questions.

(The down stroke will have to go towards the mortgage eventually—assuming they take you out.)
