I just want to make sure I have funding secured before I really press in oil this guy to get the deal done.

As mentioned, I think that I have found my strategy and just need to keep pressing forward.

Was this another press release put out to show that our government is doing something and then promptly forgotten about?

NOLO Press puts out legal self help books.

My current apartment lease ends in April so I am a bit pressed for time.

I suggest you check out the books by Nolo Press.

I lived in silicon valley and Austin before moving to KC earlier this year (so I have a high bar) but I've been impressed with the how intrigued KC folks are about startups.My coliving startup has gotten lots of support from the press and the local startup community - www.livehomeroom.comWhat type of start up are you looking to incubate btw? 

In my town (as in most towns) there are depressed areas where people do live, but you would be hard-pressed to find any real estate investors at work in those areas, buying and flipping, etc. 

I really like the legal self help book from Nolo Press.

I can now check another periodical off of my list of places that I'd love to get a mention from.This has been a pretty good 2 months for us in the press, with other mentions in Personal Real Estate Investor Magazine and Northern Virginia Magazine.
