Of course the apartment can be finished inside, but only for additional payment.Now about the projects that I have, all builders\developers that I deal with are usually big players on the local markets, which means that they have several projects at the same time, in different stages of construction.

Welcome Marsha,As Boss lady said, you get addicted to logging on and seeing what the different players have to say.

I can go on and on here, but the fact is that Georgia was acting in a manner that was necessary and Russia had no business getting involved other than to flex its muscles and prove it was still a player in the world stage.As for Russia absorbing Georgia, that is not likely to happen without WWIII happening.

The collective impact of these developments makes Columbus an appealing place to invest in real estate, offering the potential for long-term appreciation and prosperity as the city solidifies its position as a key player in technology, manufacturing, and business.

The reason a lot of investor never get started is they are in a market that demands cash, or an extreme amount of patience and luck to get into a deal with little or no cash.. whereas if your say in MI or OH or any of the big cities in the mid west if you wish you can get started with 5k or 10k and own and asset and gain experience .. you may not get rich or you may lose your money )( fairly certain many do) but you will get a transaction under your belt and can start to move up the food chain.If you living in one of the very high priced markets your 1. competing against some pretty big money and smart tough players.. 2. there is a shortage of properties not a plethora of vacant boarded up homes like all of the mid west upper east coast and some of the deep south...3. your making 200k working for google and who the heck needs 100 a month cash flow and all the hassles that creates.. better to concentrate on moving up the google latter and investing in tech companies that you know and understand.. what you don't know and understand when your on the west coast is how the heck people live in other parts of the country and how there can be so many low end valuless homes...
