You've come to the right place to begin your investment education, though it sounds like it's in your blood.

Do the vents just provide air circulation?

Looks like blood spatter.

I don't see "Thrifty Nickel" circulated around here.

A developer with a good relationship with an architect can get services pre-contract that other developers cannot get and thus has a huge head start on structuring possible deal term sheets or items they can circulate to their investor pool to get a feel for whether or not that type of structuring will work from an overall deal perspective.  

In a sense, they are getting the money as soon as the agreement is made, they just are not getting the first draw until the closing happens.In general, I try not to create bad blood situations--it may be too late in this case.  

Probate listings are required to be published weekly for four consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the decedent has real property or where he/she died.

Can't squeeze blood from a turnip!

It should be illegal" I am offended and this makes my blood boil.

Nice to see new blood around Oregon.
