I never said take action without gaining some knowledge or just throw enough stuff against the wall and hope something sticks.

Then, I throw it all away; clean up the place; change the locks; and re-rent it ASAP.

there is a demand for rentals as there are many people that can't qualify for loans on their own. rent prices have not been affected by the downturn in the housing market. i have clients that have similar homes in the area and they simply throw a sign up in the yard and an ad in the paper and get it rented within the first day. this particular client has 10 rentals within 5 miles of this.the 'real' value is where it gets tricky. this is the standard block/stucco florida home. the price of this home is now at the price that these homes sold for back in the 90s.

From CNN:The president will take his case for the stimulus plan to a wider audience Monday night as he holds his first prime-time White House news conference.

Persistance is the key; you cannot expect everyone and their dog to call after putting up a few signs.It is after your targeted audience becomes comfortable with you that you will see results.

Expect the bread not only to settle in this time, but to flop like a bad soufflé.Your Depression Delight is now ready to be served... oh yeah, nobody likes this dish, so I say we throw it out!

My concern is that we are throwing around Millions Billions Trillions without much preparation.

That's just throwing away money!
