They are "shoved" into the ground similar to how you put in beach umbrellas - i.e. they are probably going to fall over in high winds and one of them did already. 

Just started in this journey, looking to buy beach front vacation rental property (I know - typical) to become part of my retirement portfolio and possibly my retirement home .  

Now, we are in process of selling our 1st house in Edmonds, and buying an upgraded house in nice Edmonds area (close to beach and downtown Edmonds).

I am a Investor in Broward and Palm Beach looking for good flip deals.

Im a Realtor in the VA Beach area.

Hi, my name is Arnaldo Mora, I'm a Doctor in Internal Medicine, and as part time I'm trying to do investment in my  area, I'm in the beginning of real estate business, only I have one apartment  and one Medical Office...

how many investors here from North County San Diego, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, San Marcos, Carlsbad, Oceanside.

My experience has been in the Real Estate Private Equity space working as an Accountant/Financial Analyst for a global firm based out of Palm Beach Florida who primarily buys/sells large multi-family, hotel and residential development deals.

I recently sold my condo located in Long Beach, CA.

Maybe this is just a phenomenon here in a beach community but I am getting darn tired of clicking on a listing that has 7 pictures and 3 are of the outside of the front of the house...obviously snapped from the agent's car and the remaining are stock photographs of the lighthouse and fort and beach ...I'm not buying the lighthouse and I do not think the fort is for sale...it is so frustrating why can't get they get off their lazy behind and take pictures of the front and back of the house and GASP the interior...even a kitchen and bathroom photo would help...does anyone else have this problem ?
