I have a BlackBerry and my Wife has an Iphone.After playing around with both, I wish I could marry the two and have the perfect phone.However, If I had to pick one, and only one, it would be the Iphone!

I still get deals done (not always that perfect), but I consider all of the factors for each particular deal before making an offer.One example - I assumed a mortgage that was not assumable as written because the current borrower was in default and the lender was motivated not to run it through the whole foreclosure process.

Cordova is perfect example.

Most people, when buying a home are paying premium dollars because they want everything perfect.
