-Blogs with sporadic postings.

First question:When was the first blog post made on BiggerPockets.com?

That depends heavily on me in the next few upcoming days though.As to details, I'm saving this one for a blog entitled "Ghettofabulous".

I've read some of MikeOH blogs and it said he's been on a low carb diet.

LOLYou need a website with IDX, you need to blog, you need to constantly work on SEO, you need to post ads on the top sites.Do not spend any money until you research with other agents if the product works or is worth it.

A modest goal to be sure, especially compared to the volume of transactions some of you do.

The more visibility we can get there, the better; more visibility means more visitors, more members, more people to partner with, more great content and so on.The best way to get that visibility is for people to "Like" our Facebook page, to share our forums, discussions, articles, blogs, etc., and to promote BiggerPockets there.

Yes, J Scott's blog is a great resource for rehabbers/flippers: http://www.123flip.com/

What blogs and online data sources do my fellow armchair economists follow?

I am about to make my first REO offer, any advice on getting it accepted or what to expect would be greatly appreciated.I read a BP blog post about how to get my offer accepted, and I am planning to remove the inspection contingency, make an all cash offer, large escrow deposit, and offer to close in 5 days.
