Re: China is Banking on a Detroit Comeback

Detroit Real Estate — Wed, 07 Aug 2013 03:07:54 -0000

China is now eying on the US Real estate market as it looks vulnerable specially the Detroit real estate market.Once Detroit was known for its Real estate market and buying a property in Detroit was a issue of prestige and a ritual but in the last few years it has deteriorated massively to become bankrupt and thus giving the Chinese investors to buy some cheap properties in Detroit.

Re: Motor City makeover: Can bankrupt Detroit be revitalized by private investment?

Detroit Real Estate — Wed, 07 Aug 2013 03:17:59 -0000

Yes of course.Why not ? Detroit can be revitalized to its old state by encouraging more and more investment by the private sector as investment can lead to money coming back to the economy and boosting the economy of coming out of the financial crisis.But it will take a long time.May be 2 to 3 years for Detroit to come back to its original state.

Re: Ghost Town – A Property Investment Lesson From Detroit

Detroit Real Estate — Wed, 07 Aug 2013 06:48:08 -0000

There are a lot of lessons that should be learn from Detroit. Firstly the economic policies that were made by the government proved to be a hurdle in the overall development of the Detroit.Secondly, the mismanagement of the housing properties.The housing properties were not taken proper care of meaning the repairs that needed to be done were not done timely from saving them from decaying.Thirdly the property tax was not paid on time which also has become a deterrent for people taking a decision of leaving the state or not buying Detroit properties.

These are just rumors by the Chinese investors to downgrade the Detroit market and to take control over the market.

There is a lot of negative stuff being spoken for Detroit and that it is bankrupt,abandoned houses and many more things.Detroit has been the top city in terms of per capita income from the last few years and yes this is true that it is now financially weak due to some bad economic polices but that happens to every economy all over the world and we have seen countries and cities recovering from these economic depression.

Re: Buying a home in a tax lien sale

Detroit Real Estate — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 07:57:50 -0000

This is very good discussion.From my point of view house sold for properties tax liens can be very good dealing for those who want to buy homes.
Property tax liens are a type security interests against property to get
payment of real estate taxes. Tax liens for property taxes are imposed
by the local government authority, or municipality, that collects the
fees amounts. Counties, cities and towns are types of taxing municipalities.
Some taxing authorities auction off properties with tax liens to public
bidders in order to get the payment owed in back taxes. The winning
bidder becomes the new owner of the real estate.

Re: Detroit Finally Reassessing Inflated Property Values

Detroit Real Estate — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 08:08:27 -0000

The city’s reassessment could take three to five years and eventually
provide relief to thousands of residents and businesses if the city
finds it must lower property values. Doing so, though, could lower tax
revenues as the city restructures through bankruptcy.

I love the suggestion to respond manually. There are lots of different ways to say the same thing, even within 140 characters. There's nothing like going to a brand's Twitter page and seeing the same tweets over and over again. It screams 'canned response.' Responding manually can also allow you to match the tone of the original tweeter you're responding to.

Re: How To Get Links By Writing About Other People

I like interviews that are a mix of question types. I see a lot of interviews that start off with questions in keeping with blog/industry topics, and then end with one questions out of left field. I think that's a great way to end an interview.

Re: How To Get Links By Writing About Other People

Brittany Berger — Wed, 01 May 2013 16:45:27 -0000

I think interviews can be great link bait. I've found that a lot of companies and individuals have "press" or "in the news" pages where they will link to the interview from our company's blog.

Re: Vine Passes Instagram In Total Twitter Shares

Does anyone else think the reason for this is the absence of Instagram Twitter cards? Ever since Twitter cards were disabled for Instagram, I've noticed a lot less people tweeting Instagram pictures, sometimes uploading them to Twitter separately (as I do).

Re: 5 Creative Ways to Drive More Traffic to Your Blog Posts

Brittany Berger — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 12:47:27 -0000

The only tip I don't love is the Instagram one. Links don't work on Instagram (unless it's a hashtag or mention), so I don't really understand why it's better than just uploading the picture to Facebook or Twitter without going through Instagram. You're also restricted as to what kind of images you can share there, as it has to be the right dimensions or parts of your blog post image will get cut off, like in the example above.
