DISQUS

LOL - made in India??? Talk about out sourcing.

Lane, I did the same thing with my son when he was young. He has his own Lionel layout in one half of our garage. :) It is great to have a Father and son hobby together.

Hi Lane,

Jumped from AG to your site and really liked the photos of the model railroads. I am a model railroader myself and have two layouts in my home (which my wife does not appreciate) - one is HO and the other is N scale. Nice relaxing hobby that allows one to use various skills sets or develop new ones.

Nice rig to travel around the country last year.

Joe - since my skill levels are not as good as your's think you did a really great job and enjoyed this selltoons.

Older history - I can remember looking out of my Father's office window, when I was young person, and seeing a plaque on a building where the first anethethesia surgical was performed. The original building was not there, but replaced by a financial institution. In later years, the plaque and building were demolished in the name of progress. Today, I don't think any knowledge of this event is noted in public. However, if someone visits Boston and they stand in front of 18 Tremont Street and look across the street they will know where this momentous occasion took place.

We truly should preserve history for coming generations to remember where man has been.

I have to disagree with Jennilyn - I don't think all blogs will carry some advertising.

Well said Joe and with few words. Yes people are too quick not to check their spam folders. Today, I did find an e-mail from a prospect because they hit a send button from a site 3 times - so it triggered the spam filter.

Denver - I don't know if I know 100 blog owners to do guest posts for. You have to wonder where Greg and Ardell posted.

Melina - glad to read that I am not the only person with questions. :)

Ryan - I agree with you! I have tried to figure out how people spend so much on the Internet and still find time to do real estate. Personally, I think the most posts in one day have been about 3. LOL

Does this methodology still work today? If so, it really a great tool for people to increase their traffic and have it more targetted.

Glenn's last blog post..Real Estate News 04/28/08

Ardell - I don't know how you could do so many posts in such a short time. To me developing worthwhile posts is difficult to say the least. Would you care to share any of your techniques? Or if Greg visits this blog - could he share his insights?

Thanks in advance, both Ardell and Greg.

I am guessing that you are planning the event for September of this year and not having a flashback to 2006. LOL

Here is a dumb question - are the posts on the same blog or on any blog regarding real estate or tech?

Excuse my inquiring mind.

Joe - did you have an requirements for what was considered a post - for example, number of words or topic?

Also, were the post all on the same blog or over a broad number of blogs?

If on the same blog - was there any negative effects from the search engines?

Thanks. :)

In today's real estate market - interior condition is unzillowable. Many homes in the "distressed" state have many negatives which prospect buyers might want.

Another unzillowable is the historical pricing within a neighborhood versus another neighborhood.

Great idea - I never thought about adding my blog to my print advertising.
However my blog is incorporated into my website, so I wonder would it be beneficial?

I certainly hope that the contestants are not treated like they treat contestants on the reality programs - which will go unnamed.

It is truly ashame that someone doing such a helpful project gets raked across the coals for it. Don't know either party, but have to give Kris and Steve a big pat on their backs for a job well done.

An assisted living facility that participates in a Medicaid program, does have to comply with certain Federal laws, due to funds being received thru the Medicaid program, which falls under the Social Security program.

Under Florida Statutes Chapter 400 Part 3; Florida Administrative Code Chapter 58A-5 et seq.

"Admission/Retention:
Continued residency. Additional criteria affect continued residency. In standard assisted living facilities, people who are bedridden more than seven days or develop a need for 24-hour nursing supervision may not be retained. Residents with Stage II pressure sores may remain if the facility has a limited nursing license or the resident contracts with a home health agency or registered nurse.

Agreements:
Resident contracts must include a list of specific services, supplies and accommodations provided, including limited nursing services and extended congregate care services; the basic daily, weekly, or monthly rate; a list of any additional services available and their charges; a provision giving at least a 30-day notice of rate changes; rights, duties, and obligations of residents; purpose of advance payments or deposits and refund policy; bed hold policy; a statement of any religious affiliation; and a notice of transfer if the facility is not able to serve the resident."

The key issue is that none of us know the resident's true medical condition and a resident's medical condition can change in such a manner that a higher level of patient is required. There is a contract between the patient and the facility and we do not know the clauses within that contract, however, it probably has specific criteria for continued residence and conditions for discharge.

Welcome to the complicated world of healthcare.

Thanks for the compliment. You are correct the property tax bill will increase as a result of those improvements not permitted.

Will continue to stop by and comment when I have something to say, hopefully, it will as valuable as the above comment.

Just trying to figure out how to get the feeds for comments, so that I can follow and respond if appropriate.

If you get a chance drop by my blog, your constructive comments would be greatly appreciated.

Joseph - think you might have only hit the tip of an iceberg on this article. Depending upon the locale the seller might be facing possible permitting, penalties and fines for not obtaining the proper local permits for the modifications of their properties. In some cases these could exceed the annual real estate tax bill.

Another aspect worth noting is that the buyer may unknowningly purchase a property without the proper permits and inherit the responsibility of permitting costs, penalties and fines. Guess that gets back to the aspect of "let the buyer beware."

Do any one thing this will replace the prospective buyer from actually visiting a property to determine if the property meets their own individual needs? IMHO, it could cause some to second think their desire to see a particular home within a neighborhood.

LOL - you have wonder how many auto accidents will happen when a driver's eye is caught by one of the dancers. Maybe this is a little over the top for me.

Recently, old Hollywood small screen stars are pushing lots in various communities through out the United States. You can see the ads for Arkansas. Kind of reminds me of someone trying to sell Florida swamp land or the old days of GDC and Deltona promoting "your retirement home in sunny Florida."

Somethings over time do not change.

Stumbled across this post today and found it interesting that someone would charge for accessing a blog. When checking out the link to the blog - it no longer goes to the blog. It appears that he is parking the blog or trying to sell it.
