October 8, 2008 by
When analyzing whether a home for sale is priced properly or not, there are several factors to evaluate. First, and most obviously, what’s been selling in the neighborhood, and for how much?

$700b Bailout Falls to Defeat
September 29, 2008 by
I can’t remember an issue in recent times that I’ve been more torn over. I’m all for smaller government and the free market economy, so how could I support a government bailout of the failing financial market? At the same time, my own business hinges on the success of our financial market. To say the […]
