My aunt just moved by to the US from Singapore and she's actually renting a house in Arizona in the town she's thinking of moving to just to get a bit of a "feel". Sure, we fall in love with our house and what's the the left and right of what's inside our front door is essential, but it's just as important we fall in love with what's to the left and right outside of our door. And hey, if both are a good match then something tells me you're right where you need to be :) I think “living there before you live there” is a great outlook Kyle.

The May Mortgage Report just announced that there is a tremendous number of new foreclosures in the pipeline, accumulating way more quickly than they're being cleared by foreclosure sales. How can this not result in the home loan market collapsing even further? The real estate market is already at rock bottom.

There's another way to "green" your house and that is to choose an energy supplier that provides renewable energy to the grid. Viridian is not in DC yet because the distric is not deregulated but it is in Maryland. And Viridian is cheaper than Pepco. I'm working to get more agents to ask their sellers to switch to Viridian so that the listing can be promoted as a "green" house and stand out from the competition. Brandon,

You were reading my mind. Many great opportunities are available. In South Florida where I now work you can pick up condos even cheaper in the $40,000 range for a two bedroom and rents are $1000-$1200. Great post Brandon! You were reading my mind.
