Call me Jimmy Buffett. I grew up in Florida on the beach when Florida had less than half the population it has now. Although I am formal when I need to be, I am in Flip Flops, T Shirt, and Shorts at most other times, and a northern variation of that in the Winter up here. I am comfortable in my s...

From time to time on the internet or from people on the street, I hear "real estate agents make too much money." I think alot of that is the misconception that the percentage charged for listing a property all goes to the agent. In fact, I have seen that on the web from person who really don't un...

Lately, I have been getting a "gut" feeling that the days of buying houses for cheap and fliping them at a profit (wholesaling) are coming to a close in this cycle in many markets and certainly my own (DC & No. VA).
