How to Spot a Foreclosure

Dead Grass = Foreclosed property.

Casey?

Does anybody know what happened to Casey Serin?

Back in California

Here is an aerial view of approximately 85 newer homes. Of these, about 20 are for sale with 2 foreclosures. It is sad to see peoples homes have to go back to banks. Prices have come down about 10-15% in the past year.

Now that I am back in California it will be interesting to watch this market, as I am looking to buy within the near future. Shoud I wait awhile, or buy now?

Howard Hates Seals

I bet those damn seals have taken over the harbor since I've been gone.

Somebody turn up the radio and get this par-tay started!

Best photo-shopped picture. Ever. Presidents Bush after Hurricane Katrina.

The $20,000 House

This house recently sold for $20,000. My dad bought it. It is in Iowa within commuting distance to a major city, but still has the feel of very small town life.



This is a view out of the front yard.




Absolutely stunning backyard view. The best view $20,000 can buy.


Howard wonders, "is Iowa the only state with $20,000 houses on the market in a town where one does not need to fear for one's life?" Such questions exhaust him.
