Quick Real Estate Links
Today’s Quick Links are all real estate related because of the collapsing real estate market. For some people these are bad times while for others great deals are starting to appear. I can tell you based on our continuing growing sales of LandlordMax that the more astute real estate investors are still very active in the market today. Most likely what’s happening is that the late comers coming in at the end of the boom for quick capital appreciation gains are being punished for being last. It’s very much a repeat of every other boom bust cycle, just like the recent dot com stock market boom and bust.
Without further ado, today’s Quick Real Estate Links:

Even with foreclosures rising, subprime issues, and weakening economic indicators, there is still a good market for luxury items. For example, second homes, fractionals, and timeshares still continue to sell. As long as buyers perceive that they are a good deal, they will continue to spend their extra cash.
