Pet Friendly Real Estate Can Boost Your Real Estate Cash Flow

By Chris Clothier on Mon, Dec 3, 2012

For any investor wanting to get started in real estate investing, it is a dilemma. For others, it is a clear-cut issue.

Investment Property Management | Advantages of Scale in Technology

By Chris Clothier on Sat, Feb 18, 2012

Why Use Remote Property Management? There are many reasons but the biggest may be the advent of technology that can help an investor know the exact status of their property from 5,000 miles away.  Generally speaking, technology takes many forms.
