Nice post at DBF. If you ever want to do a guest post on my blog drop me a line, or if you have any further real estate questions. I know you asked some at 1500 days.
Thanks Charles!
And a timely reminder… I will be doing a blast of RE research very soon so I really appreciate the offer of assistance on that front (and about the guest post as well)! Will be in touch soon and will definitely be dropping by your place so expect a few questions fired your way. 🙂
