It's almost "morel mushroom time"

If you live almost anywhere in the upper Midwest of the United States, then you are most likely familiar with the spring ritual called "Morel mushroom hunting". People participate in this somewhat strange hobby for many different reasons. Probably the best reason for it is that they taste really good. Even though that for me, this would be the main reason I do it, another reason is that I just love any excuse to get out in the woods in the springtime. It's a great way to get some exercise. So not only do you improve your health, eating the mushrooms can also be healthy!

Hunting mushrooms is not easy, and is not something that everyone can do without help from an experienced mushroom hunter. If you do not know an experienced mushroom hunter then I would suggest reading every bit of material that you can find either your local library or on the Internet, which should give you enough information to be dangerous. What I mean by that is, that if I've learned anything about mushroom hunting, it is that everything you read won't necessarily fit your situation.

Just about everyone that I've talked to has a different opinion of where to find Morel mushrooms. All I can tell you his start in the areas that people suggest, which is commonly around Elm trees or Ash trees, and from there if you don't find them start looking every where because I have found them in just about any type of woods. I pretty much have come to the conclusion that mushrooms grow where they feel like it. I can say however that generally Oak tree's and other trees that tend to be more acid are not usually good places to look for Morel mushrooms. I have however found them near Pine trees, where the soil is Sandy and loamy.

These little tasty morsels have a bad habit of hiding, and it takes an experienced eyes and a lot of trial and error to find mushrooms in the woods. These little buggers can hide in places that you would believe in commonly are very small and only the most alert eyes will find them. But with a little time and patience, anyone can become an experienced mushroom hunter and enjoy the Morel mushroom for the delicacy that it is.

If you have never hunted or found Morel mushrooms before, then you should be cautious the very first time that you try, as some people have allergic reactions to them. Also make sure that you understand the identification processes and have looked at a number of pictures of what normal Morel mushrooms look like as well is what the false Morel mushrooms look like. You can find some pictures of Morel's on my site at http://www.wm8c.com/morel_mushrooms.htm.

Car Insurance search

The teenager shopping for car insurance is at a decided disadvantage. Can't say that there is such a thing as 'cheap' car insurance for a teenager, but you can definitely reduce your car insurance rate if you and your teen work together. Buying car insurance can be a confusing and even frustrating experience if you don't know what you are doing.

If you're a first time insurance buyer or getting a few car insurance quotes, it is important that you shop around. If you own car that's not worth much say less than two thousand dollars then drop the collision/comprehensive coverage clauses on your car insurance cover. If your car is worth less than 10 times the annual insurance premium, purchasing extra coverage may not be affordable.

If you are already covered under other policies for medical insurance in case of accident and are already paying a hefty premium on that then you eliminate the duplicate medical coverage under your car insurance. Furthermore, under law you are responsible for your vehicle, therefore, if you are seeking insurance coverage and intend to allow other drivers to drive the car, make sure you get coverage for other drivers, otherwise if the driver causes an accident, by law you will pay for the damage, loss, death, and any other problem the accident caused.

If you are determined at fault in an accident and do not have adequate liability coverage, that is enough to cover the injuries and damages to the other party, and you are sued by the other party’s insurance company, the court could order you to pay the amount that exceeds your limit of Liability coverage.

Don't get caught with you insurance down, it's not a good thing to do! A few common terms -Uninsured Motorist - This is coverage that pays for your injuries and property damage even if the other person involved in the accident did not have sufficient insurance coverage. * Bodily Injury And Liability - This coverage is very important as it provides for injury damage to others in the case of claims that are files against you if you are involved in a car wreck.

Totally unique content with Website Content Wizard

This morning, I was jumping up and down for joy! I'm always monitoring the progress of other companies in my sector, and I received an email this morning about a piece of software that checked your content for "duplicate content". It's the lead in to a product launch, and it tells you that you need to make sure that the content you are using is more than 30% different to any other content you are using.

So I thought that I would try and check some output from software I own called, Website Content Wizard, and make sure that it always"produced new content that was more than 30% different". The results were absolutely outstanding using
Website Content Wizard.

I created 20 new articles with
Website Content Wizard, and used this software tool to check every one of the twenty articles produced.EVERY SINGLE ONE got this message - "Excellent! Your Modified content is more than 30% unique from the Original content source.No further modifications or changes are required. "WOW - Read that again - someone else's software endorsing the output of my software.

I want to give you the proof, so here are the exact figures for comparison.

1. Your Modified Content is 74.20% unique.
2. Your Modified Content is 78.13% unique.
3. Your Modified Content is 96.50% unique.
4. Your Modified Content is 89.10% unique.
5. Your Modified Content is 66.04% unique.
6. Your Modified Content is 100.00% unique.
7. Your Modified Content is 78.58% unique.
8. Your Modified Content is 71.93% unique.
9. Your Modified Content is 81.82% unique.
10. Your Modified Content is 77.78% unique.
11. Your Modified Content is 90.48% unique.
12. Your Modified Content is 93.23% unique.
13. Your Modified Content is 82.98% unique.
14. Your Modified Content is 70.38% unique.
15. Your Modified Content is 74.61% unique.
16. Your Modified Content is 84.85% unique.
17. Your Modified Content is 80.33% unique.
18. Your Modified Content is 90.00% unique.
19. Your Modified Content is 90.77% unique.

That's the results of 19 articles compared to article number 1 - so20 articles in total."more than 30% unique from the Original content source" - That's what this piece of software says is needed. The LOWEST figure for the content I produced from
Website Content Wizard is 66.04% UNIQUE from the original content.

I don't know what else to say - the facts speak for themselves. If you aren't already an owner of
Website Content Wizard, then you need to go get this software now and check it out. AND, guess what - those figures were produced using Website Content Wizard Version 2.

On Monday, March 26th, David will be releasing
Website Content Wizard Version 3, which is even more powerful. I'm not going to rush you into buying by claiming that the price is going to increase - because it's not. Version 3 will be available at the same price as Version 2. You don't even need to worry about paying for upgrade fees - David provides free upgrades to his users - so all existing users automatically get upgraded to Version 3 at no charge. If you want a content creation tool that produces quality unique content - look at Website Content Wizard. If you are willing to accept 2nd-best - look elsewhere, but you don't need to look any further.

Build your own original content AdSense income websites

Like many people, I keep hearing all these stories about folks making a killing with Adsense just by putting up a few simple sites. I've been quietly raking in the cash from Adsense using some software that I found on the internet.

This amazing software program creates an unlimited number of unique Adsense content sites that bring the search engines flooding to your door.It uses simple but radical new techniques to build sites that avoid the duplicate content filters being applied by the search engines. If you've got some PLR articles lying about, you can feed them into this program, and it will spit out complete optimized websites faster than you can blink.

If you act quickly you can get the advantage of this program for a fraction of the usual price, but, if you get to the website at
WebSiteArticleWizard.com, you can get in on this great software yourself.I nearly fell off my chair when I visited the site,and checked out his income statement. He used it to earn over $5000 while he was on vacation, lazing on the beach, and he'll even show you the proof of this.

You can watch him demonstrate exactly how it works, and he'll let you check out some of the websites built with it. He is reluctant to let too many people get their hands on the program, so that it doesn't lose its' effectiveness, and I don't know how much long he is going to keep selling it.I wish I'd known about it sooner. I've grabbed my copy and already started using it to produce my own empire of Adsense content sites. You really should check out at
websitearticlewizard.com right now, while the program is still available.

Is now the time to refinance?

The answer that question really depends on the type of mortgage that you already have. Having just recently refinance our second mortgage I can offer a little bit of advice in this area. I live in Michigan, and you can get Michigan or New Jersey Mortgages which are available for quote through Mortgage Lenders with a quote from PersonalHomeLoanMortgages.com. All you need to do is provide them with some basic information on your home and what type of loan you are looking for, and you receive quotes from sources they represent for you loan.

In our case, we originally had a Home Equity Line of credit loan with a variable rate at 1% over prime. When we first took out the loan 3 years ago, the interest rate was very reasonable and this was a great option. As the economy has improved and the Fed has raised interest rates almost quarterly, that was quickly changing.

Because of that fact, we opted for a fixed rate mortgage which are offered as either 15, 25 or 30-year loans. 15-year loans have lower interest rates but 30-year loans have lower monthly payments because the interest is paid off over a longer period of time. This type of loan has a steady interest rate, and monthly payments that do not change throughout the life of the loan. This type of mortgage is especially attractive to borrowers when interest rates are low because loans are more affordable.

It may be time for you to re-evaluate your current loan and make a change. Remember, it's your money.

New Google referral ads go to Beta

This could be the most important news of the year if you are an AdSense Publisher. Google is introducing in beta test on the US market, a new type of ad. Pay per action and pay per sale could soon become part of the Google options. Advertisers within the Adwords program will be able to bid for an action, and not only for a click! This is a big difference, and could mean that you won't have to fear paying for useless clicks.

In addition it will lower the "click fraud" syndrome which can be a real pain with Adwords. An example of an action could be a lead i.e. you will pay when the visitor has completed the form, thus becoming a "real" prospect that you will be able to follow-up with. Your bid is now giving you the life time value of this lead...instead of the nanosecond value of the visitor's click. It could be a sale i.e. a disguised affiliate program. But imagine, the profits it could lead (especially in non IM related niches).

You will offer $5 or $10 for each sale generated. This could help you find publishers for your program. For the Advertiser, Google has now added a new type of Text Link Ad. It will be a few words of text that will be in line with your own content. It will be transparent, and your visitors will not be able to know it exists, until they click on the ad.

If the visitor completes the action (lead, sale), you will be paid for this.It's kind of what some scripts do by embedding clickbank products inside your content...the main difference is that, it will be much more relevant than most of the non related clickbank products. I will be following this with a lot of interest and can't wait till out of beta to the general public.

Recording phone calls - is it ethical?

How many times have you heard the phrase, "this call may be recorded for training purposes" or simply this call may be recorded. I don't know about you, but I have to say that I find this a bit unnerving when I hear it, as I prefer to have nothing recorded for later use. But, in today's world of electronics and in some cases dishonesty of the customer, this can become a necessary evil for many companies in the phone based customer service industry. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm not always in a good mood when I call the customer service line and have on occasion even been known to be a bit rude.

So if you are in one of those situations where you find yourself in need of a
Phone Recorder device, Brickhouse Security carries a full line of devices for all of your needs. Digital Phone Recorders are compatible with any cell phone or landline to record any conversation. Because they are digital, the data can be erased with the touch of a button. They offer various mobile models boasting a long battery life.

Whether or not you feel phone recording is a good or a bad thing, it appears to be an expected thing in the industry. As long as they are using these recordings for "training purposes" I guess I don't mind, but then I expect that the training will make my next visit to the customer service hot line a more pleasant experience.

AdSense and Images - what's the latest?

It seems this topic has quickly cooled since late January and I'm assuming the majority of people have now removed the images next to their ad blocks.

I remember when I first was hearing suggestions about this as a method to increase CTR's and it seemed like a logical thing to do at the time. I over a period of days added images to almost every page I had at the time. I then later changed to an animated bar on some of the pages and was in progress of doing a comparison of the two methods to see how each would produce. I thought at the time I was seeing an increase of 1 -2% in CTR's.

Then came the rule definition with regard to using pictures and graphics next to AdSense ads, and for me shortly after that a polite note from Google that a page (or pages) on my site was in violation and I had 3 days to correct it. It was actually a page with static images that was called out but I wasn't taking any risks and began an immediate removal of all images from my site. Boy what a couple of days that was. My eyes were ready to fall out of my head by the time I was finished. I notified Google and received a nice thank you and clean bill of health about 6 days later.

Well here we are in the later half of March and the results have been interesting. My CTR's have actually gone up since going back to my original layout without graphics. My CTR's are up a solid 2% on average from where I was in December and January, and March looks to be the best earnings month I've had to date since starting on this adventure in April 2006.

I think what I've learned from this, is that no matter what the idea is, just because it works for someone else, doesn't mean it will work for you. You need to continue to test and see what is best for you site. Another thing I've learned is don't go running off buying the latest thing out there. Chances are, you already know how to do what you are going to be told in the latest email or download being offered. They in some cases just motivate you to actually do something with it.

All I'm saying is proceed with caution before you buy the latest "flavor of the month" or next hugely promoted launch that you receive. Have you ever noticed how if you are on more than a few lists, almost everyone of them promotes the same thing? Occasionally I have seen something that is really a "fresh" idea come along and they are worth a second look but buyer beware because you can get sucked in quickly if your not careful by all the hype with a new launch.

One thing I didn't regret buying was Joel's book (free plug Joel :D ), because it was very affordable and I did find very useful information to help me increase my AdSense earnings and for the cost of the book, I felt it was a great deal. I can't say the same for a number of other things I've tried since. Let common sense prevail, you won't regret it.

The old adage still holds true...if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is. There is no magic bullet for AdSense, but with time and patience (and not getting yourself banned), you can earn a nice passive income with the program.

Search Engine Rankings - one hard learned lesson

If you rely on natural search engine traffic, then this is probably something for you. Back in October of last year, I had found new program that I started to use to add pages geared for use with Google AdSense. In my zealousness to add more pages to the site in a short period of about of week, I had added five new sites and about 2500 pages in that same period.

At the time this seemed like a great idea, but I quickly realized the error of my ways, as pages that I had had indexed for a number of years started to disappear, especially from the Google index. Since about 60% of my natural traffic came from Google, that did have a huge effect on the traffic to my site at the time. I went from approximately 550 new visitors or unique visitors every day to only about 200 per day. It didn't seem to have much of an effect on Yahoo or MSN, but since they only accounted for about 25% of my traffic, this wasn't much of a benefit.

What I learned by this is that Google definitely does have a spam filter. I have no idea what the threshold for this filter is, but obviously 2500 pages in one-week was way too many and too short a time. What happened next, I can only describe it as what is commonly referred to as falling into the Google sandbox. Pages that had been indexed in Google for more than three years and were very popular pages on the site, suddenly totally disappeared from the index. As they came back into the index, my traffic slowly increased back to and now above previous levels, but that took about 3 months to accomplish.

Since that time, I have been trying to optimize my pages to get better listings in Yahoo and MSN along with Google, in the hopes that should something like this ever happen again, that the traffic won't so severely drop-off all at once. Now I add no more than one additional subdirectory per week and try to limit the page additions to about 200 or less, which seems to avoid tripping the spam filters within Google. My search engine traffic still come primarily from Google, but I now have a much more respectable with Yahoo and MSN as well.

This allows me to continue to grow my site, increase my traffic, and to continue to increase my Adsense earnings at a respectable pace. I continued to explore new niches and find new ways to monetize the site. More to come.

Real estate listings - what's the best choice?

Whether you are looking to buy a home for living in or whether are looking to just invest in real estate, you will need to get hold of real estate listings as the first thing. Internet and newspapers are the most common ways of getting real estate listings.With internet gaining popularity, internet real estate listings have become one of the easiest ways of checking out the real estate listings. Though the traditional method of looking for real estate listings (through newspapers) is still one of the most used methods, it is a very time consuming one.

You have to read through various listings and sort out the ones that seem more suitable to you (and possibly write down the phone numbers and contact details on a piece of paper) and then call up the owners/brokers to fix an appointment for viewing the property (which may turn out to be totally disgusting in the end). Moreover, the newspaper listings generally happen on a weekly basis. So if a deal has materialised in the meanwhile, there is no way you can check it without actually calling up the owner/broker.

On the contrary, the internet real estate listings (on a good real estate listings website) are updated everyday or maybe twice a week. Moreover, new real estate listings go up on the internet everyday (i.e. they don’t wait for the newspaper to get published). So, if you have been using only the newspaper as your source of real estate listing information, you might end up getting stale information. You might lose out on a deal that was out on internet, say 2 days before. As such, making the first offer can make a big difference when it comes to real estate. Further, you don’t need to go through all the real estate listings in order to determine the listings that look suitable to you.

You can specify various search criteria/ filters in order to get only those real estate listings that you really want to look into. This is a big advantage when compared with newspapers where listings are generally classified just on the basis of location of the property. Thus you can save a lot of time here by browsing only through the real estate listings that are of interest to you. Moreover, there is no need to note phone numbers etc; you can just take printouts of the listings you want.

Some websites also provide tools/ facilities to track those real estate listings. You could even contact the sellers by sending a message through the website (some websites provide such email type of facility). Another important benefit from real estate listings on internet is that some of them also contain images of the property. So you can have a look at the images and see if you like the property at all.

Entering the FOREX market place

To have some feelings on the reality, beginner traders should start with demo account and paper trade with Forex. When you start Forex trading you can begin with a paper trading account with which you can understand how the market moves and you can develop more skills and knowledge about this trading account.

With a mini Forex trading account you can learn risk management, which will help you in future while dealing full-size trading account. Avoid trading with your emotions, avoid over trading your account, avoid over-staying at your positions, avoid bad money management, avoid risking what you cannot afford in Forex trading, avoid a margin call . When you add transaction costs to losses and subtract them from profits, FOREX day trading will soon empty your account of money and leave you with losses.

So all this can be summarized by simply saying that to win in Forex trading, you have to be disciplined enough to minimize your losses and maximize your winning trades. The Forex market is very dependent on the smallest changes in world economies and political situations so if you are going to be profitable you need to be able to understand these nuances and how they should affect your trading. If you are a forex trader, or a stock and share trader, or a futures and commodities trader, the first part of the equation to move from losing trades into profitable trades is to master your trading setups.

While in bum maketing, the chief free resource is the use of articles to assist in article marketing of his products or affiliate products, in forex bumming, the main free resource or tool for the forex trader is the free quotes and free charts that is widely available on the internet for analysis and identification of trading setups. Just like in bum marketing, forex bumming would refer to the ability of a former bum, taken off the streets and given some intensive training to trade in forex with the aid of simple and free tools. Through these training methods you can learn Forex currency trading easily; you come to know about the secure and safe places to conduct online currency trade, and how to use various online resources and tools for Forex trading.

The point is that if you are going to trade then you need to be aware of these Forex trading dangers and have realistic expectations about how much money you can make and also about the amount of time that you can realistically afford to invest in keeping up with the news about world markets. Sometimes the price for a forex broker with the above qualifications can be high, however you need to keep in mind, they can help you make more money in the long run and offset the cost. Traders that understand the forex market well and have an inclination for business can choose to become an introductory forex broker.

By taking the time and effort to do some initial research, you will be able to choose a reliable forex broker. Finally, before opening an account even with a regulated Forex broker, make sure that the broker will provide you with the backing you need.

Insurance quotes online for you personal needs

When looking for individual health insurance or other insurance quotes remember that "Individual" refers to the person buying the coverage, but the individual health insurance covers your whole family. Once you have quotes from a couple of health insurance providers, take the time to research the company to make sure you are comfortable with them. Since consumers don't have a significant influence on life insurance rates, I'm going provide a couple examples of certain conditions that will have an impact on the quotes you receive whether they are for auto, home, or life.

If you have certain conditions that can make your insurance rates higher than the norm, don't reconsider your choice for getting insurance just because of that. If you have some patience you can still find affordable insurance if you search for it. One of the advantages of getting online insurance quotes is the fact that you can collect your thoughts in the privacy of your home or office before you talk to an insurance company representative. Once you have made your choice based on your comparisons of instant online quotes, your new insurance company will prepare a contract or policy which lists the amounts and types of benefits and reimbursement to you.

As I stated before the process to obtain online insurance quotes is very simple and you will either be given instant free insurance quote, or you'll be contacted via email with several offers. In order to obtain these quotes, you have to visit an online quotes provider with a quote system that includes a simple, anonymous term life insurance quote questionnaire. To protect families from further grief brought about by death, insurance companies have come up with term life insurance and online term life insurance quotes for people to learn how much they need to enroll themselves in such an insurance plan.

Back Pain - what can you do?

The lower back pain treatment is required as lower back pain affects us more than any accident or any other short-term sickness. Upper back pain is less common but can be just as painful as lower back or neck pain. Upper back pain is the pain which surfaces between your neck and the lower back. For more information on back pain please keep reading.

A herniated or bulging disk can cause some lower back pain but the more telling symptoms are a sudden loss of bladder control and/or numbness or weakness in the legs. However, back pain exercises may not prove to be effective in cases where the pain is not caused by an improper posture or sudden movements, jerks or is accompanied by bowel or bladder control problems.

Yoga may be to reduce the pain of back problems, knowing exactly what poses to use, for how long, what to offset the poses with and in what sequence to execute them, are other factors that should be taken into consideration before using it as a therapeutic relief from back pain. I will go over the common, simple yet very effective poses for back pain and also give you instructions on the proper poses to offset the spinal motions when applicable. It is my hope that all these pointers above will come in handy in your use of yoga for back pain relief-with the right poses.

While these are the most common causes of low back pain, it is important to note that in approximately 80 percent of cases the ailment often occurs with no diagnosed underlying medical cause. Mechanical causes are responsible for more than 90% of back pain and the most common cause of back pain is probably muscle injury due to strain or sprain. The most common cause of low back pain is due to a disproportionate abdominal strength to back strength ratio. For more information on
back pain please visit my home page for back pain

For Sale By Owner

The For Sale By Owner home seller: FSBO (Fizz-Bow). It seems you can't drive far without seeing a home that is listed for sale by owner. If you want to buy a home and also save money, you’re going to want to buy a house for sale by owner.

People who know they cannot buy sometimes think that for sale by owner homes offer a better opportunity, because they're hoping to find a seller who will finance the transaction. One of the main reasons that buyers chose to buy properties for sale by owner (or private sale as it is known in Australia) is that they know the owner can be more flexible on the price and both the buyer and the seller can still end up better off. Many potential buyers in in the FSBO markey are also looking for homes for sale by owner for the same types of reasons, including direct contact with the seller, and avoiding price inflation.

There is one situation in which homes for sale by owner may sell faster than those that are sold with the assistance of a realtor; if you inflate the price of your home in order to compensate for the realtor’s commission you’ll eventually have to pay, the home will not sell as quickly.

Perhaps, but when the numbers are in and it becomes clear that only 14% of all homes that are For Sale by Owner actually sell as a true for sale by owner, you’ll understand why. For Sale By Owner (FSBO) families are saving literally thousands of dollars in real estate commissions when they decide to list their own homes (ie: FSBO), statistics show that it's probably one of the best ways to go.

Most people at some time in there life have had to use credit for something, be it a new home, car, boat, or even maybe a college loan. Right, wrong, or indifferent, credit has become a way of life for pretty much everything we do in this day in age. Having credit is very important and having “good” credit is paramount to your success and being able to acquire loans at an affordable rate.

The better your credit is, the better interest rates you can get on your loans when you do need them. Your credit score is based on a number of different factors. It can’t be expressed enough how important paying your bills on time or even early, and never missing a payment is. Your credit score can be affected by a number of factors, which rely heavily on your history of loan repayments, current debt ratios, whether you have any defaulted loans or have filed bankruptcy, and several more factors.

Every month we pay so many bills that defaulting on even one of them can lead to debt. It's not easy to remember paying all the bills on the right date and time. If you skip one of them, you have to pay delayed fees as well. So if you skip a particular payment for a few months, you have a huge debt piled up and ready.

Companies have now come up with a loan that is designed specially for people with a bad credit rating. These loans are called as bad credit mortgage loans. You can get

Rant on "The Lost Tomb of Jesus" aired on Discovery March 4th

I have not usually used my blog for rants, but this particular one really bugged me. I wrote a letter to Discovery about this show and it's airing on TV. I have always had a lot of respect for the Discovery Channel and it's programs. Below is the letter I sent to the director of the Discovery Channel.

"I have been a watcher, an avid watcher of Discovery for years and I immensely enjoy most of what you air. I do however take offense to the track that this show has taken.

I think of Discovery as my "science" channel, and not the "gotta make a buck through sensationalism" channel which this program and some recent others have become.

As I Christian, I find the premise ludicrous and it will be full of baseless facts that will at best, mislead people. I am a big believer in "science", but science and religion can co-exist nicely. I find it demeaning for the science community, that a show like this is being aired. I guess I will have to reconsider how much Discovery channel programming I will watch in the future.

I'm guessing we could find 10 archaeologists that would give different opinions to these claims, and I think Discovery should have maintained at least a neutrality standpoint to the subject you are presenting????? And no, a disclaimer stating that this is not the view of the station won't wash either. You've taken your stand so you better hope your eternity doesn't depend on it."

I honestly believe that science is very important and the facts are great for all of us to know. This show was so full of baseless guesses by the Archaeologists, that it was shameful to air on TV. Archeology itself is nothing more than "educated guesses" because we have no other way to learn about our history, but to start presenting it as "fact" is troubling.

All right enough of my rant and back to the business at hand and that is making some money.

Preconstruction - Good, Bad, & the Ugly

One of the greatest preconstruction investing issues that I hear from individual investors is that they can’t get access to what they believe are good projects. Although the preconstruction real estate investing option has been around for years, it just recently became mainstream and real estate investors all over the world are scouring the web for the best preconstruction real estate projects in areas where real estate prices are skyrocketing.

Remember, when searching for Florida investment real estate chose a brokerage that has a large selection of both
preconstruction and phase one projects and doesn’t pressure you into one of their flagship developments where they make a higher percent off the sale. If you’re the kind of investor that is looking for preconstruction investment real estate that you will be sure to sell at a whim’s notice AND bring you high rental income then perhaps you should look in it.

As developers have learned that the word “
preconstruction” alone can sell out a development, they have created a new trend in the industry by labeling every phase of the project a “preconstruction phase. This can be risky if you are not careful. If you are interested in investing in preconstruction property, you can check out the list of preconstruction offers available in your locality in the newspapers, on the Internet or with your real estate consultant; that is if you have those types of projects in your locale.

MECHANICS OF PRECONSTRUCTION INVESTING Before you even begin investing, you need a working knowledge of exactly what is meant by “preconstruction” investing, why has preconstruction investing generated returns in excess of 100% per year for many investors, what is the terminology used in preconstruction real estate investing, etc. Regardless if you are looking for a real estate property for investment purposes, or as a site for a future home; investing in land is proven to offer a safer and higher return on your investment than any other financial instrument available today.

Pre construction investment programs benefit the project developer by allowing them to presale the entire development property before any construction begins, allowing them to obtain the lending for the project with relative ease. In this new preconstruction project, the developer has agreed to provide a $15/Sqft discount if 20 investors make their reservations in a short period of time. There are a lot of things to consider when entering into a preconstruction investment and you are strongly encouraged to learn all the do's and don'ts.

A plot of land can only be worth the market value. Once the land is broken, the property value will start to increase. The earlier that you buy in, the less expensive the property, and thusly, the greater your final ROI. This is why an investor can often flip a property before it is finished and still make an incredible return on investment. Additionally, one has no risk if a project fails. Developers hold the money in an escrow account for such an occurrence, even though rare. You receive your money back from the developer.

Finally, preconstruction real estate is not usually advertised, so money that would have been spent on advertising is now money saved. It is primarily available through a limited number of master brokerages that sell off the properties to investors. If you are not in one of these brokerages' networks, you do not have the opportunity to purchase the property.

So how to you learn about preconstruction and the do's? One great way is though
investing clubs. At http://www.preconstructionsecrets.com/ you can get a free ebook about preconstruction and how to do it with less risk. This free ebook will explain how you can enjoy all of the extraordinary benefits listed below (and more) while maintaining complete control over every property you purchase. So why is this ebook free? Simple...they're looking for more partners. More partners equals more negotiating power with developers...and better results for everyone.

Orlando real estate Orlando real estate - The land of Disney

Yes, getting a piece of Orlando real estate is indeed a very attractive proposition. For a lot of people, buying Orlando real estate is like becoming a part of Disney or Universal Studios or just any theme park. Some others are attracted to Orlando real estate due to the moderate climatic conditions. So owning Orlando real estate speaks both of comfort and fun. Some treat Orlando real estate as an investment for their retirement. In fact a lot of people buy Orlando real estate just so that they can settle in Orlando later in their lives.

When it comes to investing in Orlando real estate, vacation homes also seem a popular thing. A number of people go for properties that are in Disney’s proximity. Renting out vacation homes is a popular thing and some people invest in Orlando real estate so that they can earn rental income till the time there decide to actually live in that property. With some tour operators offering rental guarantee, the vacation homes are gaining a lot of popularity in Orlando.

Sometimes people are even able to pay their monthly mortgage payments using the monthly rental income from the vacation homes. However, if you go looking for Orlando real estate (for getting rental income), you must make sure that you buy it as close to the theme parks as possible. That is where you will get the most in terms of rental income from your Orlando real estate investment. So, even though you might have to pay a bit more for that piece of Orlando real estate, you should also consider the fact that the rental income will also increase in the same proportion.

Moreover, going for a vacation home that is cheaper but much farther from Disney and other attractions, might not get rented out at all. So that cheaper piece of Orlando real estate might actually turn out more expensive for you. However, if you are looking to live in by yourself, then the proximity to theme parks might not be your priority. Instead you should be looking for convenience, in terms of comfort and in terms of availability of necessary amenities (and if you have kids then you would also be looking for schools etc).

Of course, other/general criteria for selection of real estate would be applicable to Orlando real estate too. So, Orlando real estate investment does seem to make a lot of sense. The only important thing is to evaluate the reason for going for Orlando real estate and then make a good decision.
