iPhone Blogging

So I wanted to see how blogging from ones iPhone works? Do I really have things that are that important to say?

As the saying goes you are the smartest one in the room, until you open your mouth.

Catch 22

I wanted to take a moment and define the meaning of catch 22.
My reasoning for this is two fold. One, I hear the phrase used and I believe it is being used out of context to its real meaning and two, to see if it was me using it out of its true meaning.

As I hypothesized The first was to be true.

A situation in which a desired outcome or solution is impossible to attain because of a set of inherently illogical rules or conditions.

With that said I was pondering the relevance to the phrase catch 22 to our current economic bail out package being proposed and put into effect by our fearless leaders in Washington. I only hope it works however I do feel we are in a catch 22. I do not see how bailing out the individuals that created this mess is going to fix anything. Hey I have lost a ton of money on my investment, I am down more then 50% across the board, is the federal government going to bail me out? You can make a check out to James Baxter and mail it to my office (see address below). It looks more like the beginning stages of socialism then a bail out package, and we all know how well socialism works.

Ah heck maybe I am looking at this all wrong, maybe socialism would be a good thing - we all get paid the same no matter what work we do eah. So my new job will be a full time dad and again you can mail the checks to my office. I think that will do just fine.

Cheers,
James Baxter

Is now the time to buy?

"Is now the time to buy?"

As a Realtor in the San Diego area I get this question a lot. As with any major purchase it really depends on you, the buyer.

Bottom line, real estate has always been a excellent investment.
That is not to say that it does not have short terms ups and downs.
However over the long term it has always done well.

My question to you the buyer, What are your motivations?

Are you looking for a quick flip, to make a quick buck?
Well, you will be hard pressed to find it.

Are you looking for a place to raise your family for the next 5, 10 or even 20 years?
Are you looking for a long term investment property?
If this is the case you will do great buying right now.
Interest rates are at the lowest levels that they have ever been.
Real estate prices are near an all time low.
It is planetary alignment in the Real Estate world.
Low interest rates and low home prices.

If you would like more info feel free to contact me, it's what I do:
