A joke, then a serious matter

First off look at this:

At three minutes and four seconds after 2 AM on the 6th of May this year, the time and date will be

02:03:04 05/06/07.

Isnt that interesting?
I thought so. This is what amuzes people when they are working in a cubicle for to long... i miss windows and sunlight!

Anyway, this week was intense with researching for a good design. It smacked me in the face when I discovered I had already several good websites to discuss on. Lately I have been looking to invest in real-estate. I have been searchin from website to website and gathering information.
Some where a whole lot better that others....
Then I realized that would be a perfect blog to write about it!
Here is what i discovered in my research for a new business.

I found that it was extremely easy to find some prices and get some information on the market on this website:
http://www.realtor.com/
It gave me a damn good idea on certain homes and areas. But nothing commercial. It gave me all sorts of details on certain houses. Estimated monthly payment, interior descriptions, pictures and if i wanted to contact a realtor to buy the home. For example :
http://homes.realtor.com/search/listingdetail.aspx?lid=1077238266&fhv=1
Interesting if I wanted to buy a home, but not for investing in property to create some good ROI.

Now, this website:
http://www.cityfeet.com/pittsburgh/
Was a little less sophisticated and pretty annoying in certain occasions. Looked like a cheap version of the previous website. But it still had some valuable information. Has great property information
For example:
http://www.cityfeet.com/CommercialRealEstateForLease/DetailedListing.aspx?PartnerPath=Pittsburgh/&UserListingId=494278

But it wasnt as friendly or well designed as the previous website. Is it because the other is aimed for families and these for any random fool with money to waste in some property?

My favorite, just because of the amount of foreclosure properties they had, was this website
http://www.realtytrac.com/freeSearch.asp?accnt=68991&StateSel=IL
but it has several pop-ups.... which were really annoying!
but for the young investor, i think it works out just fine.
Give everything you need to know to get some good property and at good price:
http://www.realtytrac.com/freePropDetails.asp?pageNum=1&propId=12053227&accnt=68991&selstatus=D

Now how does this compare to the family friendly website that i mentioned at the beginning... hmmm...
would it be the same audience? honestly not sure...
Seems reasonable to believe it. but somehow a family thats looking to invest 700k in a house would visit the first website, and a family that can only manaage to afford around 250k would look at this website.
Or even real-estate companies to destroy a building and make more condos of course.

well thats my review for the week!
thanks for reading
