Where Can I Get A Good Grant Writer?
People ask me frequently if I know of a good grant writer. I used to think that it was possible to find an excellent grant writer by going on one of the many websites, such as http://www.elance.com or http://www.guru.com and finding someone who is highly experienced in complying with the forms, formats and the rules of the various grants that are available for businesses, non-profits, and other organizations.

Have We Hit The Bottom?
In November 2009, I said that the bottom is a historical concept (http://tinyurl.com/yk3zfmb) and that "the only time you ever know where the bottom of the market was is by reading the paper a week, a month, or a year after that bottom has occurred." Instead of focusing on the bottom, let's look for trends that point to the market moving north. I'll start by offering a good one.

Real Estate Syndication: Does A New World Need a New Way?

Couldn't Everybody Use A Buddy?
This weekend our family saw the new movie "The Blind Side", starring Sandra Bullock. What an extraordinary and uplifting movie! Her performance was great, and there were a couple of other breakout roles that you will recognize when you see the movie. But, this column isn't about the movie. The column is about the social commentary that the movie presents.

Is Social Networking Making Us Less Social?
I love social networking. Facebook, LinkedIn, and all of the different tools that are out there to help us connect and re-connect are great. I have re-connected with friends from high school and college who I had completely lost track of. I even reconnected with some of my very good junior high school buddies and incredibly, the Internet also helped me to re-connect with my long lost, best friend from elementary school.

What Is The Best Way To Buy Real Estate?
There probably isn't any question asked of me more often then if now is a good time to buy real estate. It's my opinion that everyone in the investment community knows that there are more distressed assets for sale now than in recent memory. And I am not talking about only distressed real estate assets. I'm talking about distressed assets in every asset class.
