2011/12/15-2012/2/6 [Reference/RealEstate, Industry/Jobs] UID:54260 Activity:nil | 12/15 Does anyone have experience investing in apartment buildings
I'm not really looking to invest, but I want an apartment
to live in, and I'm not happy with the leases I'm encountering

2009/8/20-9/1 [Reference/RealEstate] UID:53293 Activity:moderate | 8/20 I'm researching into properties around San Jose. They say that the

2009/3/19-23 [Reference/RealEstate, Reference/Tax] UID:52732 Activity:high | 3/19 Communist/Socialist House reps pass bill taxing bonuses at 90% for that
portion of the bonus that pushes you over, for individuals, total AGI
> $125K ($250K married) working at an entity which took >= $5B in TARP
money. A disgrace to meritocracy. Cost of living in Manhattan is
