Commercial Real Estate...and We Need Your Input !

Hi Everyone,


   Hope you had a nice and peaceful weekend. As for me, having a toddler, the word "peaceful" does not exist !

   We wanted to announce a few new things currently and on the horizon. First, we have created a new RSS Feed with all of our Press Releases, that covers our news, press and media, regarding rent to own and real estate in general. It is freely available at this link

   Next, for those of you who have placed your buildings, stores, apartments, and land available Ads in the "Homes Available" Section, please note that your exposure would be much better in the Commercial Real Estate section. Please let us know if you would like your Ads moved over to the Commercial Property section.

   Now, we want to turn things over to you, and we have a few questions. For all of those who respond via comments on this Blog or via E-mail, we will send you a small token of our appreciation (please provide your E-mail address along with your correspondence).

Question #1: Would you be interested in seeing additional countries added to the website? If so, which ones and why?
Question #2: Are there any Social Networks that you would like to see us on that we are NOT on currently?
Question #3: What other topics would you like to see discussed on our Blog? Please be specific.

   As mentioned above: If you answer any (or all) of the above either via comments on this Blog OR via E-mail, along with your E-mail reply address, we will send you over a small token of our appreciation.

Have a Great Day and Happy Rent-to-Owning !

Facebook, Twitter, Podcast...

Hi All,

Hope you had a great week!

We just finished up with an interview for a new website focusing on home buyers in the 20-35 year old range, and that article should be out late month (or early June), so we will keep you posted.

It's been a really quiet week in terms of Economic News for the Real Estate/Rent to Own Market. We are just watching the market and that horrendous spill in the Gulf.
We pray that they cap it before it damages the wildlife and the local Gulf businesses. As a side/personal note - Gulf Shrimp and Gulf Oysters have always been my weakness.

We have just had our Facebook profile shortened to a much prettier address:
http://www.facebook.com/homerunhomes, and as some of you already know, our Twitter Address is: http://www.twitter.com/homerunhomes

Do you see a pattern emerging in the naming?


OK, so a News Flash: We are boldly looking to endeavor into the world of Podcasting, which for those of you who are not aware of them, they are basically Blog Posts, but in a voice recording that you can download and play on your Ipod or MP3 player.

Now, I am not crazy about my recorded voice, however, a lot of you have spoken and asked me to do this. So the answer is, "Yes", I will give it a try.

If our team is able to successfully organize the techie side of it, I will post the Podcast here on the Blog. Apparently, this saves a lot of time when you can listen to the Blog as opposed to reading it. Please be patient as we try to figure this one out - I'm off to do some voice exercises now (kidding).

Please check back Monday for more news!
Have a great weekend, and Happy Rent-to-Owning !

Pending Home Sales and Real Estate Trouble Spots

Hi Everyone,

Hope everyone had a healthy and productive week. Not only is Friday upon us, but yes...May is upon us !

Living on the East Coast has it's perks, and being a couple hours away from Atlantic City is one of them. That is if you enjoy that kind of stuff. I came across an article citing Atlantic City as one of "Tomorrow's Real Estate Trouble Spots". No surprise that Atlantic City, N.J., is on top of the list, however, I always thought that aside from the Casinos, the area outside of the bright lights was depressed, in terms of home prices and the economy. So, basically, it's more of a yesterday and today "Trouble Spot". As a side note, this was from a survey of 315 cities, so the sampling size they used was pretty large, and it carries some weight with it.

We have been doing a lot of internal work on our site, in terms of aesthetics and our database. We will have a new Press Release coming out next week, and we'll be sure to notify everyone here regarding it.

Next Week (Tuesday, May 4Th), The Pending Home Sales Index numbers will be released, and this should be reflecting the tax credit for (new) home buyers.

Finally, for additional background on our Rent to Own website and a peak at our history, please read more about us here: http://www.lease2buy.com/rent-to-own-homes.php

A lot of exciting and cool stuff coming next week - so stay tuned.
Have a Great Weekend, and Happy Rent-to-Owning !

We have completely redesigned and updated the Top Spot/Featured Ad Pages for the following types of Ads:

Both upgrade options are available either upon placing an Ad, OR, via your Login/Control Panel (from the "Log In" button on the homepage, or directly via http://www.lease2buy.com/login.php). When you log in and "View" your Ads, there will be a "FEATURE/SHOWCASE THIS AD" option next to the Ad.

Remember: There is only ONE "TOP SPOT" Featured Ad per State (we can only allow one on the top of each State without it getting cluttered).

When you log into your account (from the "Log In" button on the homepage, or directly via http://www.lease2buy.com/login.php), there is a button that says, "Survey".

If you click that button and fill out a short survey with your very useful comments/questions, not only will this be very helpful to us, but we will also add one extra month to the Ad you have placed!!

How's that for a sweet deal?

When we receive your comments and questions (on anything - the site, the design, suggestions, the market - anything), if they require a response, we will reply.

If it is an incredible question or comment, we might even post it here on the blog and respond to it here, especially if it is something that can help everyone.
