Open Question: Is there some where online i can find the letter written by the man who murdered Lucky Keyes?
I watched a movie about the legend of Lucy Keyes.I have alway been fascinated by this type of story. It is based off a true story. I went on the sites website where I found out someinfo

The following story is true:

Robert Keyes and his family moved to Princeton, Massachusetts in 1751. They purchased a large tract of land, some 200 acres, on the South-Eastern slope of Wachusett Mountain.

On April 14, 1755, Keyes’s daughter Lucy, who was 4 years old at the time, followed her sisters to fetch some sand from Wachusett Lake. Lucy never returned from the lake. She vanished in the woods that day never to be heard from again.

The towns-people made every effort to find the girl. Search parties combed the woods, the lake was dragged, all to no avail. Martha Keyes, Lucy’s mother, was pushed to the edge of insanity by her grief over losing her daughter. Every evening she searched the woods calling her daughter’s name.

Martha died in 1786. She never found Lucy.

Several years after the deaths of both Martha and Robert Keyes, a letter was found describing, in gruesome detail, the murder of little Lucy Keyes. The letter was from Tilly Littlejohn, the Keyes’s hermit-like neighbor, who was furious over a property line quarrel with Keyes. To cleanse his dying soul he admitted on his deathbed that he found the girl, Lucy, in the woods and killed her by hitting her on the head with a rock. He then stuffed her body in a hollow log and waited until nightfall to return and bury her body under an uprooted tree.

Many people believe that Martha Keyes has every reason to haunt the wooded hillsides of Wachusett Mountain calling, “Lu – cy, Lu – cy”, since she never learned the grim fate of her daughter. And witnesses still experience the spirits of both Martha and Lucy Keyes to this day.

is there some where i can find this letter online to read.Sorry this is so long.

Thanks xoxo   read more…

Open Question: How do I learn home horse care?
Well, not how to care for my horses exactly. I’ve had horses for 20 years and I’m very knowledgeable about horse care, vet care, riding and so on. But I’ve always boarded my horses and now I’m finally going to have horse property of my own. I’ve never pulled a horse trailer or hitched one to a vehicle, maintained one, etc. I don’t know anything about how to care for horse pasture, which weeds are bad, proper fencing and general grounds maintenance. Well, not totally ignorant, but I need to learn all this before putting horses there. Where can I learn this kind of thing? It’s a semi-rural area in the Salt Lake City metro area. Thank you for your help.

Open Question: How can I get my neighbors clean up there yard and house so my property value want fall ?
We dont want our property value falling like some city slum.What rules and regulations would make my property value hold and rise with inflation?
I live in a private lake club. It is a corporation of 150 acres and about a 80 acre lake. We have 25 spaces around the lake for residences, which all are field. The lake club was started in the 50,s. We have a ordinance in the corporation rules that if the yard is not mowed the corporation will hire some one to mow it and add it to there yearly dues. But there are bigger problems than high grass. Some of the homes are older and no one comes all year, they are getting run down and in need of repair. The woods they set in is full of falling trees and think brush, but they hire what yard there is to be mowed. There house is in terrible shape, trees and limbs, leaves on there deck from years past. About 4 houses like this. Most are little and well keep, old but nice, and there are several newer homes, worth several hundred thousand, these are the problem, no one wants to buy such a home with such messy neighbors and the property value of the home is half what it should be or even more. We do not own the land, we all are equal holders of the total property, we just use what we need and our yard and lake frontage has been claimed and by mutual agreement. I need some good ordinances to take before the board so we can vote in new rules to keep our property value of our homes up. Can anyone help or have any subjection’s of where I can get help?
The ones that don’t clean up there place are eather Doctors or own a gas company or more money than know what to do with. Some have mulitble houses on other lakes that I here are doing them the same way!

Whether you have money that you would like to put to work for you or you simply feel as though you need to start spending money to make money, it is time for you to look into how to invest in property, with a special interest in investing in apartment buildings. Investing in apartment buildings has gotten something of a bad rap lately, but the truth is that if you look into investing responsibly and with an eye towards a long term goal, it can actually serve you quite well. Take a moment and consider what you need to know when it comes to learning to invest wisely and well. It might be much less complicated than you think!

When you are thinking about how to invest in property, you need to create a plan for yourself. Far too many people simply go into it buying properties left and right and before they know it, there is no money when it comes to maintaining the properties or making them more attractive. This is why having a plan can be instrumental to getting the right results. How much can you invest and how much can you afford to lose? How long can you go without gaining a profit as you are setting things up? These are all questions that you need to ask yourself before you get started with investing, and getting the right answers can be crucial to your success.

Remember that the cost to invest doesn’t just end with the purchase of the property. Investing in property means that you are going to need to think about how you can take care of the property as well. Are you someone who has the time and the expertise to manage an apartment building on your own? Investing in apartment buildings often means investing in a management company as well, unless you are willing to put your time and effort into managing it yourself. Remember that you also need to think about things like repairs, cleaning when tenants move out and making sure that the property taxes are paid.

When you are thinking about investing in apartment buildings, make sure that you think about how you are going to be able to get to know the area. What kind of tenants can you expect? A building that mostly has young urban professionals staying in it is going to be a much different investment than the kind that will mostly have college students coming in and out. What kind of turnover are you thinking about and what kind of options do you have to consider?

Take a moment and remember that when you are looking at how to invest in property that you are looking at the long game. You need to think about where you are going to be in the next five years or the next ten years. This might affect your ability to invest and when you do it, but it is always better to make plans and to see what risks and rewards might be awaiting you.

It used to be that the only way to rent a house was empty and unfurnished. Nowadays, more and more houses are available for rent fully furnished. However, renting a furnished house comes with it’s own set of considerations. Of course, the ways you attract and screen a tenant are the same, but that’s where the similarity ends. Some things to keep in mind when you’re considering getting into furnished rentals are as follows:

1. On average, a furnished rental can be rented for 25 to 50% more than an unfurnished one. In a market such as Vancouver, where making positive income from rental properties can be a challenge, this can be a huge advantage. However, the cost of furnishing a rental (usually about $10,000) is just the start of the additional costs involved with a furnished rental. All of the monthly utilities such as water, hydro, gas, telephone, cable, internet and so on are your responsibility, not your tenant’s. Security deposits also tend to be higher since there are more things in the unit that could end up being damaged. These days, regular cleaning services also come with many furnished rentals, which would also be paid for by the landlord.

2. What does “fully furnished” mean? Well, it means a person only has to bring their clothes and personal possessions to the house, since you are providing everything else like:

– all cookware, dishes, glasses and utensils,

– appliances like blenders, coffee makers, food processors,

– sheets and towels,

– cleaning supplies like brooms, vacuums, and shovels (if applicable),

– things that used to be considered luxury items (like cable TV and wireless Internet). Furnished property should be stocked as nicely as a hotel room.

3. Remember that different people have different needs. Oftentimes, you’ll need to provide things you hadn’t anticipated, such as a crib, highchair, or a special computer desk. Desks are especially important since more and more people are working from home these days. Keep in mind that you could rent the extra items from furniture rental companies rather than buying them.

4. Remember, this is not where YOU live. Don’t leave anything personal in the house, especially prized possessions or paintings of your family that could possibly be damaged.

5. Create a detailed checklist of what is in the property in preparation for the tenant walk through. Go from room to room, ensuring you note ALL details. In the kitchen, record all appliances and count the number of glasses, plates, mugs etc. that you are providing for the new tenants. Record the number of towels, pieces of furniture and paintings and their condition. If something is broken or stolen you will need a record of what was there in order to use their deposit to buy a replacement. You’ll want your tenant to sign this when they move in, and then you’ll want to do a detailed inventory of everything again when they move out.

6. Buy extra boxes of breakable items. i.e. an extra box of plates, an extra box of mugs and glasses. If it can break easily, be prepared to replace it easily!! It’s a good idea to furnish your unit with items from stores that are inexpensive and will always have a large inventory of the same pattern i.e. Ikea, so that you can ensure that you will always have matching sets.

Renting a furnished property will definitely give you a big advantage in the Vancouver market (or any other market) where it’s normally difficult to make a significant monthly rental income. With the Vancouver Winter Olympics are right around the corner and many people are considering renting out their houses to make some cash, or turning their unfurnished rental units into furnished units. If you are considering doing this, please keep my advice in mind; I hope that the lessons that I learned will help you be more successful.

Most people browse the web for properties, to get a quick picture of what is on offer and what kind of prices they will have to pay. Hence there has been a great demand for properties viewed on the web and an increase in video marketing. Video marketing is far more effective than pictures, photos and descriptions and hence social marketing through videos is gaining much importance.

There is no substitute to videos that has the potential to provide the users with a firsthand experience of properties along with a well-made home tour in the form of a video. This virtual touring as a form of property promotion makes a favorable impression on the minds of potential buyers and investors. Thus, video marketing will always be useful.

With the help of video marketing, along with the property listings you can also provide to the users positive attributes of the neighborhood and also present to them a professional profile of your real estate team and business. This method is affordable as well as suitable and can meet all sorts of budget for social marketing. If you compare this method with conventional marketing channels then you will realize it is a lot more beneficial and useful. It is cheaper than outdoor (billboard and bench), print materials, radio, TV, flyers and many other options of social marketing.

To make a video for use on the web about your real estate property is a difficult job and requires some techniques and skills in video operations. Crafting a commendable video that is pertinent, authentic and compelling to the viewers can be quite demanding. Research statistics disclose that of the millions of videos that are viewed on YouTube every day, the time of viewing is less than 10 seconds for the videos. This is mainly due to the inadequacy of videos in meeting the necessities of the viewers. Your video marketing must keep all this in mind and should be relevant.

For successful video marketing you should be aware of a few facts like the content of the video that you create. We all know video content is highly portable in character so, one must try the best way to provide it with the exposure that it needs. To give it that exposure you can use an effective and calculative distribution strategy like placing your videos on the sites that are popular and visited by a large group of people. Active Rain, Facebook and YouTube are some of them.

For effective video marketing, you can consider using a video camcorder. There are numerous high quality and expensive video solutions available in the market. However, many real estate professionals prefer the Flip Video Camcorder for its affordability and simplicity.

If you are into the habit of using free sites to upload videos for your real estate video marketing then you must make sure you have the best control of your official video files, better techniques of distributing them and for maintaining their quality as well. There is a sharing solution and paid storage available named as screencast.com for doing it.

Before you actually implement your video marketing strategy, it is recommended that you do some homework and research on it. You should learn how to enhance your business exposure with the method of video syndication. It is a beneficial solution that can place your real estate videos with a single upload operation. You can also link your property listing client charts displaying the views and opinions of their own listings on these websites. Video marketing can be a useful tool for social marketing if is implemented properly.

Marketing for real estate agents is not as easy as one might think it to be. It might have been easy years ago or probably even two or five years ago but today things have changed. The biggest reason driving this is competition. There is more competition today than they ever was before. You don’t know if you can survive in a market where many realtors are closing shop on an almost daily basis so you need to come up with something that really helps.

Much of what people thought worked don’t work any more because now those techniques and ways of doing things are out dated. If you want to survive in today’s market you need to be innovative and you need to keep faith in your business and in your order if you really want to succeed at marketing for real estate agents.

Holding on to the basics of your business can be challenging but its imperative. You need to be able to look for the right answers in the right place. When looking for answers you need to discard holding to your particulars. You also need to be able to come up with new and winning formulas which will steer you to the success you need in marketing for real estate agents.

There are probably numerous parts of your formula that does not work any more. So you must be willing and able to reinvent the way you think about marketing for real estate agents and open yourself to new ideas. Remember that a good idea can come from anywhere even your janitor might come up with a good idea if you are open to it.

You need to come with a strategy that will help you win over all others in your industry. You need to think about what you can do better and differently from all the others in your field. You also need to find a niche which is profitable yet not as competitive as the ones you are currently targeting when it comes to marketing for real estate agents.

It also really helps if you come up with a new brand identify. This can be a challenge but if done successfully you can breath new life into your old business when it comes to marketing for real estate agents. Take the example of Microsoft’s live search which is not bing. Microsoft reinvented the way it thought about search and gave life search a brand new funky sort of identity and it has actually caught on.

Learn from your competitors mistakes and also have the heart to try new things. Experimentation often leads to something you never even thought about when it comes to marketing for real estate agents.

In today’s economy, you may think that investing in real estate is the last thing you should do. And while that may very well be true for the housing market in general, in that single-family homes are still taking a dive at least temporarily, one of the best and most overlooked ways to get into the real estate market and MAKE money these days is by utilizing property investment opportunities, one of which is buying apartment buildings.

Now, I can hear you saying, “Uh-uh, too risky,” but think about that for a minute. With the housing market taking a dive, and with people losing their homes in record numbers through foreclosure, those people are going to need some place to live, even once they’re back on their financial feet; that’s because even when they do recover, it’ll take some time before they can afford to buy another home.

Beyond that, even people with good credit and good financial histories are struggling to buy homes, because lenders are increasingly pulling back the opportunity for people of modest incomes or moderate incomes especially to invest in their first homes.

Now, that’s not to say that if you pursue property investment opportunities, you’re going to embrace renters with poor financial histories. Of course not. Still, with the demand for apartment rentals growing, this is an absolutely lucrative opportunity for you to take advantage of now, and one of the best ways you can do that is through buying apartment buildings.

No day-to-day tenant management necessary, either

Now, if you like people and you like dealing with tenants on a daily basis, of course you can pursue property investment opportunities whereby you manage tenants yourself. However, if you really want to get into buying apartment buildings but you don’t want to deal with tenants day to day, that’s where management companies can help. You can pursue property investment opportunities, and then hire management companies to take care of day-to-day operations. Pretty simple, right? All while you get to sit back and simply watch your money roll in.

Jump on this opportunity while the getting is good

Because so many people are skittish about property investment opportunities, including rentals, it’s a wide-open field that you should consider getting in on before people discover just what a secure sector of real estate this actually is. If you wait, you may just find yourself out of luck because one of two things — or both — can happen. Number one, the housing sector may recover enough that people will cease to want to rent and go back to wanting to own their own homes so that suddenly, there is a sudden “emptying” of the rental sector in the real estate market, and/or number two, people discover just what lucrative and secure sector this is and you’ll have lots and lots of competition; in short, you could actually miss the boat. So why wait? Get in on this opportunity now.

Leasing an inexpensive apartment can be a trying task. So many landlords want you to pay an arm and a leg to live in a quality apartment, but that is not always the case. If you are willing to devote some time and effort to searching for the perfect inexpensive apartment you will likely be pleasantly surprised at what you uncover.

If price is your number one consideration you will have to strongly consider what amenities are wants that you can live without and what amenities are needs that are absolutely non-negotiable. For instance, it is generally easier to find inexpensive rent for an apartment that does not have a washer, dryer, and dishwasher in the unit. Having these appliances in the unit generally increases its value and therefore increases the rental price.

Location is the next huge thing to consider when trying to find a cheap apartment. Living in the middle of a large city is almost always more expensive than living in the suburbs. You will have to consider where you want to live and whether or not you can find an apartment in your price range that offers the amenities that you decided were absolutely necessary to have. If you find that your expectations are unrealistic you should take a step back and reconsider both amenities and location.

Once you have decided upon a realistic combination of amenities and location you should look for private owners that are renting out their apartments. Apartment complexes tend to have more overhead than an individual that owns just a few apartments and is renting them out on his or her own. Additional overhead for the apartment complex means higher rental prices for you. For this reason it is advised that you start looking for ads of privately owned apartments for rent along the streets that you would like to live and in the local newspapers.

After these steps have been completed the next thing to do is to contact the landlords of the apartments you are interested in and actually go take a look at the apartment. Make sure that you flush the toilets, turn on the faucets, and open and close cabinet and closet doors in the apartment to ensure that they are all in good working order. You should also inspect the apartment for water damage and pests. There are many quality apartments for rent at an inexpensive price but you will need to do some looking and will probably have to check out a lot of apartments before finding one that is a good deal and is also a safe dwelling.

Do you have any property that you want to rent out? Are you going to do it yourself? Take my advice and hire the services of a fully managed service for letting out the property. This is an excellent suggestion as you will get the entire technical work done by the professionals and you will not have to worry about it.

Fully managed services are exceptionally fruitful for the new landlords. Fully managed service offers many features but depends upon your requirements and the abilities of the service provider.

Many reasons for a landlord to opt for a completely managed service are there. For those people who have other business matters to attend to, fully managed service is ideal. When you go for a completely managed facility, the representatives visit your property to see the different aspects of the property, as the service performs the task of advertising the property and looking for the tenants.

You should know that advertising of the property is only one of the jobs they do for you; they will also scrutinise the possible tenants who are going to occupy your property with their expert perspective. They will advise to you to let your property to a tenant whom they think suitable. Nevertheless, the final word is yours they are just the intermediary link in the whole process.

Another painful job, which shall be hard for you, is to look after your property after it has been rented out. They are ready to do this job for you. They will keep track of your assets and property and shall perform the maintenance work, if required with out your personal involvement.

The service providers assure the major task of collecting the rent and the landlords do not have to worry about it at all. They prepare the lease agreement and completely fulfil the legal requirements to secure your benefits in any case with the future tenants.

Fully managed services are very much the first point of contact for the tenants as well as the landlords, and services are offered on a twenty-four hour basis in case of emergencies. Before the property is let out, a fully managed service performs a check about the electricity and gas facilities and the condition of other facilities.

In case maintenance is required at the property, they will arrange for it. You will not have to bother about such repairs or maintenance as it is being done on your behalf. After repairs, your property is handed over to a tenant, and then they it is their responsibility to keep a regular check on the item and maintain it in a regular order. They will collect the rent and deliver it to you. If you are a busy person and you own a property that you intend to rent out, then hiring a fully managed service is a fine choice. This will save you a lot of time and hassle. They will seek the answers to every trouble regarding the property and shall manage it accordingly for you.

It’s always a good idea to talk to Parker realtors before you decide to purchase a new home in the area. 20 miles Southeast of Denver is Parker Colorado which has attracted new residents for a number of years. Its small, family community is preferable for many people traveling to the area, but it still provides all of the entertainment and shopping you are searching for nearby. New home owners will also be fascinated by the fresh mountain air and beautiful scenery that the Rocky Mountains have to offer.

Parker realtors can tell you all about the cities fascinating history, which started out as a stage stop and railroad depot for trains from Denver in 1863. Parker is no longer just a small train depot as it houses more than 45,000 people. The town replaced the Pine Grove Way Station with Parker Station which still continues operations. Parker still offers its trademark 5 globe street lights that you can view while walking downtown.

Your new home in Parker will have to take into consideration your budget and what type of home you want. Parker realtors will know exactly where to look to find the house that is best for you. Parker has several communities that offer multiple styles of homes such as conventional smaller homes and larger ranch style homes. Homes in Parker average around $300,000 and condos average out to be about $150,000. Compared to living in Denver you may find this to fit your budget better.

You should also ask Parker realtors about the amenities each community has to offer. The city is home to The University Center at Chaparral and Arapahoe Community College, but the University of Phoenix – Colorado Campus and Community College of Aurora are only 15 miles away as well. The Parker recreational department is often praised for its veracious parks, paved trails, and the well known H2O’Brien water park. Parker also offers public activities that your family can enroll in. Children may find the in-line skating rink and indoor turf field a great place to go.

Every year numerous landlords suffer with financial crisis due to their poor effort in selection of any suitable or professional letting agents, agencies or the tenants. These landlords meet their disastrous end for checking the standing of an agent incorrectly or doing the preceding check for appointing any agency for their property matters. They avoid checking the details, which is a great flaw in their planning. In England and its peripheries, it has become a real tough job to pick any proper letting agency. Still, you can have some security only if you can follow certain set of rules in this regard.

Be realistic and do not consider every one as loyal to you. You must have your own checks about the property and the agents you are going to hire. They are not straight away going to hand you over the rent with out their own interest. Therefore, it is strongly advised to get the maximum knowledge about the agents or the agencies before handing over the keys of your property. You must formulate a counter check system and make sure you have a written legal contract, which should also be endorsed by the concerned authorities.

Some landlords do not give the task of appointing a letting agent any importance, through whom they can take care of their property matters. This negligence results in the suffering of numerous landlords in shape of bad tenants and inappropriate legal documentations. They cannot get their rents in time, and sometimes they are found liable for the fines.

Hiring any inappropriate agent is like nailing your own coffin. This step is the most imperative of all and at the same time, this is the hardest part. The experienced and reputed agents give great weight to the process of selecting the tenant who would not cause any trouble in the case of monthly rental or any damage to the property.

In addition to the above-mentioned dilemma, you should be prepared for all the maintenance of your property without getting any income. There have been cases where tenants run away without paying the rent, because the agent have not secured the landlord’s interest due to his inexperience. You can at least secure yourself, and get the damages recovered from the agent, but you must have a legal contract with him or his agency.

You must put a lot of intent in picking a good agent or agency, in fact you should choose from the members of recognised industry body that assures you of quality services. You must have a look at their reputation in the field and ask them about their procedure of getting a tenant. For example, if they bring the tenants on their own, or they are inclined to get the services of any referring agencies.

It is strongly suggested that you must check that whether they know the location and the area of your land and if they have any previous experience in that exacting area. You must not settle upon any charges unless you see their schedule of service charges. Before going to them, check the charges of other concerned agencies of similar category dealing the same kind of cases.

In case you do not want the services of any agent, then there is a big risk for you and you need to take a lot of care in opting for any tenant. You must know all the background and reputation of the probable tenant and make a written agreement for your own safety. You must know the tenant’s affordability level so that you could asses his ability to pay you rent. Check their past records with the legal authorities, police records, and the places they have worked before.
