Gilbert's Cosmo Park ranked "Best Dog Park" in the US! Gilbert's Cosmo Park is the best all-around dog park in the country for 2007, according to a monthly dog magazine's recently released rankings. Dog Fancy, which considers itself "the world's most widely read dog magazine," praised Cosmo Park for its doggie exercise equipment, man-made lake and beach area, and amenities catering toward dog owners.

Desert Ridge Parcel sells at land auction today  

A 269-acre parcel near Desert Ridge Marketplace sold today for a record price in an Arizona State Land Department Auction.  It sold for the appraised price of $149 million.  This parcel had been on the auction block in the fall of 2006 and failed to sell due to the slowing market.  The record sale shows the outlook is getting rosier. Desert Ridge Holdings purchased the property and plans to put 3,700 housing units on it.

Most of those units will be luxury apartments. There will be 2,800 apartments and other

*CONSUMER WARNING: KNOW WHO YOU ARE WORKING WITH!!!* I just took a heartbreaking call....

A lady contacted us via our website about a home we have available for lease-purchase.  They have a home in Phoenix, but wanted to move into a larger home.  In March, she called off of an ad she saw for a "lender", who told them their credit was too poor to move up - but he could "help" them.  For $2,000 cash, he could improve their credit in 2 months - enough to be able to purchase a home!  And wouldn't you know it, he knew JUST the home for them - he referred her to a "client" of his, who had a home in

WHY would I want to lease-purchase?! A lease-purchase is a way for buyers who aren’t quite ready to buy a home yet secure one, and save up for closing costs and/or a down payment.  This is a great option if you need time to repair credit, save up for closing costs, or try out an area BEFORE you buy! How does a lease-purchase work?   Once you have identified your home, you would enter into a lease-purchase agreement with the seller.  It will detail your rent amount, how much of that rent will be applied towards your purchase, and how long you have to purchase the home. Typically, you make a small down payment.

Hello!

We were innundated with requests for more info on the MODEL HOME LEASEBACKS we posted about over the weekend!  We have since sold them - sorry - but we are forming a database of investors.  As we hear of new opportunities, we will e-mail anyone who expresses interest with full details! 

Model Home Leasebacks are a great way to cash flow an investment property - they typically pay 8-12% annually in rent, and you could not hope for better 'tenants' - the home builders pay on time, and take fantastic care of the home - because they want to be able to sell more of them!  Leases are guaranteed for 12+ months,
