Rosetta Houses
2009-09-17 10:26:00 I spoke about the Rosetta old houses before when I was wondering about that old house forgotten by the ministry of culture and the supreme council of antiquities despite other houses in the city were restored and inaugurated by Mubarak last year. This slideshow will show you how beautiful the old houses of Rosetta are and how the Tawakitty house can be so beautiful too if the ministry of culture remembers it. Some people will consider this an achievement of Farouk Hosni and I tell them , well this is the least thing he can do , already this is his job to look after our national heritage ,the heritage which has been stolen , attacked and destroyed for the past 20 years.

Foreclosure Crisis Aggravated Due to Missing Fixtures of Houses
2009-09-10 16:32:00 The region of Avondale experienced a home sale at $165,000 while the original price of the house was $416,000. The reason behind such a drastic fall in the prices is the aspect of fixture theft in the various regions as the thieves are making a profit out of it. John Lincoln, the real-estate agent selling such houses to the buyers commented that, “These are fixtures that are supposed to be part of the house. They basically took $30,000 out of the kitchen and left.” The special agent, Julie Halferty working on the Phoenix FBI Mortgage Fraud Task Force observed that no one can be blamed for these missing fixtures as it is very hard to signify if these fixtures have been stolen by the family members who left the house of by the neighbours. Kim Baker, the Tempe real-estate agent assumes that, “Without question, probably 85 to 90 percent of houses on the market under $200,000 have been stripped. “Appliances are the most commonly poached item, but plumbing fixtures...

Hanging Houses of Cuenca
2009-09-01 20:59:00 Cuenca is a Spanish city, capital of the Cuenca province, in Castile-La Mancha. It's a small city with 50,000 inhabitants and very famous for ther monuments: The hanging houses, the Cathedral and other churches. It is situated over the Jucar river, near the Serrania of Cuenca.The history and exact origin of The Hanging Houses is unclear. Some believe they are of Muslim origin, while others say they are Medieval. Centuries ago, this kind of building was frequently seen throughout Cuenca, but nowadays only three ?Casas Colgadas? remain, built in a cliff, above Huecar Gorge.La Casa de la Sirena (House of the Mermaid) and the two Casas de Rey (Houses of Kings) were built somewhere between the 13th and 15th centuries and have been renovated in the 20th century. Now the houses host the Museum of Abstract Arts and a restaurant, but they remain the most photographed landmarks in Cuenca.

Flipping Houses for Profit
2009-08-27 12:30:00 I’ve mentioned before in a book review that I was, at one point, very interested in flipping houses for profit. What do I mean by flipping houses? It means to purchase houses that need cosmetic (or more) work selling for well under market value, upgrade them, and sell them for profit (hopefully) in a relatively short period of time. Sounds pretty easy in theory, but flippers can get way over their head if they don’t know what they are doing. From reading a few books on flipping, watching various flipping TV shows and speaking with local investors, it seems that one critical step is running the numbers as accurately as possible before purchasing the property to ensure that the project is financially viable. The profit on a flipping endeavor is made when you buy which perhaps makes it the most important step. That is, the lower the purchase price of the house itself, the higher your potential profit margin. The Process Evaluate the House – Once you find ...

Earth Houses
2008-06-30 06:57:00 Earth House projects from Erdhaus, swiss architect and team. Compared to traditional residential houses built on the ground, the aim of building an earth house is another: Not to live under or in the ground, but with it. The earth house is a flexible construction which can be built according to the wishes of its owners, fulfilling the need for individuality, environmentally friendly construction and energy saving. The earth house concept uses its surroundings as an advantage – the surroundings are not adapted to the building, the house is shaped in order to preserve the natural environment. Modern earth-house architecture incorporates the latest interior finishing, such as contemporary kitchens, bathrooms and house-control systems. TYTKA - The funniest stuff

O.C. houses off $199,000 from peak in mid-May
2008-06-06 18:04:00 Latest homebuying stats from DataQuick, for the 22 business days ended May 20, show modest sales strength, with O.C. deals closed still running above 2,000 residences — a level not seen from September to March.

Banned from buying houses, foreigners opt for long lease
2008-06-06 08:41:00 With the Goa state government ?banning foreigners from buying properties in the state?, local builders have fine tuned their strategies and are promoting five-year leases among tourists. There are no official figures to prove the trend, but lawyers and builders agree that this is definitely increasing, with several builders from the state organizing road shows and exhibitions in UK to attract customers to Goa. But something needs to be done as houses are being leased to foreigners at a huge price, making it difficult for Goans to invest in homes. Purchasing of property by foreigners has come to a standstill and it?s difficult to execute any deed of sale as the procedure is no longer simple, thus forcing them to seek options like lease, if they intend to stay for long periods in the state. Non-residents require permission from Reserve Bank of India to purchase a house or property in Goa. ?But if the foreigner stays 182 days in India and shows the intention to reside for indefinite pe...
