NE Ohio Economic Tidbits

You may have heard that there was a study (isn’t there always!) which ranked economic (job) changes from June to July this year. According to that study, we were a ’6′ improvement, which as it turns out, was not too bad. There is a Buckeye Institute site that gets to the nitty gritty of our [...]]]>

Is Cleveland One of The Best Places To Buy a Foreclosed Property? Some People Think So

The criteria is not based on how many are available, but (as Market Watch states): The selected locations offer an average sales price discount of at least 35% on foreclosure purchases, positive year-over-year growth in median home prices and relatively low unemployment rates.

It’s the home of the [...]]]>

Frontier Broadband Will Become Available in Ohio

Somewhere around the Fourth of July, I read that Verizon had joined forces with Frontier for broadband Internet services. I was wondering how things were progressing. Would it become available in Ohio? How is the service? It seemed like a good idea, based solely on the fact that there would be more competition for services [...]]]>

Foreclosed Homes: A Good Investment?

It depends. Michael Murphy analyzes the issue in a recent article for Market Watch. He says it’s a great time to buy real estate (foreclosed or short sale). He says some markets may be different, and some people may think he’s telling people to do this now and that’s too soon. I agree with him, [...]]]>
