Were the Mayans correct? Is this the home of the future, if there is a future? Check the last picture of the vacated silo, wouldn't this be a little too creepy, 9 stories of rusty dead space. Would likely make me think of Aliens every time I looked in there.

Found this and had to share. Does anyone here have this listing? Or a listing of equivalent security? If the CDC is preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse, shouldn't we also?
Apocalypse Is For Sale
Matt Stopera Reports on Culture Buzz Situated deep within the Adirondack State Park in Upstate New York, this cabin was built atop a cold-war era missile silo and is currently on the market for only $1.75 million dollars. It's basically perfect for surviving any sort of end of the world scenario.
The above-ground home is 2,000 square feet. But if you use the keypad entry to the basement, you’ll find 2,300 more square feet that was a former launch control center and has been converted with dining and entertainment space and two bedroom suites – complete with marble bathrooms. It has 10-foot tall ceilings, simulated daylight and an open floor plan.

Inside the missile silo. It's 9-story structure where a missile was once housed. It’s currently empty, but would be perfect for underground condos.
Pretty secure don't you think? No Zombies will get in here.

It has happened again. Buyers can be told, but for some reason they do not get it. Until we have an endorsed contract, we do not have a deal. Words mean nothing. We had an agreement, the counter was presented, all the buyer had to do was initial the…

Our dinner conversation this evening was reminiscing on what Halloween was to us as kids, and what we used to do to scare ourselves. My group used to seek out abandoned homes, or barns, in the surrounding MD countryside, and we would explore, attics…

As my business continues to grow, and I become better and better at going paperless, (even if that just means scanning the document to a PDF, and shredding the original! ) I find myself having more and more files for every client. The amount of data…

As my partner Heather Jenkins grows her business, Rent In FishHawk com, the single greatest source of new business is personal referals. These come mostly from clients that have used other property managers, and had some sort of trouble with the…

This post is a bit of a rant, but it should also help some prospective buyers understand the lack of time control that exists in so many transactions currently. I tend to work with buyers, and here in West Florida, buyers like low prices, and this…

Just wanted to share some great photos of my newer listing at 910 Belle Timbre Avenue in Brandon FL. This Sunrise built home is long on details, and short on deferred maintenance. With five bedrooms, a large covered back porch, three car garage and…

Granted, in this market of short sales and foreclosures, As Is contracts have become the norm, and asking a seller to make repairs prior to the transaction seems like just memories. Even most "normal" sales are asking for As Is contracts, as any…

All too often I see sellers place the home on the market, and they suddenly stop taking care of the maintenance. I see listings with a dying yard, gutters failing, even broken windows. Placing a home on the market means ATTRACTING a buyer; it does…

A neighbor has their home listed for sale. It has been on the market for six months, with one small price reduction. As this home is local to my own, I noticed as soon as it hit the market. While the showings were good at the beggining, they have…
