sustainable innovation: THE GOOD GREEN INVESTMENT MUSE: A Little Software and A Lot Something Else. - 11/09/07 07:04 AM
       
 
Our real estate practice focuses on sustainable innovation. With this in mind, the idea of software in my tool box that can help put a property in context appeals to me.
For  testing and identifying dollar risks, looking at income (before and after taxes) and comparing one property to others, I use a handy, professional software program I trained on during one of my CRS classes. I really like it.
Why?
 
This software helps show my good green real estate investor-clients which property of interest holds on a strong income potential.It helps my eco-friendly 1031 clients compare properties.It helps us look … (8 comments)

UPDATE: After the meeting, clients decided to move forward with looking at various possibilities for this infill project.
 
 
SCENARIO:    Before deciding how to position an infill project for development and sale, as you may recall from Part I of this series, we decided that very savvy planners, on the leading edge of sustainable innovation and design would be called upon to review "the case"...planning professionals, eco-developers, architects, and so forth ...

sustainable innovation: Anatomy of a Land Sale. CHASING WATERFALLS , Asking Questions & Listening to An Investor’s Dream (Part I) - 06/12/07 02:56 AM
                                                                                                 
     Our client, JT, a professional photographer, (black & white) - tells us he has been "chasing waterfalls".    I ask him my favorite question: "Tell me what is most important to you about this much sought-after waterfall."
His eyes light up. He explains that often he passes his days photographing rectangular structures. So, when he is at home, he prefers to be close to the organic shapes and forms (and energy) that nature provides.
He has his finances in order (he's pre-qualified) for a land purchase of about 40 acres with a grand natural water feature and is ready to … (42 comments)
