Does Active Rain have a Q/A forum like Trulia's? 
I've been searching for a Q/A forum similar to Trulia's and can't seem to find one. Does anyone know if such a thing exists on AR? I really gain a lot of information and knowledge from that venue. Many times even more so than reading and writing blog posts. Please enlighten me.

Buying A Pre HUD Mobile Home? 1976 Or Older?

You really need to be more concerned about the condition of such and old mobile home before you do.

I would like to thank Richard Weisser of Coweta Fayette Real Estate for inspiring fodder for this post:

I was impressed and and quite surprised to see just how many folks spend so much of their day on electronic devices i.e. computers, I Pads, cell phones, texting, etc. In fact my wife and partner of 37 years, who I love dearly, absolutely drives me nuts sometimes.......no wait.......all the time with her relentless passion if not outright OCD on the phone texting, emailing, audio communication (yapping), etc. Granted it's 80% biz and it contributes to a very comfortable lifestyle … (0 comments)
