Will Oil Prices Rise in 2016 in the United States?
The price of oil continues to be to be low across the United States of America, and many along with myself wonder if these prices will last.I myself like the low prices because of all the traveling I do and how much money I have been saving at the gas pumps.But I know these low prices are effecting Canada and parts of Alaska in a negative way because of all the workers working in the oil industry.

Brainstorming Las Vegas - San Francisco - Seattle by Robert Vegas Bob Swetz     Vegas Bob continues to "Brainstorm" and think very strongly about whether he will be working as a glazier in construction in Las Vegas, San Francisco or Seattle.         Vegas Bob has been waiting patiently for a HUGE project called "Resorts World Las Vegas" to really break ground and start hiring glaziers. Not really sure what's holding up this 3-4 year project, but the wait continues to frustrate Vegas Bob.   So until RWLV really takes off, Vegas Bob will be driving once again … (5 comments)

questions: Is Zillow.com, Trulia.com, Homefinder.com, Helping Brokers & Agents? - 11/12/14 06:59 AM
Wednesday, November 12, 2014     Is Zillow.com, Trulia.com, Homefinder.com, Helping Brokers & Agents?   Robert Vegas Bob Swetz has been wondering for several years now if these type of websites/networks are really helping the industry or hurting it?   I know Trulia bought ActiveRain.com and then Zillow bought Trulia so Vegas Bob has to really be careful about what he says around the World Wide Web.   So instead of Vegas Bob expressing his concerns and opinions, he was wondering if readers would like to share their incite to my question.   And with these websites and networks already in place, … (5 comments)

Home Owner wants to sell home but Squatter inside, now what?
Several months ago a home owner came to me wanting to sell one of their investment homes. They hadn't been to the property in quite some time so I went with them to view the property, take some photos, etc.
When we arrived at the home everything seemed to look OK until we walked through the front door. As we entered through the front door we noticed what smelled like cooked odors. We also heard what sounded like the shower running.
So I asked the homeowner in he was … (9 comments)

questions: What could "President Obama" possibly do in a second 4 year term he didn't do in the first? - 04/18/12 01:17 AM
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
What could "President Obama" possibly do in a second 4 year term he didn't do in the first?   Well it's starting to look like "President Obama" may be elected another 4 year term ... maybe Robert (Vegas Bob) Swetz should have ran against the President. When ever a new president comes into office and nothing gets done Americans always say that they are fixing all the mistakes the president made before them ....

questions: Why are the numbers of Comments, Views & Clicks so different at ActiveRain vs other Networks? - 02/21/12 11:59 PM
                                  
When it comes to Comments, Views & Clicks at ActiveRain, I have found the numbers to quite different then other Networks and I have always wondered (Why)?
Very-Very seldom will I ever see a Comment come across to older posts at ActiveRain. So does this mean that the members & public viewers are only interested in (New) posts and blogging from AR?
My YouTube accounts for example continue to rise in the thousands of views & I even receive some comments even after over one year or longer ...
Are the SEO's really … (10 comments)

As I was reading comments to my post before this one I noticed "colored" URLs from some advertisement. I was wondering if this was some connection from the ActiveRain network or someone wants to help Vegas Bob with search engines ...
or could this company be trying to create search engines for themselves by attaching to VB?
What ever the reason please click on the URL (below) and take a look for yourself, and if anyone can please clarify what this may be please do!

questions: Vacant Land Owners ... "Who really Owns this Land"? - 01/25/11 05:27 PM
Vacant Land Owners ... I own several Vacant Land Properties across the country, and the titles are all clear on these properties that I own!
But I started really thinking who owns this Land? Sure I purchased it from someone but deep within the title could these properties have been leased to the United States Government by “Native Americans”? I have one Vacant Land Property that was sold over one hundred years ago by a “Native American” Lady!
 

 
Could it be possible that most of the Vacant Land in the United States in really owned by the “Native … (20 comments)

Most agents & people in the Real Estate industry do there best to answer their phones, and there are a handful that don't. And then there are people that are very busy driving, showing properties, sitting with clients at a closing, attending CEO classes and more.
We can not always answer our phones when a client of individual calls about information on a property or our services, so ...
