When Should I Buy Real Estate in Vail ???

According to Warren Buffet in the New York Times Op-Ed piece from October 16, 2008:
"A simple rule dictates my buying: Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful." This is undoubtedly great advice from someone who has always put his money where his mouth is. We are seeing prices in segments of the Vail Valley real estate market that look like prices from 5 years ago. Perhaps it's time to take a more serious approach at buying real estate with serious long-term appreciation potential. Are you looking for diversification in your IRA or 401k? This may be a good time to pick up investment property at great prices. And, if you are of retirement age, you can collect the rental income! Call or email me for details.

Beware of Colorado Corporate Compliance SCAM

I received a very serious looking request for an Annual Minutes Disclosure along with a request for payment of $150 from the Colorado Corporate Compliance Division. This is a scam, and a very good one as most of us who are incorporated are busy and sometimes rapidly write checks to comply and move on. My accountant was not aware of this scam either. After some further digging on the internet (thank you Google), I found the above link with further clarification. Hopefully, the secretary of state is investigating.
