With inventories higher then desired the FHA Lifts Ban on Flipping Houses in 2012. How long they will keep this in play is unknown but for the foreseeable future investors are being encouraged by the FHA to purchase homes and if desired sell them prior to the 90 day hold previously required. With the FHA Lifting the Ban on Flipping Houses many more homes will be an opportunity to the investment community.

As a CDPE I pride myself on the knowledge and expertise to help investors make informed decisions on real property in coastal Georgia. If you are looking for a smart investment vehicle for 2012, real property may just be one of the best one available for not only the big investment groups but more so for the person looking to get involved in the market at a low cost. With prices where they are and interest rates at an all time low, buying a FHA/HUD home with FHA financing is an open opportunity for investors at all levels.

Funny story...

I went to the BP gas station off Hwy 40 in St. Marys GA tonight and wanted to pay with quarters that I had gathered from our garage sale last weekend. The bill was $9.36. When I started putting my sets of 4 quarters down, I was told that they would NOT accept over $5 in quarters. WHAT???????

I smiled and sweet talked even though I could have just used my debit card. That wasn't the point. I should be able to pay in change no matter what the bill amount is.

Now I could see if I tried to pay with 900 pennies (tee hee), but it was quarters.

How ridiculous are vendors that they can actually be "picky" when it comes to someone wanting to pay in change???

I should've just walked.

Anybody else run into this before?

Yesterday in Waycross GA the National BBQ Festival held there 9th annual Smokin in the Swamp BBQ Competition. Time restrictions did not allow us to enter the BBQ portion of the festival so we decided to enter the Apple Pie Competition because we only had to make a pie and drop it off and wait for the results.

Nancy's apple pie recipe is in its third generation of existence. Very little has changed over the years and the pie is pretty much the same. So we decided it would be fun to enter this pie and see what happens. Nancy was up against hundreds of professional BBQ'ers and many local folks so the competition was fierce. Typically the professional BBQ'ers win the top 10 positions so we had little chance.

Nancy's Apple Pie was a 4th Place Winner and no one was more surprised than us. People at the festival tell us that this was the first time in the competition that someone other than a professional BBQ'er had ever placed in the Top 10 let alone 4th place.

Nancy has been making this pie for me for over 10 years and I have been telling her that it is the best I have ever had. In fact it is the only apple pie I do eat because eating another pie feels like I am cheating on her.

Congratulations Nancy we are very proud of you!
