I know… I know… it’s been over a month and everyone has stopped reading this. But, I’ve been working really hard on a new project! And we’ve just released it! The project is FORECLOSEDmaps.com.

FORECLOSEDmaps.com scrapes a bunch of web site finding foreclosed properties and stores it in our database. Then, we tie the properties into Yahoo! Maps. This allows you to see a big picture of ALL the foreclosures in central Arkansas.

Investors are then show flags for each property in foreclosure. If they click on the flag, they can see details about the property including address, owner information, lender information, estimated auction price, contact information, etc.

The big idea is that investors can make a more informed decision if you present them information that is easily comprehended. There are over 190 foreclosures in Pulaski County… There is no way you can comprehend all 190+ properties… unless you are using FORECLOSEDmaps.com.

    good question. As it turns out, the abbreviation for Iowa has been BOTH IA and IO… but several years ago, The post office department issued a bulletin asking that the name of the state of Iowa shall never be abbreviated in addressing letters, as it has so often led to mistakes in the distribution of the mail. It is explained that he abbreviation “Ia.” might be mistaken for Indiana, while the abbreviation “Io.” might be taken for Idaho, those abbreviations being used in those states as much as they are in Iowa.

    P.S. I’ll miss you; at least we’ll have the cruise.
