It’s a New Day and a New Year: Introducing SingleMomBuysHouses.com

Well, heck, I thought maybe the last post I made on this blog was going to be a month ago, about shutting down AAA Properties.  That teaches me to be going around thinking …

It turns out that I’m probably going to be more active in real estate as a non-broker, than I was as a broker.  My girlfriend, Stacia Loo the Millionairess has just recently started the SingleMomBuysHouses.com blog and she is looking to buy houses in Seattle or the Puget Sound area, with specific interest in fixer houses in Renton, South Seattle, and West Seattle – although she will look at any kind of potential real estate deal.

If you want to check out Makaya Loo (age 10)’s new niche site it is at http://www.minecrafttricks.com or if you need to learn how to give a wedding speech, you should most certainly visit  www.WeddingSpeechesMade.com , or if you want to learn how to get those 6 pack abs you always thought were impossible, you need to check out my new site under constant development, JoeAbs.com.  Guess you can just call me Joe Abs.
