Insights

A message from Mark Lively:

The following insights/posts are meant to be a candid discussion of topics surrounding real estate and real estate investing. This isn’t a sales pitch. Some of this is to help educate people who are interested in real estate and investing; some of this is simply me looking at data and testing my own theories. These are just my thoughts on a subject I think about often. Hope you enjoy.
