Relationships are an APPRECIATING asset in terms of depth, understanding, history and all the things that make life worth living. The PROPER analogy would be to say you don't want to buy a house because the FACADE will soon be weathered, regardless of the contents inside. Likewise, she is shopping for the facade and not the interior contents either. Get a grip, folks - HAVE YOU SO LOST TOUCH WITH WHAT IS TRULY VALUABLE??? Your analogy is ridiculous.

They often times offer "below market" prices, but as you mentioned, the buyer does have to be patient. These types of sales also come with different rules, logic and surprises. Just make sure you're working with someone who knows what they're doing. Craigslist Search – short sales and REOs can definitely be a good deal.

So many reluctant buyers need to heed this advice. Maybe getting it to them in such a humorous way will work, at least if the man is the one steering the ship. The ladies may not be so moved to buy. :-) Great post! So many reluctant buyers need to heed this advice.

While 45 isn't exactly 23, I'm sure Jack (and Rebecca...read her comment) will argue that there are benefits to being a little more mature. And as a single 27 year old, living in a quasi-college town, I'll be the first to say that younger isn't always better. Just ask Miss South Carolina http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj3iNxZ8Dww Cyndee,
