Hey Richmond: Do you Groupon? Saving money has always been a big plus in my book. I hate over paying for anything and, frankly, I love the thrill of a good deal. Last year when I stumbled upon Groupon, a website that offers coupons to local businesses once a certain number have been purchased, I was intrigued. I signed up for the daily alerts that let me know exactly what the deal was for the day. I watched these deals carefully but never bought anything. That was until... ...I saw a Groupon for  a massage. I am a sucker for massages. They are a rare treat, but a treat I do indulge in from time to time. I JUMPED at the chance to buy it and saved half off in the process.  I was hooked. I even got my husband hooked once he saw the deals coming in for golf. In the last six months, we have ...

Foreclosures can be a great investment ...there are many available in Glen Allen, VA which is a great place to live.  But buyers beware!  It's easy to say "I can fix that"  or "It only needs new carpet and paint".  Surprisingly many make a mistake by not hiring an experienced Home Inspector before making the investment! My extensive experience with foreclosed homes teaches that many foreclosed homes have suffered from lack of maintenance.  Prior to foreclosure, the previous owner may have ignored necessary maintenance.  Sometimes homeowners vandalized the home just prior to the foreclosure. After a house has been foreclosed, it usually sits vacant.  If it sat vacant over this past winter, the pipes may have froze if the home was not properly winterized.  Sometimes expensive components o...
