Nantucket faces car issue head on

Wednesday, July 27th, 2005

People who support the car cap say Nantucket’s roads were not built for the vehicle volume they now bear. The steadily growing number of cars, they say, creates gridlock downtown, as well as a general safety hazard.

Opponents argue that restricting vehicle access would itself create an inconvenience that could deter tourism. Some seasonal residents also protest the possibility they wouldn’t get permits - even though they’re taxpayers - because they register their cars to a permanent residence off-island.

Treasure Hunters off Nantucket

Monday, July 11th, 2005

American Gold Eagle coins from 1909 now valued at $3 million.

This may be the most valuable Nantucket Real Estate ever.

A ship called The Republic sunk 50 miles off the coast of Nantucket in 1909. The History of the Republic was a prequel to the Titanic. She was the Titanic before the Titanic.

It sank after a collision with the USS Florida in dense fog.

Forty-seven years later, another infamous liner, the Andrea Doria, would go to her watery grave only five miles away from the Republic.

A modern day treasure hunter believes the reward could be a treasure valued at between $1.6 and $10 billion, though he admits …

Why Plum TV is the perfect place to feature Nantucket Real Estate

Sunday, July 10th, 2005

Plum TV is a cable network that caters to Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, the Hamptons and Vail.

The average viewer earns $218,000 annually with a household asset of $2.5 million. Plum woos advertisers with its quality, not the quantity of the viewership.

This summer as many as 457,000 viewers will turn on Plum on any given night. Plum follows a “by the rich, for the rich” philosophy. It makes a lot of sense to introduce new listings and to discuss recent real estate news to this very targeted audience on Plum TV. The network’s founders, Tom Scott (of Nantucket Nectars “Juice Guys), Cary Woods and Chris Glowaki say Plum’s advertising model is a more effective …

The Lincoln Memorial via Google Earth

Google has just released their newest version of 3-D mapping. The implications for Real Estate listings and the Internet seem enormous.

From the Google website:

The idea is simple. It’s a globe that sits inside your PC. You point and zoom to anyplace on the planet that you want to explore. Satellite images and local facts zoom into view. Tap into Google search to show local points of interest and facts. Zoom to a specific address to check out an apartment or hotel. View driving directions and even fly along your route. We invite you to try it now.

Leverage and returns with Real Estate

Thursday, July 7th, 2005

Real estate is most often purchased using leverage. Leverage refers to the purchase of an investment with borrowed money (the mortgage). The effect of leverage is that both gains and losses on the investment are magnified dramatically.

Consider the following two examples:

The Smith family has $25,000 to invest. They choose to invest in the stock market by purchasing mutual funds. If the stock market rises by 10%, the value of the Smith family’s investment will increase by $2,500. If the stock market falls by 10%, the Smith family will lose $2500 on their investment, leaving them with an investment worth $22,500.

The Jones family also has $25,000 to invest. They choose to use the money as a down payment …
