Announcements, Pictures, and Chapter 13 Questions?

Announcements
One thing nice about this on-line section is that you don't need to worry about the weather. In the place of weather worries, I guess we have the occasional technical (usually a server) problems.

As a reminder, you are not required to participate in this blog but you do need to keep up with announcement on both the website and blog.

Thank you to those who have commented to the prior post about your level of real estate related experience. We have some interesting real estate and even more interesting non-real estate related experiences in this class.

Pictures
If you checked the course website recently, you will notice I posted two pictures. The first picture is of myself at my desk (a very bad web cam shot) and the second picture is my dog (Riley). Although we are primarily on-line, I thought it would be nice to put a face with the site and also have a class mascot (that's Riley, not me).

This is NOT a requirement, but if you would like to send me a picture of yourself and one additional picture of anything you find interesting (must be legal and tasteful), I will add these pictures to our course website. It would be nice for me to put some faces with names. Also, we can try to have a little fun on-line (we do have a little fun the regular in-class). Please send the pictures by February 1st and I will post them on February 2nd.

Chapter 13
How are you doing with Chapter 13? This is an important chapter. Any questions?

I call next week, TVM boot camp. We will cover chapter 14 and the pdf download "Review Materials for Real Estate." I am in the process of recording video clips for the "Review Materials..." and posting these clips on the website (right before the Chapter 14 course materials). If this is your first look at TVM, you will need to spend a good amount of time on this next week (just a friendly heads-up).

Have a good weekend.
