How about a new construction?
A new construction on land that I already own? I have two multifamily houses in Sweden. They are located next to each other with an empty lot in between. On…
Real estate developments
Some real estate developments are funny. Places like the one in the image used to be complete desert a few years ago. Now they are hot enough to build several…
I think it’s better to build in the hills
If we build in the hills we get better views, more privacy and we save a lot of the land that can otherwise be used for agriculture. Looking at it…
At the office. But not for long!
You aren't suppose to be at the office on Sundays. You are suppose to keep the Sabbath day holy. I think I'll do that by going for a long walk.…
My real estate market :)
So I had some time and decided I wanted to see if I was up to date on my real estate market. Or one of my real estate markets. As…
Just wanted to get rid of some bad photos.
Bad, bad photos… I know you aren’t supposed to do this as it makes my blog very unprofessional, but I tend to be the same no matter what I’m doing, so this will happen.
If I buy paint, boards, nails, etc. for a house I try really hard to use it all. If you can put 90% of what you buy into good, use it becomes a lot cheaper than if you only manage to use 60%.

I know this is wrong, but I honestly have something built in to me that really wants to use all the photos I have rather than throwing them away, which I should do.
First, a photo of a police car in downtown Tampa :)
Then I have these few. It’s photos from two days ago when I walked by a big construction site. These photos are really awful, but as I said, I just have a really hard time throwing them away…

Both of my real estate markets are hot!
I live and work in both Florida and Sweden. These are two very different real estate markets with their own strengths and challenges.
They are both getting sort of hot at the moment. Not perfect in my opinion as this is not good times for buying, my favourite thing to do. However. Not bad either as the value of our properties are going up.
There are a few things indicating hot markets. One: house prices are going up. Two: there are more buyers for every sale. Three: The bidding usually ends way above asking price rather than under. Four: A lot more new places are being built. Five: Relatively bad lot’s are getting sold and built on. Five: Time for a photo. (more…)
How many floors is the most cost effective?
To be honest, I'm not quite sure, but I have a vague memory of a really successful developer mentioning something like this: "I was just about to build a 30…
