Sacramento, California
Our headquarters is in Sacramento, California a market weve been specializing in since 1999 (through a major real estate boom, a burst bubble, and now a rebounding market extremely ripe for investors like us - and you!).

Home to the California State Capitol, the Sacramento Region is also known for its proximity to world-famous destinations like the San Francisco Bay Area, Pacific Ocean, Sierra Nevada Mountains, Napa Valley and Lake Tahoe. With one of the strongest economies in California, the area offers an abundant and educated workforce from world-class research and educational institutions, a variety of housing choices, and excellent schools. A beautiful and healthy setting to “live and play,” the region is filled with trees, rivers and bike trails and offers a comfortable climate, cultural attractions and outdoor activities.

According to The Bloomberg Report, housing demand in California, where one out of every eight U.S. residents lives, is reviving as bargain hunters buy up foreclosed properties, reversing a two-year slide in home sales.

This creates a tremendous opportunity for us (and YOU) to invest in Sacramento, an area that historically has experienced a great deal of appreciation due to the fact that it is the capital of California, the 7th largest economy in the world. Exciting new opportunities are being created for its two million residents and growing businesses (especially green/eco-economy companies) in the greater Sacramento Region. In addition to being home to around 200,000 government workers and a half million private-sector workers, Sacramento is experiencing a renaissance of restaurants and culture, due in large part to an influx of Bay Area refugees who have moved here.

Sacramento offers a rich history and exciting present. But there are three main reasons the Sacramento region is so attractive for real estate investors RIGHT NOW:

1. Strong and sudden price drops. According to the National Association of Realtors, California leads the nation in home-price drops. Sacramento saw the biggest price decrease in the nation during the first quarter of 2008, with a loss of 29 percent.

2. Foreclosure auctions are removing inventory and may lead to a faster housing market recovery as prices drop. About 30,000 foreclosed homes have been auctioned in California so far this year, the most of any U.S. state. Sacramento ranks among the top 10 U.S. metro areas with the highest foreclosure rates (RealtyTrac).

3. Banks holding repossessed properties dont let them sit on the market long. To move inventory they will give buyers discounts of as much as 40 percent. Lower prices are enticing buyers back into the market. Sales in the California increased 2.5 percent in April, 2008, following 30 consecutive declines.

Jackson, Mississippi
The capital and largest city is undergoing a post-Katrina building boom. New homes are being built, with expected positive appreciation of over 6% in 2007. The median price of homes in Jackson is $137,000.

Because Jackson is far north of the Gulf, its in a great position to continue growing, by attracting commerce, jobs and the people to work there.

The city offers incentives for new businesses locating in the metropolitan Jackson area. They include low taxes, high quality labor, training programs and tax credits for companies who create new jobs and provide basic skills for training and/or childcare.

Nissan Motor Company built a $930 million automobile plant in Jackson and produced their first truck in 2003. They chose Jackson because of the incentives noted above, the large land parcels and their well-developed energy and utility infrastructure.

The Nissan plant created 3,300 new hourly jobs and has the capacity of producing 250,000 vehicles each year. This factory, in turn, attracted suppliers and other support services to the area. This has produced hundreds of new facilities, with multi-millions in total capital investment and the creation of thousands of jobs.

There are many local and state run programs to teach, train and assist the labor force to keep up with changing technologies and rapid advancements.

More new jobs will be created, with the completion of the 240,000 square feet Capital City Convention Center expected to be completed in 2009 at an estimated cost of $61 million.

Jackson is also a vital shipping and freight hub for the Souths distribution of goods, another source of ongoing industry, providing more hourly jobs, resulting in high demand for rental properties.

In short Jacksons a GREAT place for real estate investors!

Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis is the largest city in Tennessee and the 17th largest in the nation, but according to the Memphis Business Journal, December 19, 2007, Memphis ranked 11th in the nation for foreclosures.

Thats one property foreclosed for every 683 households.

With all the foreclosures, people still must have a place to live! So the time is right for out-of-state investors to buy up some of these properties for cash flow until the market turns around again.

Memphis investment properties are a great buy because they are undervalued by market standards. When you compare the commercial and residential properties in this area to national averages, youll find they cost much less.

And the area is slated to grow in popularity, so the properties will grow in value. When you buy now, you can rent the property, generate a small cash flow and watch it grow in equity over time.

In fact, with our properties, you’ll get a return on your investment immediately, which certainly can’t be said about most investments.

If you buy up properties now, you stand to make more on long-term investments, with an immediate 30% equity that you’ll get with most of our properties.

Values will increase, as various revitalization projects continue, which will create significant public benefits, including environmental cleanup, job creation, increased tourism and recreation

So, if you’ve been hesitant to get involved because youre not sure if its the right time or dont believe you know the market well enough now IS the right time to get started.
