HOW TO BUILD WEALTH LOCATING THESE POCKET GOLD MINES.I started working in the urban areas of Portland Oregon in 1988, back when most neighborhoods close to the City core were in extreme disrepair and chaos. This book will serve to teach you how I made millions splitting infill lots. Urban Infill is defined as "filling in the gaps" in already established, older, existing neighborhoods close to a City core. Splitting these historically platted lots just requires simple administrative paperwork and generally takes 1 to 4 weeks. I also teach you how to quickly and easily build a new home on any infill lot. 99% of the general public has no idea what historically platted lots are, and because of that, there is very little competition in what I do, and what I can teach you at www.urbaninfill.com. Unlike the "fix and flip guru's, that teach you how to buy homes, fix and flip, we have very little competition. Fix and Flips have so much competition these days that it is hard to find a good deal. I think most will agree. However, what I can teach you is what I term "the new gold"! Sifting through these neighborhoods and knowing how to locate these lots, and split them off, and possibly building the new home can lead you to life-changing financial success. Also, I can teach you how to easily build a new home in 25 simple steps. Building a new home is much easier than most renovations of older homes, and in many cases, costs less. It is also much easier to budget a new home because there are rarely any surprises. For some reason, most people think building a new home is difficu

Book excerpt: Urban land is an increasingly precious commodity, particularly in the centers of major cities. Every spare corner of land is in demand, however small, inaccessible, or awkwardly shaped. For architects the challenge is to optimize these sites while simultaneously negotiating the web of planning regulations to create homes suited to today's lifestyles. Infill profiles 39 innovative and imaginative urban dwellings around the world that fill in gaps left bydemolition, or that have been squeezed into plots previously considered unsuitable for development. Each case study is illustrated with photographs, drawings, and specially drawn site plans, all accompanied by authoritative commentary.The authors focus particularly on the challenges that each architect faced and how they were overcome.

Download or read book Good Green Homes written by Jennifer Roberts and published by Gibbs Smith. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green. It conjures images of a meadow in spring for some, and the color of money for others. What does "green" have to do with our homes? In essence, green building-or sustainable building-means being smart about how we use energy, water, and building materials so that we can live well without needlessly damaging the environment. Creating a good green home isn't just about conservation, about using less or saving more-although that's certainly part of it. It's about creating better homes that are easier on the environment, less expensive over the long term, and more delightful to come home to. That's the message Jennifer Roberts wants to share in Good Green Homes, the ultimate new guide for people who want to live in comfortable, healthy, environmentally conscious homes.With some simple steps outlined in this book, you can save money, and do your part to help save the environment. For instance, using an energy-efficient light bulb saves you money. It also results in less demand for electricity, which in turn results in less pollution from power plants, which may help a child with asthma breathe a little easier. If you associate green-built housing with the unconventional or the quirky-tree houses, geodesic domes, dwellings constructed of tires or soda bottles-think again. Perfect for homeowners, remodelers, renters (who might be surprised by how much is within their power to change), architects, builders, and interior designers, this book lays out seven fundamental principles of green building, illustrated with more than 150 color and 20 black and white photographs of more than twenty-five homes. Jennifer Roberts launched two retail stores in San Francisco specializing in environmentally sensible consumer products, including household goods; and is a freelance writer and editor on topics that include energy-efficient building design and systems.

This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 1027 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume embodies a problem-driven and theoretically informed approach to bridging frontier research in urban economics and urban/regional planning. The authors focus on the interface between these two subdisciplines that have historically had an uneasy relationship. Although economists were among the early contributors to the literature on urban planning, many economists have been dismissive of a discipline whose leading scholars frequently favor regulations over market institutions, equity over efficiency, and normative prescriptions over positive analysis. Planners, meanwhile, even as they draw upon economic principles, often view the work of economists as abstract, not sensitive to institutional contexts, and communicated in a formal language spoken by few with decision making authority. Not surprisingly, papers in the leading economic journals rarely cite clearly pertinent papers in planning journals, and vice versa. Despite the historical divergence in perspectives and methods, urban economics and urban planning share an intense interest in many topic areas: the nature of cities, the prosperity of urban economies, the efficient provision of urban services, efficient systems of transportation, and the proper allocation of land between urban and environmental uses. In bridging this gap, the book highlights the best scholarship in planning and economics that address the most pressing urban problems of our day and stimulates further dialog between scholars in urban planning and urban economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to build community, reduce waste, and create affordable, unique homes. Housing is a fundamental human right. For most of human history, our homes were built by hand from whatever local materials were available. However, since the Industrial Revolution, most housing has become little more than quickly constructed, mass-produced, uniform boxes. At the same time, the invention and standardization of the thirty-year mortgage and our ever-increasing reliance on credit has come to mean that most of us never own our homes outright. Housing Reclaimed is a call to arms for nonconventional home builders. It examines how technological advances, design evolution, and resourceful, out-of-the-box thinking about materials and efficiency can help us meet the challenge of building affordable, environmentally friendly, beautiful, and unique homes. Focusing on the use of salvaged and reclaimed materials, this inspirational volume is packed with case studies of innovative projects including: Phoenix Commotion—working together towards low-income home ownership through sweat equity and 100 percent recycled materials HabeRae—revitalizing neighborhoods by creating urban infill using modern technology and sustainable and reclaimed materials Builders of Hope—rescuing and rehabilitating whole houses slated for demolition These projects and others like them demonstrate that building one's own home does not have to be an unattainable dream. This beautifully illustrated guide is a must-read for anyone interested in creating quality zero- or low-debt housing, reducing landfill waste, and creating stronger communities. Jessica Kellner is the editor of Natural Home and Garden magazine and a passionate advocate of using architectural salvage to create aesthetically beautiful, low-cost housing.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main purpose of this study is to contribute to the field of urban modeling by identifying factors associated with the location of infill housing development in declining American cities. The focus of this research is on the institutional factors that have not been considered in traditional urban land use models. The two main research questions were: (1) are the institutional factors significantly associated with the location of urban infill housing development in declining American cities? and (2) are the institutional factors more important than non-institutional factors, i.e., site and neighborhood characteristics, in determining the location of infill housing development? The study analyzed housing development patterns in City of Cleveland, Ohio, during the 1990s. Most of the institutional factors were found to be significantly related to infill housing development. The land bank and Neighborhood Reinvestment Agreement (NRA) programs were found to be particularly important in guiding the process of the infill housing development. Several non-institutional factors such as the quantity of vacant residential land were also found to be significantly related to infill housing development. Other non-institutional factors that have been traditionally used in urban models such as accessibility and proximity to amenities were found to not be significantly related to the location of infill housing development. Interestingly, the minority-concentrated, poverty-stricken, crime-ridden, and population-losing neighborhoods which urban modelers have traditionally assumed would have little new housing experienced the most housing development activities. These rather surprising results reflect the fact that these neighborhoods were the focus of governments{u2019} and other supporting institutions{u2019} efforts to revitalize depressed urban neighborhoods. The study has several important implications for urban modelers and urban planners. It first suggests that urban models for the residential development in struggling older cities should consider the important role played by a city{u2019}s institutional support systems. Second, it suggests that these models should pay particular attention to land availability factors such as land bank programs and the amount of residential vacant land. Third, it suggests that urban modelers interested in urban infill residential development should not be as concerned with accessibility to employment or shopping centers as they are with other locational factors. Lastly, it indicates that governmental and institutional interventions can effectively guide the location of infill housing development in a weak inter-urban housing market."--abstract.
