My Birthday Horoscope!

Yes.  March 21st is my Birthday.  So, I wondered just what the Stars had in Mind for me today?

"You've got an edge when it comes to financial, legal or medical matters. Focus on what you want to see transpire and make it so. Luck is in your corner, so don't hesitate to ask for what you want. 3 stars"

Okay! What I want is my deal on the Fontainebleau Las Vegas to go into escrow and close!

We'll see if that is in the stars!

While Americans complain about Taxes, Foreign Investors are beating them to the Las Vegas CRE Punch!

Via my web site and other real estate sites that I have subscribe to over the years, I have been approached by many Foreign Investors -- whether Asian or European -- looking for a good investment because as we all know the European and Asian economies are just as bad as ours -- IF not worse!

Most of the Foreign Investors complain about the taxes they have to pay in their respective countries. One Asian investor told me he just wants to get a better value for his money.  He said he has to pay 52% of his gross income as income taxes.  By the way, he says his country doesn't have deductibles.  So, his income tax IS 52% of his income regardless of how the money is earned.

He also said he is surprised at how much Americans complain about their income taxes.  He reiterated that at least we have nice roads and bridges, etc to help get us to where we want to go across the US continent.  AND, he said we can do that (basically) without fear from highway bandits (his words) who prey on travelers.

So, American Investors: Las Vegas does have some very good deals waiting for you to pounce on them.  When Net Leased Investments are going for 4% to 5% Cap Rates in other states, a 6% to 7% Cap Rate in Las Vegas looks pretty darn good.

So, either email or call me to discuss a potential Las Vegas CRE property purchase.

Las Vegas Casino Resort Hotels For Sale!

If you have been following my blog, you undoubtedly have seen several postings about Las Vegas Resort Properties that may/may not be available in the Las Vegas Metropolitan area.

Since the Buyer MUST compensate me for my endeavors, I must ask that the authorized signatory for your company be the one to sign a Non-Circumvent, Confidentiality and Commission Agreement.

A telephone call to me telling me how much of a good guy/gal you are simply won't work.

So, as of today, there are three potential Resort Casino Hotels which could be acquired.  They range from --- well, let's just say for the sake of lowest common denominator without giving out  more information than is needed at this time -- it will run you more than $250 Million and they go up from there.

All offers to acquire any of these Resort Casino Hotel Properties will require that you disclose yourself fully; All persons that will be holding 5% or more ownership interests will be required to disclose their complete personal and financial capability; you will be subject to Nevada Gaming Control Board preliminary background check -- and this will also be done by the Resort Owner and it is absolutely necessary you be vetted.  The reason is that they do NOT want to become involved in anyone who may/may not be shady characters.  You do NOT have to be stellar!  You just MUST be honest.

And, they obviously do not want to be barraged by unqualified persons who are only simply looking for proprietary information.  This will NOT be given until/unless you have passed muster of the current Owner's vetting process.

Lastly, IF you even think you may NOT be Nevada Gaming Control Board Approved, then please do NOT waste my time.  You do NOT have to be squeakily clean, however, in terms of criminal activity or other illegal marks on your record, it is best you disclose everything.
