“We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand… and melting like a snowflake.
Let us use it before it is too late.”

It is a comfortable feeling to know that you stand on your own ground. Land is about the only thing that can’t fly away.

Anthony Trollope

Buying real estate is not only the best way, the quickest way, the safest way, but the only way to become wealthy.

Marshall Field

Real estate cannot be lost or stolen, nor can it be carried away. Purchased with common sense, paid for in full, and managed with reasonable care, it is about the safest investment in the world.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Real estate is an imperishable asset, ever increasing in value. It is the most solid security that human ingenuity has devised. It is the basis of all security and about the only indestructible security.

Russell Sage
