Trade In Architecture

Debbi,

While in Hong Kong I was watching a show were a London real estate agent was saying the 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment or condo was a hot seller... problem is there are extremely few of those.. why they are popular is 2 people with incomes can stand to lIve together if each has his own bath...

The politicians have decided to steal their way of of this problem, which means taxes at 90% or more... we've seen this before in the 50's and 60s, at which point people moved from being employees to self employment. There was some very cool architecture out of it (mid century small business offices) as self-employed people put their income into business amenities rather than leave profits for the government to take to use for war and welfare and other criminal acts.

It may be small work to start, but you might pitch a service in which you convert single bath apartments and condos into double bath units... and then also remodel the offices of small businesses, wherein people will be spending 8-16 hours a day, so they want them nice... during the boom they tore down all the building appropriate for small businesses and built things that are not appropriate (offices on top of a warehouse for a family run business.). You can see a few of these buildings, someone run down, along rainier avenue. Start with small remodels and work up into full construction projects as the economy settles down into the full depression.
