Zach Crizer of The Collegiate Times called me early last week and asked "why do people decide to invest in college towns?"  We talked for a few minutes, and later in the week he posted "Blacksburg Real Estate Weathers Financial Storm". Thanks, Zach, for the chance to talk with you, and to be quo...

Blacksburg's newest development project, The Colosseum, has broken ground.  Here's a link to the recap in Multi-Housing News. I wrote in January that I thought it was too much for the area - too much product right now.  I still do; condos are lagging behind the rest of the market. Only time will...
