“Clintonville pubs”

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Someone ended up here (ColumbusBestBlog.com) searching for “clintonville ohio pubs.” I thought perhaps there is a city in Ohio called Clintonville… that they were searching for. If they are looking for pubs in the Clintonville neighborhood in Columbus they are going to be thirsty.

 

Clintonville is dry.

 

I learned that Clintonville is dry from a Doo Dah Parade the first year I moved to Columbus. You can learn a lot from a Doo Dah Parade.

 

Or I believe Clintonville is still dry. I tried verifying that Clintonville is dry by Googling but I came up with myself saying “Clintonville is dry” on ActiveRain (a real estate network.)

 

You won’t find “pubs” in Clintonville.

 

edited out the Clintonville video because I was seeing the dreaded red x. If you want to watch a video about Clintonville, go to Watch in the sidebar. Clintonville is part of the “& more” in the Grandview & more video from Real Living that is linked there. Thanks.

Ohio on the cutting edge…

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Ohio is on the cutting edge when it comes to stopping home foreclosures and that news made US News & World Reports this week. Thanks to real estate blogger Carole Cohen in Cleveland for bringing the news that Ohio is in the news to my attention.

According to an article in US News & World Reports by Luke Mullins, the secret weapon? Lawyers. Mullin’s interview of Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann, who orchestrated “the plan”is the story in How Ohio is Tackling the Foreclosure Crisis:

“What will the lawyers do?
The lawyers will work with the borrowers to see if there are defenses to the actual foreclosure, whether there was fraud or unsuitability in the creation of the mortgage to begin with, and then to assist in two other ways: either to help litigate the case or to help structure a settlement.”

Carole wrote about Ohio using lawyers to level the playing field when it comes to foreclosures on her Cleveland Real Estate News
