I would suggest looking into buying a small piece of land on the edge of town and request a title search (get a list of previous owners). There you will see the mess that currently exists. We can create the most efficient process in the wor

It’s wonderful tech that has saved us thousands a month. The lock in is very little as it’s running a JS function. We’ve written our functions so that the export to the GC function merely passes in arguments to another function that is requ

If you're in a suburb that should never happen. If you are in the NYC area for example, the GPS just really struggles between all the buildings. What's more frustrating is when you are on the other side of a busy street, you wave
