Most services and online selling systems seem to be aimed at people looking to grow a business online.  There is nothing wrong with that, but their software and systems assume you will be selling the same product(s) over and over.  They include things like inventory management for example.

Repeat sales are great and the process scales.  Mailing list management is important.  However, we have a lot of one-of-a-kind items and for selling stuff like that the systems don't work so well.

In adition, the people who want to make a business out of selling stuff online, are willing to put in a lot of time, hire employees, etc.  Those of us who just want to get rid of the accumulation of decades would rather not do that.  In fact, I don't enjoy the selling process, and would prefer to get it over with as quickly and easily as possible.  So I am looking for, or would like to build, a selling system that

1. Scales
2. Requires minimal time and energy

Google Apps looks to me like it might work quite well for that.  Time will tell.

In these times of economic uncertainty with falling house prices and difficulty find loans, there are more and more reasons for considering owner financing.  When done well it makes a lot of sense and can work to the advantage of both buyer and seller.  When done poorly it can make life difficult for both.

A unique feature of the site is regular analysis and comment on notes & mortgages which have been submitted to note brokers for purchase.  We explore the strengths and weaknesses of each note we review.  If the note is rejected we explain why and make suggestions for how it could be improved.

Selling Stuff is where we detail our education and adventures researching how to sell our stuff in this age of the internet and what we learn in the process.

We also use this site to test new software and ideas.  It will have broken pages and other issues as a result.
