What Are These Baton Rouge Vote For Amendment #1 To Stay Tax Free Signs About?

The Louisiana REALTORS® Association is supporting a constitutional amendment on the November 19th ballot to prohibit any new real estate transfer taxes in the state.

A vote FOR Amendment #1 on November 19 will…

*Protect your home from double taxation. Most homeowners in Louisiana already pay property taxes. Transfer taxes are simply another tax on the same piece of property.

*Keep Louisiana free from additional taxes, especially those that unfairly target homeowners and homebuyers.

If approved by Louisiana voters, we believe this will be an extremely positive development for residential and commercial consumers of real estate – and good for the overall real estate market and economy in Louisiana.

Monitor this important initiative thoughout the fall at STAYTAXFREE.com. Browse the site for related news, background on the issue, answers to frequently asked questions, and learn how you can get involved.

http://www.myflipcamerasecrets.com/ – Pole Aerial Photography: Exterior P.A.P. Using Kodak Zi8 Camera On Tall Monopod and SUV. P.A.P. meaning “Pole Aerial Photography”. For the Agent on a tighter budget, this might be a possible solution!

Photo Below: My first attempt at Pole Aerial Photography from on top of my suv holding a monopod and taken with Kodak Zi8 with 0.5x wide angle lens by remote control clicker (about 16′ to 18′). I’m sure the neighbors were wondering what in the world was going on! I like this kind of stuff…

I know that there are many real estate professionals on Active Rain blogging about P.A.P. and there’s even the P.A.P. Group on Active Rain that shares ideas and tips on this extension of real estate marketing. And, apparently P.A.P. is a popular topic on Facebook as my post below generated more than a few comments.

Here’s How!

First, this is not “pro photography”…obviously. This is accomplished with a simple Kodak Zi8 with 0.5x Wide Angle Lens ($39 at BestBuy) mounted on a 57″ monopod ($15 Walmart) using a Kodak remote control clicker ($10 at BestBuy).

EXTERIOR. For Exterior High Shots, I stand on top of the SUV below and hold the monopod as high and as sturdy as I can and use the remote to click the photos.
