		<description><![CDATA[You’re scared to death that you won’t be able to get anyone in there, or that it will spend months unoccupied, or your screening process will fail and your first tenants will wreck the place and skip out.

		<description><![CDATA[First off, the obvious disadvantage of hiring a GC is the COST.  Now, as an economist, I must point out that here we are talking about the monetary cost, not the total cost.

So, when is a GC worth this premium? <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=juliafriedl.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8734957&amp;post=11&amp;subd=juliafriedl&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As firm believers in basic economic principles, many decisions in our household are based on maximizing utility, or overall happiness/pleasure.  For example, when there are only 2 scoops of ice cream left in the tub, it doesn&#8217;t matter who gets to it first, the ice cream goes to whomever will enjoy eating it the most.  [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=juliafriedl.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8734957&amp;post=1&amp;subd=juliafriedl&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
