Posted March 2, 2017 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in Home and Family, Projects

Orlando is a very diverse area with many people in transition and entry level jobs. This makes the need for affordable housing tremendous. As a social experiment, I created this campaign to see how we can all give back to our neighbors by providing an affordable house for a good family. The goal of this […]

We’re well into Fall and no matter where you live, there are things you should be doing to prepare for Winter. If you live in an area where the temperature falls below freezing: – Turn off all outside water sources and leave the valve open to make sure there is no standing water that can […]

Flipping Affordable Housing

Posted October 23, 2016February 6, 2017 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in Home and Family

The more I travel around the US and Canada, the more I see a huge need for affordable housing.  Many larger markets, such as New York, Los Angeles, Vancouver and Toronto, have a large gap in this area. As I mentioned in my previous post, Orange County FL has an affordable housing initiative to examine […]

The Importance of Permits

Posted October 22, 2016 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in General Posts, Home and Family

Often you hear people saying they want to do work without permits because the feel it’s simply a cash grab by municipalities.  Well, I don’t agree and as a “flipper” you’d think I would. The main reason for permits is to protect the residents of the homes from catostrophic events. It’s to ensure the workmanship […]

Internet and Your Children – teens are still kids

Although this BLOG is mainly about home renovation and house flipping, from time to time I have decided to write articles related to my long time experience in IT Security as as it relates to your home and family. Today, I am going to write about Internet Safety and your children as I think it’s an […]

SPAM/SCAM Email with Meeting request attached

Posted July 19, 2012June 15, 2016 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in IT Security

This is a new one for me.  I don’t believe I’ve ever received this before, but I often delete messages in my Junk folder without reading each one carefully.  Force of habit I guess. But I think you should watch for this one as it may be a test, as when you add the ICS […]

Date/File Backup Strategy

Posted June 13, 2012June 15, 2016 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in General Posts, IT Security

First, let me start off by saying that EVERYONE should be backing up their computers, not just businesses. A backup can be performed many ways.  Some people simply copy their data to a CD or DVD maybe once a year and consider that a backup.  Although it is technically a backup, it’s not the best […]

Small Business Disaster Recovery Planning

Posted May 31, 2012June 15, 2016 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in General Posts, IT Security

OK, so you’re a Small Business.  That doesn’t mean you should think small.  Afterall, the same disasters that affect large corporations can affect you as well, but you don’t likely have multiple locations with mirrored servers and databases to rely on. I’m sure you’ve heard of Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP) before but never thought it […]

You Get What You Pay For

Posted May 25, 2012June 15, 2016 dflenickLeave a commentPosted in General Posts, Home and Family, IT Security

I know it’s an old saying, “You get what you pay for” as well as my other favourite “Nothing is free”, but it seems to readily apply to the digital world. Have you ever wondered how a company can write an app or put up a WEB site and yet charge you nothing for it?  You […]

Apple, Linux & Windows
