Listed today, as a new listing, Bearbrook Golf Course.

Anyone looking to buy a course for Christmas I am your agent! :)
will you accept golftown credit?
Now that would be a sweet commission for ya :-)
That course could actually be made into a rel nice layout if someone had the money to sink into it and make say 18 to 27 real good holes and build a descent clubhouse/pro shop.
Good luck Steph!
Hey it comes with a house for the greens keepers! and if you close before next season I can get them to throw in a sleeve or 2 of balls.
You are just too kind.... I will check Bugsy's piggy bank and let ya know :rolleyes ;)Quote:

I swear to god if someone with a brain and some money well spent --that place could be a goldmine-well silver anyway. Hope it re-opens in the spring-a lot of people enjoy the course and since the greenskeeper from Metcalfe was coming over things were actually starting to improve. :)
How about the forum pooling all their credit and buying the course. It will be a co-op style setup. We will have somewhere to run the spring and fall tourneys for free!
Then when we get bored we can sell it to clublink and make a pile of money!!!
Let's see; 4.5 divided by 60= 75,000.00 each-----you make your 10% = 450.000 :-) How do the rest of us make any money---were all too old to wait 30 years :-)
thanks for doing the math................ 75k at todays rates over 40yrs, seriously most car payments are more than that!!!
and as we know cars are poor investments
You guys better hurry up, I have already emailed clublink!
i say we get 100 guys from the forum to each chip in $50k and we could own a golf course. think about it..... people pay alot more in initiation fees alone at some course, and for that price we could be owners... what you all say... im in. im sure the bank will loan me $50k with zero collateral.
C'mon Super 7! I'd still have 22 million left over. :)
Jared, you have a mind for long term investment and business.
I will even invest my commission!
good luck with clublink, WAAAAAYYYY to close to greyhawk,
Sure..............just go ahead and burst my bubble!!! good thing I did not spend that commission!
You already spent the commission..... for a CL membership at Greyhawk :PQuote:

Go to http://www.lacapitalevendu.com/ & "engligh" & click on quick search by this # OU050735
It comes with a house & some kind of pro shop, & at $350k, just think...
Most car payments do not take 40 years to pay off.;) I'd be dead by then and not get anything back on my investment!Quote:

You couldn't convince me to join Renfrew next year for $750, so you decided to up the ante and try to convince me to own my own course.Quote:

What did you expect for $350k?
You with no car, you should be living on a course anyway.
Johnston could finally realize his dream of owning his own pro shop, & I could realize my lifelong dream of being able to write off liquor sales!
We could have a place for Frank to stay when he drives up from Pensylvania.
I just need to come up with a catchy name for the course to entice the saturated Ottawa/Gatineau golfers to drive 2 hours... "Royal Rippin' Ripon"?
Isn't that the truth :-)Quote:

It's a 9 hole course, but that's all I can find. I have never heard of it before this thread.

I am not certain of those details if I did I would not be able to disclose them in this forum. I could go to real estate jail!
I didn't think so, but had to ask! :PQuote:

The 350 one would be cool if you were retired and had a friend who enjoyed lawn mowing...
Hey Rick - Why are you still in St. Thomas anways :D
Is this worthy of a CLUBLINK purchase?
NO!Quote:

"The Bear" has been up for sale for the past 5 yrs.. The price is roughly for the property and "brook"..It's a package deal :-)
Rumor has it that it may not open in the spring... Lots of construction work done on a couple of holes that are now un-playable. No tarps on the greens also. Heard owner down south and not too interested in coming back.
Website down also... hmmmmmm
It really sucks this whole Bearbrook thing. I was planning on getting a membership over there this summer. Pretty cheap and 5 minutes from my place. But now that I hear that it might not open in the spring, and if they are trying to sell, even if it opens, it might not be kept in very good shape I guess if the owner doesn't care for it. Oh well, probably gonna start considering a EG membership.
Try Hammond. If you are that close to Bearbrook then Hammond must be pretty close too.Quote:

Thanks for the advice. I have won a RM last minute membership through the Fantasy golf league after all, perhaps I could just do that.
