Description:
One of DC's most respected and popular real estate blogs (3,000+ unique readers per day) is looking for 2 part-time writers/reports. We are a very type A group and want people who are driven, professional, have a good sense of humor & can utilize that in their writing, and can play well with others.
The blog is primarily about real estate development in DC and surrounding areas but also includes pieces on: architecture, retail and neighbor development. YOU MUST FIND THIS INTERESTING.

High maintenance/drama
Someone who lives far away--must be able to attend the occasional meeting, hearing, development site, etc
This is a part-time, IN HOUSE position of at least 12 hours a week so you can gain the knowledge you need to write about this business.
The pay is per story--$75. Average story length is 400-500 words. At a minium we want 3 stories per week. Check out our blog and see if your style would complement what we do, dcmud.blogspot.com or, if you're in a hurry, just read one of my favorite stories: http://dcmud.blogspot.com/2012/02/louis-at-14th-development-unveiled.html
