Dear Mr. Robert Kohn:

We have reviewed your response letter dated July 29, 2005 and have the following additional comments. Provide to us the information requested if indicated and please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation.

FORM 10-KSB FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

Financial Statements and Notes

General

1. We have read your response to comment one. We noted that as a part of the reverse merger with the public shell, you combined the three individual private companies owned by the same individual shareholders, eliminated the combined equity of the private companies and replaced it with the equity of the publicly traded company. Since the reverse merger created a new capital structure for you, please explain the basis for presenting the financial statements on a combined instead of consolidated basis.

2. Please explain to us how you accounted for the combination of the three individual private companies before the merger with the public shell and your basis in GAAP for this accounting treatment. Please identify, if applicable, the controlling person, entity or group and explain your basis for this conclusion. Refer to the guidance in ARB 51 and EITF 02-5 and paragraphs D11 to D18 of SFAS 141.

Combined Statements Of Stockholders` Equity, page 18

3. We have read your response to comment two. The consultants subsequently sold the stock issued and you based the compensation cost of the issuance on the sales price of the stock at time of sale. Tell us how this valuation is supported by the guidance in paragraph 8 of SFAS 123 and EITF 96-18.

Note B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Land Options, page 21

4. We have read your response to comment three. We noted that you pay a non refundable deposit down for agreements to purchase property. Tell us how you considered paragraphs 5, 14, and 15 of FIN 46 (R) in determining your accounting of the non refundable deposit options. Also, we noted that you book the entire contract price to land inventory with an offset to accounts payable. Tell us the basis in GAAP for recording these amounts. In addition, for each of the options described in your footnote (e.g. specific performance options, options with variable interest entities, and other options), please explain the major terms of the options and quantify the amount recorded on the financial statements.

Post Development Completion Costs, page 21

5. We re-issue comment four from our previous comment letter. With respect to those instances in which you have post development construction obligations relating to sold developments, please explain to us how you considered paragraph 45 of SFAS 66 in your accounting for these sales.
