Moving Company Scams - 03:03 PM
Each year, about 15 million American households move, with the majority changing households between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Unfortunately, this same time period also is peak season for moving company scams.

Patience - 11:50 AM
Note to buyers, sellers and in this case perhaps most importantly myself, patience is a virtue.  Don't get me wrong,  I'm the type of guy who often wonders when something isn't done, why it wasn't done yesterday and in Real Estate, in many cases I've found this to be a good attitude.  For example, when you're waiting on finishing details with a sales contract, inspections etc. you don't ever want to procrastinate.  All you're doing is setting yourself up for disaster.
But in the negotiation phase you have to be patient sometimes.  When you're on the list side of a deal and a co-broke sends you a lowball … (7 comments)

Why you Should Build a Home....... - 03:28 PM
Most people find it difficult to save. They simply spend their money as it comes. When you build a home, you save all that money. A home is a huge investment in capital. This means you also make a huge savings for the future.
Property values increase with time.
There is pride and fulfillment in owning a home.
Your home can serve as collateral when you need a loan to execute another project. Your car can't. Even your most expensive electronics gadgets can't.
Building a new home elicits an overwhelming excitement in you.  Once your home is done, it's your project … (0 comments)

Is Localism a Neighboripedia in your area? Or a dump? - 04:28 AM
Localism- a fairly new term- as least for me.
