HAWAII OPEN HOUSES (RULES WHILE ATTENDING) - 04/30/07 05:48 PM


Open Houses in Hawaii are a given.  We market the property through advertising in the newspaper for our Open Houses and everyone (from buyer's to neighbors  to people who are thinking of selling their home in the same area) attend these Sunday events! Yup...Sunday events!

Buyer's can use Open House's as part of their home search (along with the private appointments your realtor sets up) so following are some guidelines (I call these the lucky seven) for buyer's while at an Open House:

MOM....IF I COULD GIVE YOU THE WORLD I WOULD! - 04/26/07 12:18 PM

"Meaningful words".  I have always been a lush for "meaningful words".

Big News in Hawaii-Dalai Lama on Maui - 04/25/07 12:44 PM
 
I believe everyone has some kind of spiritual sense of being and for me it is working on self from the inside out.   I bought one of his best selling books "The Art of Happiness" and to this day have not read the whole thing.  Don't you think this is a time for peace and compassion?  (Well, I do. And I believe it is about time to take my book out again)
Everything I have ever read on the 14th Dalai Lama has been about his peace and compassion for everything in the world. The Dalai Lama stood before a crowd of over 10,000 people at the War Memorial Museum on … (10 comments)

UPDATE! Shadow doing better! - 04/25/07 12:12 AM
I wrote this whole thing out and lost it...now I had to do it again.  I thought I would just post as a group post only and get a response....Hmmmm...
I am feeling very down today.  My doggie Shadow is very sick. (she doesn't act it though!)
