Kindergarten? Why Didn't I Go? - 08/31/11 08:33 PM
Kindergarten?  Why Didn't I Go?! My first day of kindergarten was one I'll never forget - oh wait.... I didn't get to go to kindergarten!  I never thought about it much until reading the comments and posts for Charles Buell's Kindergarten Contest here on Active Rain but why didn't I get to go?! I grew up in a Catholic family in tiny town in northern California called Rough and Ready and attended a Catholic school in Grass Valley (the next town over) called Mount Saint Mary's. It just so happens as my mom told me today, (Seems you really can learn … (15 comments)

Home Mortgage Interest Deduction May Soon Be History - 08/22/11 02:41 AM
Time to get the word out and make our voices heard to those representing us.  Our home interest deduction is the only thing going for many because our equity is so depleted and may take years to recover.  All the programs out now support the lower class but what about those who have just worked extremly hard to buy their homes and now will be penalized because of that.  It's time to bring back the concept that hard work pays off.  Thanks Doug for bringing this to light again!

Recommendations for Short Sale Lenders - What about Close of Escrow Timing?

As a member of the California Association of Real Estate, I've signed up to receive their weekly newsletters - C.A.R. Newline report.  It is really informative and I encourage any of you who are members to look into it.  One of this week's topics was about Recommendations for Short Sale Lenders.  What I think they are missing is the close of escrow timing.
Maybe they have attemped to cover it in the first item "provide realistic time frames and then meet those time frames" but I … (2 comments)
