va loans: Do You Have A Purpose??? - 07/21/09 01:27 PM
Most Sales People have goals, whether they are put in writing or not. But how many of us know what our purpose is, or even ashed ourselves what our purpose is. You might ask what is the difference, aren't goals and purpose the same? I would say they are not.
We can have a purpose in life or in business without any particular goals attached to that purpose. But I do not think that we can have goals with out a purpose, and if we do, then that might be the reason why we fail to meet our goals.

va loans: Change To The Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) Connecticut Families Program. - 07/16/09 06:36 PM
On April 18th of this year, I wrote a blog "Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) CT Families New Refinance Program" on a new Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) program called CT Families.
On July 10th Governor Rell signed a bill which expands the eligibility for the CT FAMLIES program. The new legislation now allows for delinquent homeowners with any type of mortgage (fixed rate mortgages, adjustable rate mortgages, interest only mortgages, etc) to be eligible to refinance under this program. Previously, only delinquent homeowners with Adjustable Rate Mortgages were eligible.
This should provide additional help to families who have fallen … (10 comments)

va loans: Food For Thought #2 - 07/14/09 04:20 PM
As I stated in my blog yesterday, I have been in Sales for over 34 years, and there are two things that are closely related, and seem to be a constant regardless of what type of Sales Field a sales person is in. I covered the first one yesterday which focused on continuing to do the things that work for you, and build upon them with new ones. I particularly questioned why new sales people seem to stop doing the things that are working for them, in hopes of some new gimmick that has not produced any results for them yet.

The Connecticut Middlesex County Chamber of Commerce has a very busy month of July planned. Besides the upcoming Business After Hours event Monday July 13th that I bloged about earlier this week, they also have three other events that are great opportunities to network.
All three are the week of the 20th, and starting on Monday July 20 with the Member Breakfast Meeting. The monthly breakfast draws from 600 to 800 members every month and this month it should be a packed house, because Caron Butler, of the Washington Wizards and former UCONN basketball Star will be the guest speaker.

va loans: Connecticut FHA, CHFA, VA, and USDA Mortgages - 07/07/09 07:52 PM
These days here in Connecticut as well as in many other states FHA Mortgages have become the main Loan product. Not long ago Conventional Mortgages were the loans of preference, but with all the changes brought about by Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, Conventional Mortgages have become costly and difficult to do.
During this time I have written about these changes and how FHA in particularly has become the loan product of choice. These blogs are a little spread out so I thought that it was time to provide links to some of them so that they could be easily found.

va loans: Winning Proposal For The New York Yankees. - 06/13/09 09:03 PM
As many of you know from some of my older blogs I love sports, especially baseball. I am also a huge Yankee Fan, and have been so since I was 8 years old.
One of the great things about living in New England for those of us who love sports is the great rivalry amongst our sport teams and fans. Among these rivalries the biggest ones are between Boston and New York Fans. We have the rivalries between the Celtics and Knicks, Bruins and Ranger, Patriots and Jets, and the biggest one of all Red Sox and Yankees.

The purpose of this Expo and Forum is to Develope Strategies for business to manage their energy costs.

va loans: Interest Rates Are Climbing!!! - 06/09/09 01:22 PM
It should not came as any surprise to those of us in the Real Estate Business, that the interest rates have been climbing for almost two weeks now. Even though they went down slightly today, the feeling seems to be that they might go up some more. Of course one person's guess is as good as another when it comes to interest rates. If anyone could predict them accurately, they could retire in a very short period of time.
We can look at the increase in interest rates negatively or we can look at them positively. The first and natural reactions … (17 comments)
