THE REAL SOLUTION - to illegal immigration: Fix the real problem. - 07/31/10 03:29 AM
Friday, Dee Mayers of California posted a little noticed but provocative question relating to illegal immigration.
In part, her post went like this:
 
"Arizona's new immigration law requires the police to stop people on the street and ask for legal status if officers have reasonable doubt they are in this country illegally.  On Wednesday of this week a federal judge blocked this part of the law and other parts of it from taking effect, is this the answer to the perplexing  problem of illegal aliens?  What  is the solution?"
 
Here is my considered response.   It expresses a view which … (16 comments)

Did your state make the BOTTOM TEN list for foreclosures? Mine barely missed. - 07/28/10 03:20 PM
Oregon barely missed being ranked in the Bottom Ten states for foreclosures during first quarter, 2010.
A national report recently released by RealtyTrac shows that at 33.6 % Oregon ranks 11th worst of the fifty states in foreclosure sales as a percentage of all home sales. Here is the list of that Bottom Eleven:

Buying a house now could be the best hedge against inflation …EVER! - 07/27/10 02:41 AM
Here is great advice from Georgia that applies just as well here in Oregon.
 
It is a great time to buy.  Low rates.  Low prices.
If it's a great time to buy, it must be a great time to both sell and buy.
 
Because the future is what matters....not the past....
equity you only thought you had anyway.
 
That is so crystal clear, it's hard to see why more current homeowners aren't acting.

Are Tankless Water Heaters Really Green? - 07/26/10 09:46 PM
It's tough to think about hot water in the July heat, but here's some fuel for your consideration on the hot subject of tank-less water systems.  It may make you cool on the idea.....or not.
 
 
 
Via Chris Livingston (Pillar To Post):
Instant water heaters don't have the standby losses of storage units, but when the result is an 'endless supply of hot water' real savings are dubious.

Tankless water heaters have one advantage over conventional storage units: no standby losses. Instead of keeping water hot around the clock, regardless of whether it's actually needed, tankless units heat water only … (7 comments)

Homes for Sale - Housing for Rent - And complying with the new law requiring CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. - 07/25/10 07:33 AM
Is your place legal?  Does your home or rental unit comply with the new law requiring carbon monoxide detectors?
You can see it as a great boon for housing safety or as one more time the Legislative Assembly has over-reached.  Either way, it's time for all owners with homes for sale and all landlords with housing to rent to get ready to comply with the State of Oregon's new law and regulations on carbon monoxide detectors.
 
THE LAW APPLIES TO: Any single family home, duplex, manufactured dwelling, or multifamily housing that contains a source of carbon monoxide (CO) emissions.

Do the big national lenders know up from down in dealing with homes for sale in Eugene and Lane County, OR? Or anywhere else for that matter? The answer, of course, is "NO!" - 07/09/10 05:52 PM
Do the big national lenders know up from down in dealing with homes for sale in Eugene and Lane County, OR?  Or anywhere else for that matter? The answer, of course, is "NO!"
 
Example Case One:I received two emails over the last few days from Chase. I sort of disregarded them because they were asking if I was the listing agent for a particular home for sale in Eugene, OR.  I wasn't.  And I was out of town for the Fourth of July - my sole summer break with my family.  Then on Wednesday, I attended Active RAIN's RAIN CAMP in Portland, … (10 comments)

How Does Independence Work In Your Life? - 07/04/10 03:48 AM
Here is Katerina Gassett's "reflection" on Independence (Day).
I like it.
 
The Fourth of July doesn't seem to be much of a time for reflection for many....just a long summer weekend.
 
The Founders were of one mind about only one thing:  the need for Independence from Britain:  as Thomas Paine argued:  it defies "common sense" for a continent to be ruled by an island.
 
The Founders would be all over the board on the issues of our day.....just as they were about such things as federal powers, states rights and powers retained by the people way back there … (2 comments)

Let Freedom Ring! - 07/04/10 03:04 AM
 
Here's a nice thought for the Fourth that I've decided to re-blog.
 
I couldn't resist adding a responding verse of my own:
 
In the noise of your night
Watching the fireworks swoon
Remember the fireworks of battle
Won't be over any time soon.
 
 
But read Marianne's first.
 
Via Marianne Vanek (Century 21 New Millenium):
in the quiet time of your morning
watching the fireworks of the sun
remember the fireworks of the battlefields
where your independence was won.
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY 2010!!!!!!!!

Phew! 11th hour reprieve on the closing extension for tax credits has passed! - 07/01/10 04:01 PM
This is great news for those still involved in closing tax credit transactions.
 
But it does nto speak to the huge decline in sales of existing homes that has occurred since the tax credit deadline of greater importance passed on April 30.
 
 
Via Janna Rankin Scharf - Realtor Coeur d'Alene and North Idaho Homes (Keller Williams Realty Coeur d'Alene):
Talk about down to the wire!  Late yesterday the U.S. Congress approved a bill that extends the closing deadline for homebuyers trying to take advantage of the popular tax credits.
Homebuyers with contracts signed by April 30 who weren't able to get their … (2 comments)
