      <title>The Benefits of a Home Warranty</title>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SR3R0avXlNI/AAAAAAAAAUw/nmN0kvq-Hdw/s1600-h/logo-HWA.png"&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SR3R0avXlNI/AAAAAAAAAUw/nmN0kvq-Hdw/s200/logo-HWA.png" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268597837554750674" border="0" alt="" style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 88px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
As your listing agent, I would advise offering a home warranty to the buyer, when marketing your home for sale.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
As your buyer's agent, we will ask for a home warranty to be included in the home purchase.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Home Warranty of America has a short video explaining the benefits of a home warranty.

      <title>High School Homeownership Education</title>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SRsrTKt5kTI/AAAAAAAAAUo/zfV1vEUIEDY/s1600-h/j0438494.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SRsrTKt5kTI/AAAAAAAAAUo/zfV1vEUIEDY/s200/j0438494.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267851797434306866" border="0" alt="" style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Effective January 2009, Senate Bill 2387 (Public Act 95-0863) requires that school officials add homeownership education, including lessons on mortgages to their consumer education curriculum. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The Senate gave its approval to Senate Bill 2387. This bill adds homeownership, including the basic process of obtaining a mortgage and the concepts of fixed and adjustable rate mortgages, subprime loans, and predatory lending, as a component of consumer education courses taught in Illinois high schools. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
As a licensed real estate professional, I believe this is a good addition to consumer education. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
One of the very first steps in buying a home is mortgage pre-approval. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000099;"&gt;Jim Starwalt&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Thinking of making a move?

      <title>WalkScore.com - Find a Walkable Place to Live</title>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SRi8DSX2-NI/AAAAAAAAAUg/Z5GawxFYboY/s1600-h/j0430804.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SRi8DSX2-NI/AAAAAAAAAUg/Z5GawxFYboY/s200/j0430804.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267166528867334354" border="0" alt="" style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;WalkScore.com - Find a Walkable Place to Live. This website lets you input an address to determine what is close by or within "walking" distance.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
From their website &lt;a href="http://www.WalkScore.com"&gt;WalkScore.com&lt;/a&gt;:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
"Walk Score helps people find walkable places to live. Walk Score calculates the walkability of an address by locating nearby stores, restaurants, schools, parks, etc. Walk Score measures how easy it is to live a car-lite lifestyle&#8212;not how pretty the area is for walking."
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
From the website, an explanation on scoring:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
"What does my score mean?
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Your Walk Score is a number between 0 and 100. Here are general guidelines for interpreting your score:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
90&#8211;100 = Walkers' Paradise: Most errands can be accomplished on foot and many people get by without owning a car. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
70&#8211;89 = Very Walkable: It's possible to get by without owning a car. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
50&#8211;69 = Somewhat Walkable: Some stores and amenities are within walking distance, but many everyday trips still require a bike, public transportation, or car. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
25&#8211;49 = Car-Dependent: Only a few destinations are within easy walking range. For most errands, driving or public transportation is a must. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
0&#8211;24 = Car-Dependent (Driving Only): Virtually no neighborhood destinations within walking range. You can walk from your house to your car!" 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Check it out. Put in your address and find your home's walkability score. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
There's a lot of good information on this site, including the most walkable neighborhoods.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
It's a fun site and it just might get you motivated to get outside and go for a walk.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

If you have five minutes and your last 12 months of utility bills, use the ENERGY STAR Home Energy Yardstick to compare your home's energy efficiency to similar homes across the country and get recommendations for energy-saving home improvements from ENERGY STAR. You will also need to enter some basic information about your home (such as zip code, age, square footage, and number of occupants). If you don't have your bills, contact your utility company for a 12-month summary.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Complete an online energy audit for your own home at the Government's &lt;a href="http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=home_energy_yardstick.showStep2"&gt;ENERGY STAR &lt;/a&gt;site.

      <title>What To Do With Your Leftover Halloween Candy</title>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SQzErOfvlcI/AAAAAAAAAUQ/5O_irvUwTwQ/s1600-h/j0422837.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_giGZ_kNOLYY/SQzErOfvlcI/AAAAAAAAAUQ/5O_irvUwTwQ/s200/j0422837.jpg" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263798311393924546" border="0" alt="" style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 156px; height: 200px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The weather this year, on Halloween Day in Lake County, was great. Mild temperatures, no rain. It was nice to see the neighborhood kids having so much fun.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
But now that Halloween is over, you may be trying to decide what to do with your extra or leftover candy.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Here is a great solution from our local Realtor board:
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
"...Wanted: Your extra Halloween Candy.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
RANWC Charitable Foundation Helping Our Heroes would like to take that extra Halloween candy that is always hanging around after the holiday off your hands. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
We will use that candy to send overseas to give a little Halloween spirit to soliders. 
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
If you have extra candy that you would like to donate to Helping Our Heroes - please drop it off at any of RANWC's offices.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Thank you!..."
