sunset beach nc: Buster - what can I do to show my appreciation? - 01/06/10 10:21 PM
Buster has been a part of the family for over 10 years. He is a great loyal friend. He has always brought joy and has never been a problem. He has better manners than many people I know. Other than guarding the house he is also a great foot warmer - quite the 22 pound furry furnace. Yes- for all he does he is provided free room & board plus medical coverage and it is money well spent.
Friday afternoon he decided to take me for a walk. We walked right up to a couple looking at a couple model homes in … (6 comments)

After procrastinating for a year today was THE day to get it done. This was going to be the third time going through the program so it was not really looked forward to or it would have been done a year ago.

sunset beach nc: Has Real Estate Bottomed? - 11/05/09 10:50 PM
Has Real Estate Finally Hit the Bottom?       The REAL question is "Should you really care?".
Sellers - Sellers need to decide if it makes a difference to them, if they have another choice, If it is better to hang on until maybe the 2nd quarter of 20??. Divorce, job transfer, retirement, and a host of other reasons could have sellers deciding it makes no difference as outside circumstances can have sellers feeling they have no choice or it makes no difference. They simply decided to sell. Many believe it will be better to 'hang on' until prices rise. Under some … (0 comments)
