carla harbert: Gas Saving Tips on Pumping Gas - - 05/14/11 01:34 PM
A close relative of mine who lives in California, plus is in the gasoline industry for 31 years, sent me this information regarding gas-saving tips. I felt this was really good information to share with all of my activerain readers:
GAS SAVING TIPS ON PUMPING GAS
Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon … (19 comments)

carla harbert: BEWARE of the Seller's Property Disclosure!! This includes YOU! - 04/20/11 03:59 PM
Yes, beware of the Seller's Property Disclosure - there may be more than what is actually stated. I am living proof of that fact. Being a real estate agent, I should have known better.
Here is my living proof:
J) Do you know of any current flooding, drainage, settling or grading or erosion problems affecting the property? answer by seller: Yes.
Please describe:
When heavy rains, the pond overflows.
Ok, sounds understandable enough... but failed to tell us that most of our acreage goes underwater! This is the 4th time this year of severe flooding. And at times, you can't even … (8 comments)

carla harbert: What the Heck? - 04/18/11 05:54 PM
That's right ... What the heck?
I am reading a quote from the Bank of America CEO claiming that "...some people shouldn't be thinking of their home as an asset" ??? which is coming from an article I just finished reading. Again, I say, What the Heck?
Perhaps someone in the financial field would not consider a home an "asset" if there is a mortgage against it, but many home owners have "equity" and when is "equity in a home" NOT an asset?
In my opinion, real estate is an asset in so many ways, from those of us who … (1 comments)
