anacortes: I'd be happy to show you that home, shall we take your Ark or mine? - 01/10/09 09:53 PM

anacortes: FHA Opportunities in Anacortes - 12/04/08 04:40 PM
I just went to an FHA class sponsored by Wells Fargo. For many years, the housing prices in Anacortes and the FHA loan limits did not even come close to matching up - so we didn't see a lot of FHA loans processed here.

anacortes: What would be really cool? - 11/11/08 06:59 PM
Real Estate sales and marketing of the future - what will it look like? Will blogging be the thing? Holographic agents? What do you look for on the Internet or other venues if you are a browsing buyer? Do you ever use the On-Demand TV stuff for real estate?
