Key to a Secure Password... How Many Do We Need? ..Just One - 12/14/10 01:19 AM
When passwords first were needed I had a simple one and I only needed one.
Then the hackers started hacking into accounts so the web sites started beefing up security.  Now I need more letters. Then banks wanted yet more security so now I have to add numbers or funny little characters.
Then the shopping web sites want extra long passwords.  So by now I have pages of user names and passwords. I can't seems to remember which user name and passwords belong to which sites.  It would take days to go back and change them all to long, numbered … (6 comments)

How About Some Good News for a Change! - 12/14/10 12:17 AM
Good News for a Change!
According to Realtor.org  we should be having a good 2011. Won't that be a relief?  NAR thinks the interest rates will be going up and that is good news.  Why?  Because it will get the fence riders off the fence  because hopefully  they will see that they have to buy a lesser house if they don't get on the house buying band wagon now.
When rates start going up that will give reason to contact our clients through email campaigns, phone calls or whatever method you use to notify them.
Here are the Freddie Mac predictions for 2011.  … (4 comments)

Here Are the Reasons to Buy a House-1st Time Home Buyers - 12/08/10 07:15 PM
Here are the Reasons to Buy A House -1st Time Home Buyers
* The interest rates can't get much lower.  The lower the rate the more house you can buy. Your payment will fit your budget and you will pay less interest to your mortgage company.
* You can, at this point,  still deduct all of the interest and the property taxes that you paid on a yearly basis.
* No worries about having to move because your landlord is in foreclosure or worry about every nail hole you put in the wall. Losing a deposit and moving every year?? 
* Do … (0 comments)

A Different Kind of Christmas Poem..Please Read and Listen - 12/07/10 06:35 PM
A Diffrent Kind of Christmas Poem
This poem, played with music, will open your heart for the holidays. It was written by one of our troops letting us know that they don't want to be forgotten. As we are celebrating in our comfortable familiar place called home, their Christmas home has no tree, shiny lights, Christmas carols or hot cider by the fire. No family hugs are available and they can't see the stars in their childrens' eyes on Christmas morning as they open gifts from Santa.

Cherry Creek Mall Denver, Co Window Decorations..Where's the Spirit? - 12/06/10 09:17 PM
Cherry Creek Mall Denver, Co Window Decorations
As I was walking through this upscale mall I was noticing the window decorations. I also notice that not too many are decorated with the Christmas spirit.  In fact there was no sign of the holidays at all in most of the windows.  Usually every store has something about Christmas but not this year.
The abundance of items on sale is amazing. Some at 40%50% off and it's not even close to Christmas Day yet. Just think what the sales will be after Christmas-Feb.
This thought goes along with the Real Estate market..Most houses … (6 comments)

25 Cents on the Dollar..What a Heart Warming Day
 
This was my first experience to volunteer at the Christmas Store for our church, Colorado Community Church.
It takes 800 volunteers behind and in front of the scenes to make sure 2000 kids gets 2 gifts each.
1400 families are invited to take part in the gift selection for their families.
These brand new toys are displayed on tables according to age of the child. The prices for the toys is 25 cents on the dollar.                                                  
The appreciation and look of relief on the faces of the parents is so … (7 comments)

Funny Bumper Sticker..and Speaking of Christmas Lights - 12/03/10 06:33 PM
Funny Bumper Sticker..and Speaking of Christmas Lights
So here it is Christmas AGAIN!  How will the Sellers decorate their house and yet still allow enough of the house visible to the buyers?
Here's a bumper sticker that says it all.                
As agents we probably should explain to the Sellers to be gentle with the decorations and not go over board with "stuff".
We might suggest to them to wrap empty boxes instead of the real gifts.  Small boxes can easily be taken away.
Instead of lights on the house they could put colored spotlights facing the house.  Hopefully they won't use the … (6 comments)
