There is a little Madness out there! - 03/26/10 12:09 AM
There is a little Madness out there!  March Madness that is...and I love it!  College Basketball is one of my favorite sports and during this time of year, I try to watch as much as possible.  Now there's another reason to watch...a little piece of Pullman is creating some MAGIC! 
His name is ALI FAROKHMANESH!  A mouthful to say for sure...yet the excitement he's caused is magic.  This young basketball player from Northern Iowa University has definitely stirred things up!  He grew up in Pullman, WA and grew up playing Basketball, but after finishing high school, no Division 1 universities wanted him, … (9 comments)

Favorite Day of the Week! - 03/25/10 12:17 AM
I love Thursdays!  I look forward to it every week!  I begin the day with my Diet Coke, and a copy of what homes will be on tour in Pullman, WA.  I drive to the Coldwell Banker Tomlinson office and meet up with a number of my colleagues who are ready to head out right before 9:00 a.m. 
 We hope for a sunny day and take turns being the pilot of our office REALTOR TOUR!  It's a time we can discuss properties currently for sale, new listings that are coming on, and the listings which have sold or now have a new lower … (9 comments)

All In A Day's Work! - 03/24/10 03:18 PM
All in a day's work for a REALTOR®!  A perfect day for me!  My client has received his keys to his new home, his first home!  What an incredible feeling for him and for me.  This is the best part of the job I believe!  What a glorious feeling, knowing that you have helped your client acheive the American Dream...to own their own home.
I smile when I think of the joy he must feel as he receives his keys and drives to his home for the first time.  So many memories will be established for a lifetime.  The creation of … (2 comments)

Wake Up! - 03/15/10 05:19 PM
It was VERY hard getting up this morning!  Oh Boy, was it hard!  I did my part because of Daylight Savings.  I woke up yesterday and worked on changing all the clocks, made sure I arrived on time at my appointments and enjoyed the extra hour of sunlight!  What I didn't do was tell myself that I would need a very loud alarm clock to get me going this morning!!

I hit the snooze button about 4 times!  That was a big mistake!!  I jumped out of bed, rushed around like a crazy woman, and ran to work to get there … (10 comments)

The Joy of A New Beginning! - 03/11/10 12:06 AM
The joy and happiness that a newborn brings to family, friends and the community is extraordinary!  In our case, it was the joy that my young daughter felt as she held this newborn baby that caught me by surprise.  I felt her joy and smiled deeply as I watched her carefully hold the baby like one of her most special dolls. 
She jumped in the car after school and asked if our dear friend had had her baby.  When I told her yes and that we were going to the hospital to visit, she jumped up and yelled.  She didn't hesitate … (8 comments)

The Question of True Value in Today's Market - 03/08/10 06:23 PM
I met the Appraiser at a property in our area this past week.  After I answered a couple of questions, I left the Appraiser to do his job.  As I drove away, I remembered an article I had read recently regarding the impact of Short Sales and Foreclosures on the Current Market Value of Properties for Sale.  I now await the Appraiser's Report and hope that the value comes out positively.

According to the National Association of REALTORS®, nearly one in four REALTORS® have experienced a negative effect on a transaction due to a low Appraisal.  Unfortunately, about 40 percent of all homes sales this year have been either … (4 comments)

Biggest Grin In Arizona! - 03/08/10 12:48 AM
Finally, the night she picked up the car.  Her face says it all doesn't it?  After years of not having a car of her own, my daughter has her first car and the biggest grin I think I've ever seen on her face.  Her FIRST CAR!  She found it, she's paying for it, and she will take great care of it.  I know that for sure....even her spoiled doggie has to sit on a mat in the back seat!

WAY TO GO MY GIRL!  I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!

A Silver Medal Designation! Congratulations to Pullman High School! - 03/04/10 05:30 PM
From the time that we moved to Pullman, WA, seven years ago, I was told that the schools were excellent.  That made sense to me since Pullman is a college town, home of Washington State University and the WSU Cougs!  I knew that it competed athletically and academically within the state and always ranked very highly.  My daughter, who enrolled at Pullman High School, worked hard to achieve good grades.  I experienced through her the level of excellence from the educators, the administrators and the staff.

I just learned that Pullman High School was awarded a Silver Medal Designation!  Wow! A high number of schools, 21,796, … (2 comments)

Vroom, Vroom For My Girl! - 03/02/10 01:40 AM
What an exciting day for my daughter and for mom!  My Girl has just purchased her first car!  It's a little funny for me to say it is her first car, but it is!  She is thrilled and I am so happy for her.  After years of her being in College on the East Coast and then living in New York City for four years, she was in need of a vehicle to drive around in Arizona.

It was a night of going back and forth at the dealership, calls to mom and close friends for advice, and finally, mom's negotiating skills were put … (8 comments)
