realestateforthesoul: May you all sneeze at important moments for Your God! - 06/09/08 01:53 AM
SNEEZE
They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-two students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With their rich maroon gowns flowing .. and the traditional caps, they looked almost . as grown up as they felt. Dads swallowed hard behind broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears. This class would NOT pray during the commencements----not by choice, but because of a recent court ruling prohibiting it. The principal and several students were careful to stay within the guidelines allowed by the ruling. They gave inspirational and challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine guidance and no … (5 comments)

realestateforthesoul: Home Value - Increase the value of your house today - 04/29/08 01:23 PM
Increasing your home value is such a "open-ended" term because one persons treasure can be another persons nightmare. For example adding a swimming pool in the back yard can easily be viewed as a "Wow" factor to someone who loves having a pool and can afford the maintenance of owning a pool. However, to another person it may appear as more of a burden and a safety issue which will decrease the value to that buyer. Some clients are just dead set against a pool. They see it as a extra monthly expense and if they have small children they do … (2 comments)

realestateforthesoul: Attention California Realtors -CAR Posted A RED ALERT-HELP!!! - 04/29/08 11:43 AM
Red Alert! C.A.R. OPPOSES Point-of-Sale Mandate!! Call Assembly Member Betty Karnette to Ask that the Point-of-Sale Provision be Removed from AB 2678!
C.A.R. is OPPOSING AB 2678 (Núñez) which among other things, requires that ALL homes and commercial property in California have an energy audit at point-of-sale and that mandatory energy efficiency investments be made. While C.A.R. appreciates the goal of AB 2678 C.A.R. strongly opposes the point-of-sale requirements in AB 2678 because they fail to achieve the bill’s objectives and, such mandates will further weaken the housing market. If enacted, AB 2678 could add thousands of dollars … (0 comments)

realestateforthesoul: Should the Feds fix the Housing Market Failure? - 02/26/08 11:23 PM
WE are now dealing with a 100 billion dollars in bad loans. Should the Feds fix the housing market?
From everything I have read, I see that this mess started with buyers with bad credit getting bad loans and greedy, unethical banks gouging the unsuspecting for the all mighty dollar. Now who is suffering though?
I have read that some think that the Buyers should be taught a lesson, Some think that the lenders should be fired and some say that the Borrowers should be allowed to stay in their homes and pay the fair market value for the rent.
It that all sounds … (8 comments)
