What the Federal Reserve Did In Plain English and Rates for Renton Home Buyers - 09/23/09 04:07 PM
A Simple Explanation Of The Federal Reserve Statement (September 23, 2009 Edition)
The Federal Open Market Committee voted to leave the Fed Funds Rate within its target range of 0.000-0.250 percent.

In its press release, the FOMC noted that the U.S. economy is "picking up following its severe downturn" and that financial markets have "improved further".

Cedar River Off Leash Dog Park Opens and The City of Renton and RUFF Volunteers Did A Nice Job. - 09/23/09 09:44 AM

Not hearing the phrase “I wish I was a real estate agent” anymore - 09/22/09 01:06 AM
Great article from Todd Clark Beaverton Oregon Realtor.   It pretty well sums up a conversation I had with a client this evening.  The value to our clients has become very evident now.  I am glad when one of them tells me "Gary you are just the best."

Ben Bernanke Leaves Clues About The Future Of Mortgage Rates
