      <title>Give Me A Break!!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Are you a compulsive multi-tasker? I sure am! I seem to always be in a hurry and be doing several things at one time. I sometimes find myself drifting or daydreaming. I have learned that that is a signal that I need to take a break before hitting the bottom of my mental barrel.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;One technique I have found that works extremely well for increasing productivity and reducing mistakes is to sit at your desk and do nothing for two minutes. Seriously.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://donothingfor2minutes.com/"&gt;Donothingfor2minutes.com&lt;/a&gt; is a site that asks you to just relax and listen to waves for two minutes. There is just one rule, DO NOT touch your mouse or keyboard for two minutes. I failed in the first few seconds when I tried. Let me know how you do.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>How To Escalate a Short Sale Issue To Fannie Mae</title>
      <description>&lt;h2 style="font-size: 16px; color: #333333;"&gt;How Can Real Estate Professionals Escalate a Short Sale Issue to Fannie Mae?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p style="color: #333333; font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;a name="escalate" style="color: #1e77b9; text-decoration: underline;"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div id="howtoEscalateContainer" style="color: #333333; font-size: 12px; margin-left: 15px;"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are a Realtor seeking assistance with an active short sale, you can escalate certain short sale issues directly to Fannie Mae to get the answers you need. You should contact Fannie Mae when:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px;"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You are ready to list a property and need a recommended list price.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You want to contest a value Fannie Mae has assigned to a listed property.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You haven't heard back from the servicer&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You have an issue with an offer currently under negotiation&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To contact Fannie Mae about a short sale issue:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol style="margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px 0px 0px 40px;"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Determine if Fannie Mae owns the loan by using our&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.knowyouroptions.com/loanlookup/" title="Loan Lookup Tool" target="_blank" style="color: #1e77b9;"&gt;Loan Lookup&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;tool.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Ask your client to complete Fannie Mae's&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://homepath-activedt.netdna-ssl.com/css/cobrands/shortsale/Borrower-Authorization-Form.doc" target="_blank" style="color: #1e77b9;"&gt;Borrower Authorization Form&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;If you&amp;rsquo;re not behind on your mortgage payments but have been unable to get traditional refinancing because the value of your home has declined, you may be eligible to refinance through MHA&amp;rsquo;s Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP). HARP is designed to help you get a new, more affordable, more stable mortgage. HARP refinance loans require a loan application and underwriting process, and refinance fees will apply.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Program ends December 31, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>A Bad Neighbor Can Bring Down The Value Of A Home</title>
      <description>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; color: #8064a2;"&gt;A bad neighbor can bring down the value of a home, possibly by even up to 10 percent, according to the Appraisal Institute. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; color: #8064a2;"&gt;What qualifies as a bad neighbor &amp;mdash; or &amp;ldquo;external obsolescence&amp;rdquo; in appraisal speak? Home owners with &amp;ldquo;annoying pets, unkempt yards, unpleasant odors, loud music, dangerous trees and limbs, or poorly maintained exteriors,&amp;rdquo; according to the Appraisal Institute. The organization recommends home owners take action. For example, banding together with other neighbors to approach the &amp;ldquo;bad neighbor&amp;rdquo; together and check if the home is violating any municipality codes or subdivision restrictions that you can report. In some cases it may be worth hiring an attorney.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title> Do you think it is going to rain?</title>
      <description>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1 blog_post_text" style="font-size: 18px; color: #0000ff;"&gt;I love apps for my smartphone. Some are so helpful and others are just plain fun. I read about one recnetly though that sounds really cool. &lt;a href="http://whatsnext.blogs.cnn.com/2011/12/20/app-predicts-down-to-the-minute-when-itll-rain/" title="great cell phone apps" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1 blog_post_text" style="font-size: 18px; color: #0000ff;"&gt;Take a look and see what you think!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://happygrasshopper.com/links/rain" target="_new" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1 blog_post_text" style="font-size: 18px; color: #0000ff;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Here is the scenario: &lt;img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/2/0/4/7/4/ar136763007047402.png" height="111" alt="" style="float: right; margin: 10px 12px;" width="200"&gt;you just ran into the grocery store to grab a couple of things when a downpour starts. What do you do? Make a run for it or wait it out. This app can acutally tell you!&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1 blog_post_text" style="font-size: 18px; color: #0000ff;"&gt;Unlike traditional forecasting tools, it will tell you when the rain will start and when it will stop. Would you pay $5 for it? I think I would!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 18px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 18px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0000ff;"&gt;&lt;span class="blog_post_h1" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 18px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>March 2013 Market Report Shows Number Of Listings On The Market Increased</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;The number of listings on the market increased 2.36 percent in March from the previous month &amp;mdash; possibly an indication that sellers are becoming more willing to put their homes on the market as asking prices increase, according to housing data from realtor.com. While the data shows a month-to-month inventory increase, inventories are still down 15.22 percent compared to last year. The median age of the inventory continues to drop year-over-year by 12.35 percent, the amount of time homes are sitting on the market has fallen by 20 days since February, according to realtor.com. The median age of inventory of for-sale listings was 78 days in March. &amp;ldquo;The next three months will be significant in determining the impact of the recovering housing market,&amp;rdquo; says Steve Berkowitz, chief executive officer of Move Inc. Median list prices have increased year-over-year in a greater number of the 146 markets realtor.com tracks. &lt;em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title>Short Sales - Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) Program </title>
      <description>&lt;h1 class="page-title" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-size: 2.6em; font-family: 'Jockey One', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; vertical-align: baseline; color: #222222;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0000a3;"&gt;Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives (HAFA) Program&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div class="entry" style="margin: 0px; padding: 5px 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.5em; color: #222222;"&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;If you can&amp;rsquo;t afford your mortgage payment and it&amp;rsquo;s time for you to transition to more affordable housing, the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternatives&lt;/strong&gt;(HAFA) program is designed for you. HAFA provides two options for transitioning out of your mortgage: a short sale or a Deed-in-Lieu (DIL) of foreclosure. In a short sale, the mortgage company lets you sell your house for an amount that falls &amp;ldquo;short&amp;rdquo; of the amount you still owe. In a DIL, the mortgage company lets you give the title back, transferring ownership back to them.&lt;strong&gt;In either case, HAFA offers benefits that make the transition as favorable as possible:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul style="margin: 0px 0px 20px 1.5em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;You can get free advice from HUD-approved housing counselors and licensed real estate professionals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;Unlike conventional short sales, a HAFA short sale completely releases you from your mortgage debt after selling the property. This means you will no longer be responsible for the amount that falls &amp;ldquo;short&amp;rdquo; of the amount you still owe. The deficiency is guaranteed to be waived by the servicer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;In a HAFA short sale, your mortgage company works with you to determine an acceptable sale price.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;HAFA has a less negative effect on your credit score than foreclosure or conventional short sales.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0000a3;"&gt;When you close, HAFA provides $3,000 in relocation assistance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title> Short Sales -  How Do They Work? How Much Does It Cost?</title>
      <description>&lt;h1 class="page-title" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-size: 2.6em; font-family: 'Jockey One', Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; vertical-align: baseline; color: #222222; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 20px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="color: #10036c;"&gt;Short Sales&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;div class="entry" style="margin: 0px; padding: 5px 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14px; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 1.5em; color: #222222;"&gt;
&lt;h3 style="margin: 20px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-size: 1.5em; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is a short sale?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;A short sale happens when a lender is willing to accept a lower pay off on a loan than what is currently owed. In a short sale, the borrower will owe more on the property than the home is worth at its current state, however, a short sale happens only when a homeowner qualifies through some kind of hardship.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why should I short sale my home?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;To settle for a foreclosure means accepting the damage to your credit a foreclosure would bring. It also means accepting the fact that in many states, the lender will seek a deficiency judgment in the amount that is owed. A short sale by itself will typically lower your credit score by 50-120 points, however the hardest hit on your credit will be from missed mortgage payments, not the short sale itself. Your credit will usually recover from a short sale in as little as two years, whereas a foreclosure could dampen your ability to take out any future mortgage loans for at least five years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do I get any money back from a short sale?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;In many cases, cash back incentives are given to homeowners who complete the short sale successfully. The Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternative program offers homeowners $3,000 cash back to help with relocation expenses. This money is in addition to any other relocation assistance and incentives specific to your lender.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do I qualify for a short sale?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;While lenders have become more lenient in recent times, there are typically three qualifications required for a short sale.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol style="margin: 0px 0px 20px 1.5em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Financial Insolvency (no other major assets),&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;The proceeds from the sale of the property, after all closing costs are paid, are less than the amount currently owed on the property, and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Financial hardship. Acceptable hardships may vary, but some common ones are; loss of income or employment, divorce or separation, relocation or job transfer, property in need of repairs without resources to make repairs, major illness and medical expenses, death of a family member, vacant rental properties, etc. In most cases, a short sale is not for those who want to sell, but only for those that have to sell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who will pay the short sale Realtors&amp;nbsp;commission?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;The lender will customarily take care of all fees associated with the short sale process; this meaning your short sale specialist as well. In most cases, borrowers pay nothing out of pocket to complete a short sale.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What happens with the money that is forgiven by my lender?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Any difference on your mortgage will typically be written off as a loss by your lender. Some lenders may send out a 1099 for the amount that was forgiven. However, the Mortgage Debt Relief Act of 2007 states that you will not be required to pay taxes on the money if you did a short sale on your primary residence before the expiration of the bill. The bill however is not quiet that simple. Consult the appropriate representation in all tax and legal matters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can I still do a short sale even If I am going through a foreclosure?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Absolutely. You will not be asked to move out until the closing. If your specialist is actively working with your bank, your lender will typically delay the foreclosure proceedings making it possible for you to stay in your home a little longer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can my current Realtor&amp;nbsp;handle my short sale?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="color: #10036c; font-size: 16px;"&gt;This is a question that really needs to be researched. Short sales are specifically designed to be handled by experienced short sale specialists who have many short sales completed under their belt and the proof to back it up. There may be Realtors who claim they can take on a short sale, but it&amp;rsquo;s very important to check out their proof to those claims. It would be devastating to begin a short sale only to see it was rejected due to an incompetent Realtor who claimed to be able to bring you to a successful completion of your short sale. When searching for a short sale specialist, make sure you have a list of questions you would like them to answer and make sure you can feel completely comfortable with them. There are also many who claim to be distressed property experts after taking a weekend training class and earning a certification. While proper training is one factor to consider, experience is everything.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Home Prices Soared Nationwide</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #05076a;"&gt;Home prices nationwide, which includes distressed sales, soared 10.2 percent year-over-year, according to CoreLogic&amp;rsquo;s February report. It&amp;rsquo;s the largest year-over-year increase in home prices since March 2006. It also marks the twelfth consecutive monthly increase in national home prices, according to CoreLogic&amp;rsquo;s report. When excluding distressed sales, home prices rose 10.1 percent year-over-year in February, according to CoreLogic. CoreLogic predicts that home prices -- excluding distressed sales -- will likely rise 11.4 percent year-over-year from March 2012.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I love infographics.. I saw this one on Green Roofs and &amp;nbsp;was intrigued!! I need a new roof on my house, wouldn't it be cool if I did a Green Roof?? After all, they last twice as long as a regular roof, they lower your utility bills, they resist fire, and they can feed a pet!! WOW, what else could you ask for?.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;They cost about $8 a square foot to install which is really not that bad.. So what do you think? Would you consider a green roof?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/movotoblog/2013/02/greenroofinfographic.png" alt="Are Green Roofs Really Good for You?"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>March 2013 Market Reports For Western Upstate SC</title>
      <description>&lt;h2 class="entry-title"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #0033cc; font-size: 18px;"&gt;March 2013 Market Reports are Available!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div class="entry-meta"&gt;&lt;span class="meta-prep meta-prep-author"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="entry-content"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline; font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Monthly Indicator Report&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;With spring here in all its bounty, it&amp;rsquo;s time to renew, refresh and revive our understanding of what&amp;rsquo;s fueling the ongoing market recovery. First, tightened inventory levels combined with strong demand are fueling price gains in many areas. Second, consumer demand is shifting from distressed properties to conventional homes. Third, record-low mortgage rates and rising rents are supporting housing recovery. Let&amp;rsquo;s check the local scene.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;New Listings in the Western Upstate region increased 11.6 percent to 730. Pending Sales were down 29.9 percent to 197. Inventory levels shrank 1.7 percent to 3,807 units.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;Prices moved higher. The Median Sales Price increased 3.3 percent to $127,000. Days on Market was down 27.5 percent to 112 days. Absorption rates improved as Months Supply of Inventory was down 3.4 percent to 15.8 months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;On the economic front, things inched forward. We saw a minor but important upward revision to Q4-2012 GDP growth that put us back in positive territory. In the political arena, key debates over the deficit, marriage, gun law, immigration reform and tax policy rage onward. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and with this emerging housing recovery, there are no imminent housing-related bills. Perhaps that&amp;rsquo;s a good thing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline; font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Housing Supply Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;With a full quarter worth of data, the keen market watcher is tracking just how 2013 is stacking up. For the 12-month period spanning April 2012 through March 2013, Pending Sales in the Western Upstate region were up 1.7 percent overall. The price range with the largest gain in sales was the $100,001 to $150,000 range, where they increased 13.8 percent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;The overall Median Sales Price was up 0.4 percent to $127,000. The property type with the largest price gain was the Condo segment, where prices increased 8.3 percent to $94,500. The price range that tended to sell the quickest was the $100,000 and Below range at 138 days; the price range that tended to sell the slowest was the $350,001 and Above range at 199 days.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #0033cc;"&gt;Market-wide, inventory levels were down 1.7 percent. The property type that lost the least inventory was the Single-Family segment, where it decreased 1.5 percent. That amounts to 15.5 months supply for Single-Family homes and 19.4 months supply for Condos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>The Millennial Generation - The Largest Demographic Wave In History</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #8000ff;"&gt;The Millennial generation is about 90 million strong&amp;mdash;forming the largest demographic wave in the country&amp;rsquo;s history&amp;mdash;and some reports suggest they&amp;rsquo;re readying for home ownership. Millennials&amp;rsquo; entrance into home ownership has been delayed due to the recession, high unemployment, and high student loan debt. They&amp;rsquo;ve been living in their parents&amp;rsquo; homes, as well as delaying marriage and having children, surveys show. But the pent-up demand from this generation is starting to surface, says Fred Ehle, vice president for PulteGroup. Homebuilders, like PulteGroup and Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, recently revealed surveys of what Millennials want in their future homes. In general, the surveys reveal that this generation isn&amp;rsquo;t wowed by luxury and prefers technology and flexible space. As for what they&amp;rsquo;re looking for in a home, they appreciate an efficient use of space, an open layout for entertaining, ample storage space, and outdoor space that extends their living areas, according to the Pulte survey of 531 adult renters between the ages of 18 and 34. &amp;amp;#39;What may be different about this buyer is that they may have more stuff,&amp;amp;#39; says Fred Ehle, vice president for PulteGroup. &amp;amp;#39;It&amp;amp;#39;s different kind of stuff: technological gadgets, gaming. They also do work from home.&amp;amp;#39; The Better Homes and Gardens survey of 1,000 adults ages 18 to 35 found that Millennials don&amp;rsquo;t like traditional floor plans and prefer unique spaces. They like to do home improvements themselves and are &amp;ldquo;fix-it&amp;rdquo; types. One in five said that &amp;ldquo;home office&amp;rdquo; is a better suited name for their dining room, according to the Better Homes and Gardens survey. What&amp;rsquo;s more, 43 percent said they want to transform their living room into a home theater. The survey also showed they&amp;rsquo;d rather have extra space in their kitchen for a TV than a second oven. Nearly two-thirds of those surveyed say they wouldn&amp;rsquo;t purchase a home without up-to-date tech capabilities.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/4/5/9/2/ar129135034429546.png" height="52" alt="" style="float: right; margin: 25px;" width="200"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Get Ready For The Healthiest Spring Home-Buying Season Since 2007</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #000099;"&gt;Get ready for the healthiest spring home-buying season since 2007, according to Freddie Mac&amp;rsquo;s U.S. Economic and Housing Market Outlook for March. ( Believe me, I'm ready!!) The mortgage giant is forecasting low rates and increasing housing prices to continue, as well as gradually improving consumer confidence that will likely boost home sales this spring. Sales are expected to rise 8 to 10 percent in 2013 compared to 2012 numbers, Freddie economists report. Freddie Mac also expects housing starts to rise to 950,000 units this year compared to 780,000 in 2012. 'History shows us not all economic recoveries are created equal, and consumer confidence mirrors this fact,&amp;rdquo; says Frank&amp;nbsp;Nothaft, Freddie Mac&amp;rsquo;s chief economist. &amp;ldquo;With the spring home-buying season upon us, the recent highs in the stock market are a welcome signal of better times ahead. But it will be the gradually declining unemployment rate and steadily improving housing market that will deliver broad-based economic benefits for Americans and, in turn, support the overall recovery.'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title>The Numbers Are Not Always What They Seem</title>
      <description>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Numbers Are Not Always What They Seem....&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;Numbers can be misleading. For example, the stock market has been up over 10% thus far this year. That is great news for those who bought stocks last year. As a matter of fact, stocks are up a huge 125% from the lows hit during the financial crisis four years ago. That is a great rate of return for those who purchased stocks at that time. On the other hand, if you purchased stocks at the peak five and one-half years ago, the returns would have been close to nothing. Let's add one more level of analysis. If you purchased stocks twenty years ago, the Dow is up more than 400%. We can say the same thing about housing prices. Last year, median home prices rose to almost $180,000 -- up 10% in the past year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;On the other hand, the median home price was almost $220,000 in 2005. Twenty years ago? The median home price was hovering just over $100,000. Obviously, which stock you purchased or which home you purchased will have a big factor in your rate of gain. Different stock sectors and different geographic locations have performed very differently over time. Here we are only taking into account time. Timing any market should be left to professionals and even they are often wrong. Those who are looking to time their purchase of real estate or stocks to get in at the right moment are much more likely to be wrong. The right moment was twenty years ago. Today is likely to be the right moment twenty years from now. The key is a long-term mentality and then you can take the day-to-day or year-to-year out of the equation. Numbers are not always what they seem to be when you look at the small picture. The employment numbers released recently can have an important affect upon what will happen next week. But not twenty years from now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 18px; color: #660033;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;span style="color: #8000ff;"&gt;This&amp;nbsp;video will make you CRY with laughter ( it did me anyway). It's seven minutes of genius from Kid's Say the Darndest Things with Bill Cosby and an incredible 4 year old. I hope you enjoy it!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.222222328186035px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12.222222328186035px; line-height: 20px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #8000ff;"&gt;Which do you think he grew up to be, a Rockstar or a Paleontologist?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;

      <title>NAR report on What Buyers Want</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;Recent home buyers who want a walk-in closet but didn&amp;rsquo;t get one in their home say they&amp;rsquo;re willing to spend $1,350 for one. That&amp;rsquo;s just one of the important findings in the 2013 Profile of Buyers&amp;rsquo; Home Feature Preferences, released by the National Association of Realtors. Buyers who wanted new kitchen appliances but didn&amp;rsquo;t get them say they&amp;rsquo;re willing to spend $1,840 for them. Those who wanted air conditioning are willing to spend $2,520. The report looks at 33 home feature preferences based on what a representative sample of U.S. households that bought between 2010 and 2012 say they value. Just over 2,000 households participated. Among the findings: Households in the South tend to want the biggest and newest homes, and they like wooded lots. Those in the Northeast are most likely to like hardwood floors. First-time buyers and single women are big buyers of older homes. Households with children and move-up buyers like larger homes. The report also contains these tidbits on buyer preferences:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; Among buyers 55 and older, 42 percent want a single-level home, compared to just 11 percent of buyers under age 35. Single women also tend to place importance on single-level homes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; Single men want finished basements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; Single men and married couples place importance on new kitchen appliances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; Among all 33 home features in the survey, central air conditioning is the most important to the most buyers; 65 percent consider this very important.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; The next most important feature is a walk-in closet in the master bedroom; 39 percent considered this very important.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&amp;bull; Also important &amp;mdash; buying a home that&amp;rsquo;s cable-, satellite TV-, or Internet-ready.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;

      <title>Homes Are Selling Faster As Demand Picks Up</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 16px; color: #000066;"&gt;Homes are selling faster as buyer demand picks up; leaving a very low supply of homes left for sale, according to the February MLS data figures from Realtor.com. Homes in February sold faster than in any February since 2007, according to the site. In February, homes were on the market for a median of 98 days&amp;mdash;that&amp;rsquo;s down from 123 days in February 2011. In some markets, homes are spending even less than a month listed for sale, most notably in places like California. For example, in Oakland, Calif., homes spent a median number of 14 days on the market in February before they were either sold or removed from the market for other reasons, according to the Realtor.com data. &amp;nbsp;A total of eight metros in the top 10 for fastest selling times were in California, with only Denver (median 28 days) and Seattle (median 33 days) rounding out the list. The median number of days on the market was also less than two months in places such as Phoenix, Washington, D.C., Detroit, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando and Fort Lauderdale. With home sales picking up pace, buyers and sellers are less likely to see price reductions on homes and to see more multiple offer situations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="agent_signature"&gt;
