real estate: Costco: Bulk paper towels, tires, coffins and .... Mortgages? - 05/24/12 09:41 AM
Everybody has been to Costco, whether you are a member there or not. We all know the convenience of those stores, especially for big families, since you can pretty much find everything you are looking to buy in one place, in great quantities and (sometimes) for a better bargain. Even small families go to Costco maybe to buy the items that don’t go bad, like paper towels, soap, detergent, etc. You can even buy a coffin at Costco. When I first heard that on the news I was shocked, or thought I was, until I heard that now Costco is

real estate: Is it true that Hallmark came up with Valentine's day? - 02/14/12 01:22 PM
Hello everybody! Happy Valentine’s Day. This morning while I was getting ready for work, I was reading people’s comments on Facebook and I realized that about half of the people on my Facebook were dedicating a post to their loved one(s) while the other half had very mixed feelings about what we celebrate today. The people who had the not-so-positive things to say about Valentine’s, were mainly calling out on Marketing and how we are manipulated into buying and consumerism. I can’t say it was all black or white; there were a few strays that were neither in favor nor against

real estate: Remember that Home buyer's tax credit back in 2008? - 02/13/12 01:16 PM
Did you -or someone you- know buy a home using the 2008 Homebuyer’s tax credit? Originally, this tax credit was granted as a credit to first time homebuyers on their tax return. The maximum available credit was $7500 and it functioned, basically, as an interest-free loan. Initially, this tax credit was to be paid back by buyers over a 15 year period. On the other hand, buyers who purchased a home in 2009 were eligible for a credit refund of $8,000 that did not have to be paid back. This tax credit was intended as a way to help first time

real estate: Release some stress, enjoy the outdoors and lets bring PICNICS back! - 02/10/12 04:18 PM
We are having very busy days here at the DiBiase Team and sometimes we forget that, as humans, we need breaks from work too. Most of the time, people who are busy will either bring lunch from home or go buy something fast and eat while they work or at their desk. It’s scary to read how our sedentary lifestyles are starting to become a threat to our own health. You see it on the news or read it online; sitting at the computer uninterruptedly will make you tired, mess with your sight and posture, give you head aches and

real estate: It's not what you know, it's how you decide to use it.. - 02/08/12 12:16 PM
I feel like it was yesterday that this new year started, however it’s already February, can you believe it? It seems to me that we started the new year with the right foot because we have been busier than we were by the end of 2011. This month I will be completing my Tom Ferry Sales Power training and as it’s winding down, I feel really confident to say that I have learnt a lot from this course. I read a post yesterday that said something like “do not confuse Education with Intelligence” and though I agree with this, I must

real estate: I went "FARMING" this weekend, no dirty clothes, but LOTS of smiles! - 01/24/12 01:36 PM
During the first weeks of January, our team was putting together what would be our first newsletter. We started out with a few ideas and it rapidly snowballed into a great publication. We did some research on the best ways to print it so it would look as nice as we wanted it to and after a couple of days editing, we had our final product. Our newsletter mainly focused on my “farm”, which would be the community where I live. This is actually a crucial part of my yearly goals for 2012, which is to get to really know my

real estate: ONE FACT you HAVE to KNOW before 2012 ENDS!! - 01/19/12 01:07 PM
The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act and Debt Cancellation ends in 2012 (unless they extend it). And what exactly is this act about? It was signed in 2007 and it generally allows taxpayers to exclude income from the discharge of debt on their principal residence. In other words if you short sale or foreclose on your primary residence, after the lender forgives the debt, a 1099-C form is issued. This form is a cancellation of debt, and the remaining balance of the loan becomes a taxable income for you. From 2007 until 2012, homeowners doing a short sale or foreclosing

real estate: Don't be a DISCOUNT agent!! - 01/18/12 02:06 PM
The DiBiase Team does not want to be one of “those agents” that reduce commission just to get the listing. I want to remind agents that you are worth every $$ you earn in your commission. Many agents out there are starting a trend of reducing their commissions as low as 1% to get as many listings as possible. In the recent Tom Ferry training class, he reminded us of the importance of our commission and gave a very visual explanation of how to present that to the seller. These are some important points to stress to your next seller in

real estate: I'll take a Lead with that Vanilla Latte to go! - 12/20/11 12:32 PM
For a few weeks now, I have been attending a seminar that takes place every Thursday at one of our RE/MAX offices here in Phoenix, AZ. The seminar has been really interesting and I can say I am a true believer of most of the ideas the coach is teaching us. Actually, our company hired this high profile man to come and train us on his sales power strategies. The man is no other than Tom Ferry. He is a top trainer, motivator, speaker, author and business coach for professionals in the real estate and financial services industries. According
