21 Comments on Who is the Coolest Dude Who Wears Curtain Shoes on Active Rain?
Hey Brian, what do you know about Portable mortgages? They are the default in Canada and only Etrade has them here (but with a ton of restrictions).
Imagine, a 30 year fixed that you can take with you if you move to another house within 30 years.

Sara: Thanks for sharing that :)
George: I hope you caught he was the coolest dude who wears curtain shoes. I have to cover myself because there are TOO MANY cool dudes on AR but I bet they don't wear curtain shoes. Thanks for the on the side tutoring you have been giving me :wink wink nod nod: I have been entirely too busy to concentrate and start implementing but you do definitely get close to runner up status, if you wear curtain shoes :)
Frank: that sounds interesting! I didn't even tell Brian I was doing this or he may not know ...yet!
Wow! Thanks, Renee. This is a nice compliment.
Frank, I do know about portables but the state specific laws make them near impossible to execute here. The legal costs are prohibitive that it is almost always cheaper to get the new loan. This issue comes up about every 3-4 years.
Renee, WOW, what a post. And what does this post say about the person who wrote it? Your an awesome lady. Such kindness sure went a long way with this one. I know how important it is to be a L.O. that will let you know where you and your client stand. Professionalism in this business is a must. It is refreshing to see such dedication here. Thanks for sharing!
Renee, this is such a sweet post. GO Brian!! You're a great gal, Renee.
I have the same quesiton as Danny. What on earth are curtain shoes? And do you think Imelda Marcos had a pair?
Hey Renee - we're all anxious to hear just what "curtain shoes" are!! Great post and a very nice way to say thanks to someone who made an impact on you.
Ann
Here is Brian's post on Curtain Shoes. I laughed pretty hard when I read that back in December trying to imagine this suspender wearing mortgage guy being Oh, So San Diego. Those shoes are way cool!
Brian: Thanks for everything and clarifying the portables :)
Danny: Read the post above! He has a clickable link to the vendor. I think Curtain Shoes may be more of a San Diego thing than a Texas thing but let us know if you get some!
Bob: This place is so wonderful in SO many ways for what it has done for my business and the connections I have made, I cannot even explain in one or two sentences!
Sharon: Agreed 100%!!!
Maggie: Thanks :) Hmmmmm Imelda. I do suspect these are a beachy thing and I don't know if she was into beachy :)
Diane: Brian is a very smart dude and he wrote about them in December. In between his intellectual writings he posts some pretty great breaks and this was one of them. I remember this was the first time I saw his personality shine when I read it!
Edited:
Ann: You snuck in the back door: THANKS!
I just wanted to add this because it is definitely noteworthy and Brian didn't post it here:
Brian Brady is announcing the first Economics of Real Estate Carnival. This Blog Carnival is open to Active Rain Members who post submissions to the Economics of Real Estate Group dated Friday, February 23, 2006 through Monday, February 26, 2006.
Ah, "curtain shoes" - I checked them out on that link, and they are, ah, interesting looking shoes, that's for sure....... I think I would have had a different definition of them. But, hey, whatever floats one's boat, eh?
Must be a west coast thing, I would guess...... ;-)
Funny!
Ok Renee, I will hop on the Brian Brady applause train. I have spoken with Brian several times. A couple of months ago he was helping one of my sellers get a loan for new construction. This loan was just a standby loan in case I couldn't get her home sold in time to close on the new build. Didn't matter to Brian. He gave my seller his full attention. Anyway it turned out we didn't need the loan after all.
Well 2 weeks ago my seller had to go to CA to see her son and Brian Brady was kind enough to take her out to lunch and make her feel really at home. My seller has to go back out in March and Brian has offered to "watch her back" for me. So there you have it. Brian Brady, great guy and super mortgage man.
Great testimony to a great guy. I met Brian face-to-face in Long Beach at the on-line marketing seminar. No opportunity to do a deal yet but he is on MY list for sure.
Way to go, Renee. I'm sure Brian appreciates the accolades that are clearly well deserved.
Jeff
Renee.....
I thought I had Mr. Brady as an associate, but I didn't... YOUR post about him made me look again....and I corrected my error.....
Brian ROCKS!!
=-D
Ann: Must be!
BB: He is a stand up, most patient guy!
Jeff: I am sure he does!
Alexander: WOW! Glad you found that!
Brian is definitely the Dennis Miller of Mortgage Bloggers! He sure beats the heck out of John Madden obsessing over Turducken for weeks before a major holiday! If you anyone hasn't caught his blog posts, they are well worth a read through.
Quite the diplomat, Brian always contributes in a smart, respectful manner. Pats on the back for Brian, and for you, Renee for honoring him.
