11-13 call to action
On Monday I wrote a post from NAR
regarding their Four
Point Housing Stimulus program. Today that program came out
to us in the form of a Call to
Action from the Realtor Action Center.
Coincidentally, it was announced on the same day that Sec. Paulsen
decided our $700 Billion bail-out package was going to the wrong people
by being earmarked for people in trouble on their mortgages and that
the money should instead go to buy interest in banks, help banks buy
other banks and maybe bail-out GM and/or the auto industry in general
so people could at least drive away from their foreclosed homes in a
new piece of Detroit steel.
If
you got the NAR
email, please PLEASE take the 12 seconds it takes
to respond.
2 clicks and your voice is heard. It's sad that out of 1.1 million
Realtors, the best we can do as a grass roots organization is a measly
7% reponse on something that directly impacts our future. If you didn't
get the NAR
email you can either logon to Realtor.org
or
click on the logo below. Once you fill in your name or your
NRDS #, it
will automatically select the appropriate Senators and Congressmen for
your region. If you're not familiar with the plan, follow my Four
Point Link to read the text and explanation of why this is so vital not only to
our industry but to our entire economy.
If
you've never responded to an NAR call
to Action
before, please take a moment to respond to this one. The plan will
probably never see the light of day because it's simple,
straightforward, only costs $100 Billion and would work directly to
stimulate the 'BUY' side of the housing equation at a time we need it
the most. But if we could get 200,000 or 500,000 or a freakin' million
of you to put
your mouth where your mouth is - we could make a
difference.
