dayton ohio realtor christina asad edwards: When Do You Change Your Blog and Website? - 05/29/09 05:40 PM

I'm always nervous when I change anything on my website or blog because I want my online presence to be a direct representation of me and my personality.

It feels awesome to have someone compliment my blog or website because I spent so much time customizing them to my clients' needs. I changed the blog background tonight, … (14 comments)

dayton ohio realtor christina asad edwards: What Mortgage Forgiveness Means For You - 04/28/09 01:06 PM

President Bush signed a law that is meant to help homeowners who are facing foreclosure or who sell their homes in a short sale. Before this law, the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007, if your bank or lender forgave a portion of your mortgage debt because the value of your home had decreased, the IRS treated the forgiveness as taxable income. That meant that if your mortgage lender forgave $15,000 in mortgage debt because your house was worth $15,000 less than your remaining mortgage balance, the IRS treated it as earned income. When you filed your taxes, you were … (2 comments)

dayton ohio realtor christina asad edwards: NEW Green Eco-Friendly Paint - 02/06/09 04:28 PM

Jump on the green bandwagon by using green eco-friendly paint at home instead of latex or oil-based paint! Green Seal, an environmental organization, reports that more than 80% of purchasers are buying green products.
