Sunday last I received a panicked call from a friend of mine stating that her home had been rekeyed, it was slated for foreclosure 3 days later. There was personal items all over the home,  it was obvious that someone was still there, There was no attempt to contact the owner (they still owned the home ) to negoate for the keys. to make matters worse the team of professionals that went into the home illegally searched through personal items and when the owner went through the home items were missing. Why would someone that claims to be a professional be so careless. Should the agent be charged for breaking and entering why would they not try to contact the owner in advance and when they made a mistake own up to it. the way we found out about the agent was that they left a supra lockbox ... 05/12/2008

Mothers are everything for us when we are small...our lives revolve around her. For everything that we need we call mother. To protect us from all perceivable dangers we want her around us. To take us out we hold her arms. To kiss away our wounds we run to her. And for a warm hug and love we look for her. She is the focal point of our lives, the greatest human being in the world or should we say divinity on earth. On the special occasion of Mothers Day pay tribute to your mother - the greatest blessing of God on you.On Mothers Day Thank your MotherThere is simply no way we can ever really thank mother for all she has done for us. She is the one who will be awake all night when we are sick. Praying to God to make us well and be ever ready to bear the pain that we may be experiencing. Sh... 05/10/2008

A recent article from MSNBC.com, reports that the Federal Reserve announced recently that it is ramping up efforts to provide more relief in the spreading credit crisis by making up to $200 billion in cash available to cash-strapped financial institutions. The Fed said it will lend the money to financial institutions for a term of 28 days, rather than overnight. The new lending initiative "is intended to promote liquidity in the financing markets for Treasury and other collateral and thus to foster the functioning of financial markets more generally," the Fed said. The new program is called the Term Securities Lending Facility. The Fed has been working to pump billions of dollars into the banking system to aid an economy rocked by the subprime mortgage crisis and the severe tightening o... 03/17/2008

Deciding how much house you can afford                       OR    Before you start house hunting, you need to determine how much house you can afford, which will entail getting either prequalified or preapproved for a home loan. A real estate agent can help you find a mortgage broker to begin the process. While getting preapproved is a more in-depth process, a preapproval letter lets both real estate agents and sellers know that you're a serious shopper who means business.What do I do to get prequalified?A prequalification can be done online or over the phone and does not require your submitting financial documents. You will be asked to provide basic information about your finances - for instance, your household income versus your debt load. With this information, the lender will estim... 02/19/2008

After watching yesterday's games- played in freezing temperatures, I'm quite certain the players will be looking forward to landing in sunny Glendale Arizona. The city of Glendale awaits the crowd with open arms. Go to their official site for information about Arizona. Go to their companion site for information about superbowl activities. It's called "Glendale's Got Game". Super Bowl XLII kicks off Sunday, Feb. 3, 2008, at the University of Phoenix Stadium.    01/21/2008

Between all the stats, charts, media, physics, buyers, sellers, investors, lenders, Realtors and spiritual advisor's, no one really knows when that will be. Some say 2008, some 2009, others choose not to make any predictions at all. I've only been a Realtor for 4 years and I haven't seen a "normal" market yet. Even before I was a Realtor, I remember people complaining that they couldn't get  their homes sold and I remember the economy being in a much worse condition than it is now (Of course, I'm old enough to remember the odd and even plate number to get gas days). Way back in 1989, I sold my home in Phoenix in less than 2 weeks. This wasn't a good time for real estate sales either, if I remember right, so how did I do this you ask? I listen to my Realtor and priced my home right and I... 01/09/2008

A lot has been said and written, reports and statistics, regarding the "sale" of homes in the Arrowhead Ranch area.  We've all heard the argument why it is better to own then rent.  While I agree owning a home, brings with it the investment in one's future, some times renting is the right thing to do.  Maybe you are saving money for your first home, waiting for your home to be built, or possibly relocating.  Below is an overview of residential properties available for lease in the Arrowhead Ranch 85310 and 85308 zip codes.  Interested in leasing in the Arrowhead area?  Give me a call.Condominiums and TownhomesThere are 11 condominiums and townhomes rentals available located in the communities of Arrowhead Lakes Condominiums as well as The Fairways at Arrowhead Country Club.  These condo... 01/09/2008

2008 has been rough, here we are, 4 days into the year, and I haven't sold a thing. When is it going to change? I thought by now the market would be on the rebound and there would be buyers and sellers knocking on my door to help them with their real estate needs.

But in my opinion these are some pretty darn good ones.10.) Your family and friends will be star struck every time you enter the room.9.) You get to cut out that pesky middle man, the health insurance company, and pay the doctors directly.8.) You feel sorry for the oil companies, so you want to do your part in helping them by driving around for hours.7.) Everybody is dying to get a card with your picture on it.6.)
