Have you been to Wannadoo City yet? I went about 2 years ago and was not happy. Maybe because my kids were to small yet to enjoy what they had there. But we thought we give it a try once more now that the kids are older. You see I have been on a quest to do things with the kids during the summer. Trying to take them out instead of staying home.  WannaDoo City has a great summer program going on. Your ticket price is for a 10 day summer pass is $52.95, where your one day pass is $29.95, and parents are free. So we opted for the summer pass. Pretty good deal. We took them today and what a blast they had. They got to ride in a fire truck and put out a fire. They got to be CSI agents and go looking for bad guys. They got to work at Publix. They went treasure hunting at the Dinasour exhibt. ... 06/12/2008

Well the new iPhone is going to go on sale July 11. The phone looks the same except it will move faster and will have video capablities. And it will be selling for a lot less then when it origiinally came out 2 years ago. Now I have the original one. Is this new iPhone that much more impressive than the one I currently own. I don't think so. I don't plan on trading my phone in, but I think this is the perfect time for those who have wanted to buy the phone. It only cost $199.00. I think that its great they made it so affordable.  Looks like Steve Job knows that if he would have had it higher no one would have gone to buy it. I wonder how many people plan on buying this time around. I love my phone and you won't be disappointed when you buy yours! The phone is my contact folder, internet... 06/09/2008

I was going through the MLS today trying to pull up property for someone. And by doing this I was noticing that almost everyone of the listings I was pulling up kept saying in the comment section- 55+ coomunities. Now when I was first licensed and when doing my board orientation one of the main things that was stressed was not to use this term. There is a field now that allows us to choose to HOPA- Housing Older Persons Act. Yet time and time again I still see agents use the term 55+. Why would you want to jepardize the possiblilty of getting fined? I know I wouldn't. And why does the MLS allow this to continue? I guess that is why no one is worried about being fined! Just me ranting away is all. 06/09/2008

  So you're starting to hear more About Short Sales as a possible way to avoid foreclosure. But you're asking what is it and how do you qualify?  Good questions.  First let's look at "What is a Short Sale?" You may have heard this before but lets not assume that everybody looking in here knows the answer. We'll get into more detail shortly.       A Short Sale is when you receive approval from your Lender (Bank) that they will agree to allow a Buyer to purchase your home for less than what is owed on your home(mortgage balance). For example, You owe $300,000 on your home and you have a buyer who has offered to pay $225,000. Your Lender will agree to accept the $225,000. This approval is based on a number of factors that will be addressed in another Chapter. You've received approval now f... 06/06/2008

Now I don't think I have every shared this with every one. I know some of you know. But I am going to share something about myself. You see I have what you call Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have had it for several years. I have had my ups and downs with it. I was first diagnosed in 2000. Having real bad bone pain and swelling of my joints. So bad that when I would wake up in the morning I could barely move. My husband would have to carry me to the restroom. Now I'm not looking for sympathy here. What I am trying to get at. After I had my last son, I started to fall apart. I mean REALLY bad. I would wake up crying in pain. My hands were two times the size. I kept going to the Doctor and he kept increasing the medicines I was on. After about three months on a certain medicine he would change i... 06/06/2008

OK now that I week 2 challenge was down and over with I was so excitied that I won that round. Now woth every listing call that I get I am now sending my Pre- Lisitng Package. I just met with a seller today who I spoke with earlier in the week to set up an appointment. I went ahead and emailed her the package, the mls stats and the power point presentation. She met me at my office. Can I tell you how much easier this appointment went! All we needed to discuss was the numbers. She already knew what my plans were, What she had to compete with, and how I had planned on marketing her property. She signed the papers and we made another appointment to go to the house to take the pictures and get it ready for the MLS. Now I hope that all the rest of my appointments go that way as well. Do you ... 06/06/2008

Yesterday Kristi Ross wrote a post on RealSeekr.com.  So I went to take a look as was very happy with the site so I joined. I had noticed on her post that my board was not listed in the group. So I had asked to Gia's number. What she had did was forward her my question and would get back to me. I recieved a DM from Twitter. Which surprised me because you can only get a DM from someone you are following. In the message was a number from Gia. Well I gave her a call and we started to talk I then realized who I was speaking with. I had been following Gia on Twitter for a couple of weeks and tweeted back and forth not realizing she had this site. So we talked about the board issue and she got to work. She gave me a call this morning with different ideas of how we could solve this issue. I go... 06/04/2008

OK I know lots of you are looking to find out what Midori and I came up with. She posted yesterday some of what we did. I was going to yesterday, but I was fried and needed to relax! What a week.Like I said the other day, when we got this challenge I knew it was going to be hard for me since I had no listing presentation. I pretty much would wing it. I was only using a CMA from the MLS as one, and no idea about using a pre-listing. I have a listing appointment coming up and you know I am definetly going to send this presentation to him.The email I sent Rich was both a combination of video and texted. Since I have never met Rich I wanted him to be able to put the face with the name. Making it a little more personalable. Here is the email I sent. I wanted to be aware of how many homes we... 06/03/2008

Wow week two challenge is over and today is the day we find out the results. I can't tell you how much work this week was. As Midori mentioned yesterday I had no listing presentation together. I am with a small broker and usually would use just the CMA that came with the MLS for a listing presentation. So I had to start from scratch. Having to research and gather all stats and figure out what I was going to use. Now this entire week was hectic. She had her Tech fair and I had my kids home from school. So my research was done either very early in the morning or late at night while we were on Skpye. I had all these different ideas and trying to get them out of my head was not easy. Every tiime something popped in I would shoot Midori an email. And she would say we could work with that. S... 06/01/2008

I have been absent this week from the rain and Midori was the one to post. I had a challenging week! Well this week flew by. My first weeks challenge of getting my database together was grueling, but very much needed. I could not believe how much needed to be done. And to think i actually thought I had it under control! Jeez was I so wrong. Now I am a Tech Savvy person, but if you don't utulize what you have what good is it to anyone! That is what I learned this week, use what I have!!! I am running a Macbook Pro and have Entourage, which is like Outlook but for Mac. I had a PC prior to Mac and new outlook pretty good. But this Entourage is so much different and I am still learning what I can do with it!!! Learned to impliment some other features that I am avaiable to me. Once I have i... 05/25/2008

Many homeowners are wondering whether or not they can afford to sell their home? They're trying to think of a way to sell their home when they owe more than what it is worth plus how could they list it with a Realtor and afford the commission?
