  Good News for housing! New Home Sales actually INCREASED…. According to data released this morning by the Commerce Department, sales of new homes hit a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 307,000 in October, up 1.3% from the previous month and up 9% from October 2010. While demand is still weak — in a healthy housing market roughly one million new homes sell each year — some experts see the uptick as a sign the long-suffering new home market may be on the mend.

I have been on the low carb diet for a month and have lost 15lbs. So I'm going to use these tip that I'll share with you on Healthy Eating During the Holidays!   During the holiday season, there are plenty of tasty temptations to derail the eating plans of even the most disciplined people. Here are some tips to help avoid dreaded weight gain while still enjoying the holidays:    *Eat a light snack before going to a party. Arriving famished means you’re more likely to overeat.   *Choose beverages wisely. Alcohol is high in calories, which are stored as fat.  Watch out for calories in soda, punch and egg nog as well.   • Be physically active every day. A brisk 30 minute walk can reduce appetite and burn calories.    • Avoid recreational eating at gatherings. Use small plates, take   smal... 11/21/2011

Anytime you lease as many houses as me you have made a lot of mistakes. Hopefully we have learned from these mistakes and can help our clients keep from making the same ones.   Here are just some of the hard lesions we have learned.  1. “Let’ set the rent high and look for an offer Tenants make decisions on what to preview based on digital photos, property descriptions and asking rent. They look at 5 to 8 homes before they complete an application. They are comparative shoppers and know when the asking rent is too high. Setting the rent high, and waiting for an offer, will guarantee you a longer vacancy. Tenants are typically not good at negotiating. Filling out an application and paying a fee, “just to see what the owner might take”, is costly and time consuming. They won’t do it!  Pri... 11/20/2011

  According to Harvard Business School professor Laura Roberts, your professional image is the set of qualities and characteristics that represent perceptions of your competence and character as judged by your key constituents (i.e., clients, superiors, subordinates and colleagues). You must take a strategic, proactive approach to managing your professional image. "If you aren't managing your own professional image, then someone else is," says Roberts. Since your constituents are constantly observing you, sizing you up as a professional, Roberts says, "It's only wise to add your voice in framing others' theories about who you are and what you can accomplish." The first thing you need to do is determine how you want to be regarded. Most working professionals list things such as highly co... 11/17/2011
