Today I write my first blog post from my new laptop.  My old laptop belongs to someone else now, as my car got broken into this weekend.  My old laptop was about 8 years old and very password protected so I imagine it is a dumpster somewhere wondering why I abandon it.  The theif also got my old ...

The sun was shining and there were open house signs everywhere.  Unfortunately I think in the spring when it finally gets nice, people flock to Home Depot, not open houses.  So, did I use my extra time wisely, by writing note cards and sending emails... no.  I went to a website called hulu.com.  ...

At least once a month, I take my father-in-law who is home bound on a field trip.  Today we went to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm just outside of Woodburn OR and the Mt Angel Sausage Factory in Mt Angel for lunch.  When you get to the Tulip farms, there are gift shops, places to eat and a free tram ...

A group of 8 of us from our office piled into one car and headed into downtown Portland to hear Rick Deluca speak.  I have heard him before, but he is always great to hear.  It's the stuff you need to hear over and over and over again.  Here are a few of the things I took away today. Get your lis...

I sing with Cascade Harmony Chorus, a Sweet Adeline Chorus in region 24.  We just got back from competition and what a great time we had.  It seems like only yesterday when we dreaded going to competition.  About 5 years ago we got a new director, and she had us start doing things like actually s...

So in the past couple of days I have talked to a couple of past clients that have flipped houses and they are ready to start doing it again.  There are a number of bank owned homes that are priced low and need fixing.  So I stocked up on handy-wipes in my purse again and am back on the hunt for y...

I realize everyone does not celebrate Easter, but I have told all my clients no open house on Easter.  I will be busy going to church and probably filling myself to the gills at some wonderful Easter Buffet some where.  So if I did hold an open I would be napping the whole time.  Next week I will...

Last week I had the opportunity to go with a group to the Hat Museum in Portland.  Ok, I know, how does this have to do with Real Estate.  I learned quite a bit about the history of the Ladd Addition, so it was real estate based.  Anyway, back to the hats... Unbelievable amount of hats as far bac...

As the days move along, its getting closer to the deadline of "getting in contract" to get the tax credit.  I would certainly say this is evident by the amount of activity in our office and the number of people I had through my open house.  I was thinking I might have a quiet open house so I brou...

We are definitely seeing more activity in our branch.  I took a listing on Monday and got an offer on Wednesday.  I have also been seeing more activity at open houses.  I still see prices coming down a bit, but it seems like we are close to the bottom.  We are also looking into getting a scansnap...
