Kort Linden Professor Rohit Chopra History and Society Foundation Section 1 Take-home Final Essay 5/02/08 Social Narrative & a Life Worth Living What is a narrative? The Oxford English dictionary defines a narrative as, “An account of a series of events, facts, etc., given in order and with the establishing of connections between them; a narration, a story, an account”. Essentially, a narrative is the act of storytelling. Storytelling seems simple, self explanatory. A story is an event which may or may not of happened and to tell it is simply that. However, it seems that story telling has a much more important significance than that. To tell a story is to be human, the very definition of being social. If storytelling is an important part of being human and of establishing a social ident...

I have always strove to be at the top of my class not because this was hugely important to me but because the top ten percent of students receive about ninety percent of academic and non-academic benefit in life. This ten percent rule is something I apply to most areas of my life. That is way I came to Babson, not only because I loved entrepreneurship but because I knew I wanted to be among the top ten percent of business students nationwide. Coming to Babson, I thought that I might be overwhelmed by the intellectual giants here. However, I was inspired to work even harder, and I soon learned that I could thrive like never before among peers of this caliber. Likewise, I hope to be among the world’s best students at LSE. I hope to learn from them, to thrive amongst our collective drive ...

1. Why buy a bank owned home now? Has the market hit bottom? 2. How are you going to get a REAL STEAL on a bank owned home? 3. What if YOU don’t know how to or don’t want to fix-up a house? 4. How can you get your taxes REDUCED on the house you NOW own? 5. What’s the difference between a Bank Owned, Forclosed, REO, and Repo?   1. Why buy a bank owned home now? Has the market hit bottom? Anyone in any market of any kind (including the stock market) will tell you it’s impossible to tell when a market has absolutely bottomed.  They’ll also tell you that if you wait until the bottom is officially “found” you’ll be too late to get the maximum benefit.   The housing prices probably won’t DECLINE much longer.  One indication of this?  Many bank owned homes are now receiving multiple offers  -...

Banks make Loans based on the Four Cs, that come into play when applying for a mortgage loan. They provide a framework within which information could be gathered, segregated and analyzed. What bank underwriters look for are these four factors in approving a mortgage applicant, by verifying information and evaluating the risks of giving you a loan. The Four Cs *Capacity, which refers to the adequacy of the borrower's income to pay the interst and principal due on the loan, plus property taxes and homeowers insurance.    -debt level    -income sources    -length in employment *Capital, which refers to the borrowers's down payment (or equity) as a percentage of the current value of the home.     -cash flow *Character, which refers to the borrower's track record of paying debts as evidenced...

Attention Realtors the usda 100% loan program is back.  It is geared towards rural areas.  It is a great loan program becuase it is based on the appraised value not the purchase price so financing closing cost is still an option with this program for your borrowers than can truly afford the house but just dont have the closing cost money.  Great stuff!!!!

No matter what the market, people will continue to desire to live in Victorville, as it remains one of the most active cities within San Bernardino County. Comparatively speaking, the Victorville housing market continues to post brisk sales.  In of July 2008, 39 single family homes and a total of 0 condos/townhomes sold, down 34 from last month.  My overall view of the market is still slipping in cost per square foot while the sales numbers are stabilizing a little.

Do You have a Real Estate Business plan? Do you have a plan that will make a bank Bankroll you? Lack of clarity in business and and business plan is next to the biggest reason a business fails. I believe the first is undercapitalization. However enjoy the following. Can you identity the following in your business: Management: Who are the principals of your business, What is your area of expertise. What makes you better than your competitors. Business Purpose: What business will you do or not do. Short Sales, Reo, Traditional? Buyers only? Sellers only?  Work with teachers who are transfering to the High Desert?  How will the business benefit the community?   If you do short sales you are helping to save a family from the fallout of financial ruin.  Is there a demand for this type of ent...

The Census Bureau has released a list of the 25 fastest growing large cityies in the nation which includes 5 in California. Which Cal city is growing the fastest? Quick, name the fastest growing city in California? San Jose? Riverside? San Diego? Nope, nope and nope. The state's fastest growing city over 100,000 population between July 1, 2006, and July 1, 2007, says the Census Bureau, was -- drumroll, please -- Victorville in the so-called "high desert" northeast of Los Angeles. In fact, it was the second fastest growing city in the nation at 9.5 percent. Read on to find out what the other 4 fastest growing cities in California are.

If you take a glass, and you fill it HALFway. Is the glass HALF EMPTY or HALF FULL??The REAL answer is NEITHER. It is COMPLETELY FULL!! The first half is filled with water that you can see physically, the second half is filled with what we CAN'T see, which is AIR.Even though that substance is right in front of our faces, we FAIL to realize it because we are focused at the substance.Likewise, in Real Estate, the is the most OPPORTUNE time to be in Real Estate. Whether you are in investing, loans, or selling properties, property management.. etc. This is the BEST time to be in Real Estate... WHY?Because all the people who wanted quick licks in Real Estate are GONE. All the chumps and all the ones who said this market is bad.. really bad are the ones who CAN'T find opportunities in the mom...
