  My daughters and I have a Sunday tradition of eating bagels. I usually awake early on Sunday morning to purchase "Hot Bagels" fresh from the oven.The girls love`em,which is what it`s all about! Not every bagel tatstes the same,nor is the bagel shop they`re purchased in.Every shop has it`s own flavor and crowd who go there. Bagel shops are a vast source for meeting people. It`s a true social network.   Today, majority of bagels are baked and that`s the problem.Often times the bagel tastes like dough and has no real flavor,which is a crime. When I was growing up bagel making was an art. It not only requires high-quality ingredients - flour, yeast, malt and water -- but making a good-tasting bagel, takes a baker with years of experience and excellent culinary skills. For hundreds of year... 12/28/2008

  Dealing with Short Sales is often a challenge. It`s not for the faint of heart. You have to have your wits around you and more important. One must know the area they`re dealing in.   We made an offer on a home in Cooper City which is a "Short Sale". The asking price was $315,000. The agent representing the seller, kept explaining to us the home was "Short Sale" approved. One major problem, the home would never appraise at $315,000 or anywhere close.   We placed our offer at $265,000 based on the last closed sales in the area. The agent kept explaining the lender would never agree. We explained to the agent the lender is way off target with the price and we can prove it to them by having an actual appraisal done.   Yesterday, the lender sent us an approval. They accepted our price of $... 12/10/2008

  One of my friends called me the other day from Active Rain and wanted to know why I disappeared from the face of the A/R Earth. I explained that i`ve been concentrating networking on Facebook.com and Youtube.com because I truly believe the market has shifted away  from blogging and more towards videoblogs.   With over 1600 posts on Active Rain. I`m not leaving. We`re able to generate a great amount of leads from A/R, am not going anywhere. I started blogging 4 years ago. At that time blogging was new.many people shunned the idea of blogging,most felt it was a passing fade. I`ll never forget the day Active Rain surpassed 10,000 members. Everyone knew Active Rain was going to become a real success story... I began to toy around with video blogging several months ago. I present them in t... 12/08/2008

    Since the Real Estate Bubble burst it`s been quite a challenge for many to survive. We`ve seen Realtors, and Real Estate offices  disappear.It`s not easy to adjust to change as many will tell you. It`s harder to revise a strategy that was working when the market was exploding but not suitable when the market went south! It`s impossible to predict what direction 2009 will lead most of us. There is a tremendous glut of homes that remain on the market,prices may continue to spiral downwards and it truth by all indications 2009 may not be any better than 2008! Can it get any worse?  We`ve expanded our rentals business, grew our REO division and have remained optimistic throughout! We`re in the midst of adding an insurance company and  looking to expand in Palm Beach County. There seems ... 11/30/2008

Bailing Out the little guy with foreclosure issues was how the $700 Billion Bailout began! Saving our country was supposed to offset people losing their prized possessions.The American Dream is lost and forgotten now! The original bailout is officially dead, and don`t believe for one second the Banks will come to the rescue. Apparently, helping wall street big wigs, AIG racketeers,saving ca2r manufacturer's are more important that saving the "Middle Class". For months the Calvary was coming. President Bush went out of his way to assure the public assistance was here. The $700 Billion Fiasco is all smoke and mirrors now! Nice to see  the administration was looking at a major expansion of the program into the markets that provide support for credit card debt, auto loans and student loans.... 11/12/2008

  Seems to me that this bailout should have been avoided. Our once great nation is in total chaos by the likes of the people whom we`ve placed in power! You don`t have to be a politician to realize who`s going to gain from this $700 billion debacle. On Capitol Hill  aka Shake Down Street the rich sure as heck seem to be getting richer, while the middle class becomes wiped out! We`re going the way of the dinosaurs. It`s hard to comprehend this entire mess,but it`s quite clear the folks we`ve trusted to be in charge have "sold us" out to every country except our own. Outsourcing this countries jobs, jacking up oil prices, an oil war,higher taxes, sub prime lenders,and Wall Street Rogue Traders. The seems to happen each decade, when will it stop? In the end the public suffers while "Shake... 09/29/2008

Apparently, there is light at the end of the Real Estate tunnel. With Uncle Sam stepping up to the plate bailing out the banks from it`s horrific "Sub-Prime Loans" it suddenly seems the Real Estate market will once again lead the way for a better 2009. The housing crisis can be traced to lax lending for home mortgages - especially sub-prime loans given to borrowers with tarnished credit - creating a false housing boom. Lenders and borrowers were counting on home prices to keep rocketing upwards. But when the Real Estate market went bust, home prices plummeted in many instances overnight!  Foreclosures spiked as people were left owing more on their mortgage than their home was worth. Rising mortgage rates also destroyed many homeowners who began to walk from their responsibilities.   Th... 09/19/2008

I do not think I can find a better word to describe what I have just experienced. A good client of mine calls me in much distress and asks to come see me which of course I agreed. My client (let's call her Mary) has relocated to another State about a year ago but her mom (let's call her Sally) still lives in Miami so Mary was in town for the long holiday when she was notified by Sally (who is 74) that she had arranged for her daughter to be in the meeting where she would apply for a reverse mortgage. Sally had mentioned to Mary a few times that she was interested in a reverse mortgage but Mary was never sold on the idea, for various reasons, but she was thankful that she was in town to participate in the meeting. It did not take Mary long to figure out there was something very wrong. Th... 09/04/2008

  Many families are in financial trouble because of a declining economy and an unstable real estate market. Numerous families are finding it increasingly difficult to pay for their mortgages and are in jeopardy of losing their homes to foreclosure*. Unfortunately, homeowners are not aware of the options that are available to them, or whom they can turn to for help. First and foremost, a homeowner who is about to be or already is in financial distress should contact their current lender(s) to find out if there are options available for their particular situation. In some cases, a loan modification can be arranged directly with the lender, at no cost. Regrettably, a significant number of home loans were poorly written; therefore, loan modification is not an option for a large portion of b... 08/18/2008

Good Friday everyone, With the amount of misinformation that is out there, (i.e. link to Washington Post article below), I have created a place where anyone can go to ask questions and have them answered by experienced professionals. I believe that a good amount of distressed home owners might not feel comfortable asking delicate, private financial questions to people they know and as a result, in in a lot of the cases, they do not ask anyone, and get themselves in deeper trouble. The message board is a venue where distressed homeowners can get good information while maintaining their privacy. Please visit the message board to answer questions, to ask questions, to post or blog about your experiences. www.shortsalesmessageboard.com *Washington Post article, dated July 20th 2008, stating... 08/15/2008

    I`ve dealt with a rash of Realtors who must be completely oblivious to the market and how often the lenders will delay a closing. It`s almost next to impossible to have a closing on time anymore, it`s not the buyers fault,nor is it the agents .Lenders are extremely cautious. Hence, "we`re in this together as professionals to close a transaction". Yet, as we approach a Monday closing we`ve dealt with an agent who seems to act like it`s everyone`s fault for the transaction closing "1 day late". We`ve received no less than 50 emails from this person accusing our buyer, myself and the mortgage broker for being incompetent. Yet, when giving the information they act aloof seem not to care and "want me to give the seller an explanation!".. Scary, beyond comprehension. Realtors who act like... 08/09/2008

 It`s really amazing how simple this business can sometimes be!Some people believe you have to be a Rocket Scientist to become a Realtor.Others, want to "break a deal, before the deal happens", still if you stick to the same formula over and over again, the actual day to day business of Real Estate can be exciting.Patricia Fernandez is a Single Mother who obtained her Real Estate licenses 2 years ago.She had no prior sales experience.Her intention was to become independent and capable of supporting her son Jalen.It`s never easy to be a Single Parent, it`s often quite difficult to balance a schedule.Yet,don`t kid yourself for one moment, this Mother has learned to balance her personal life with the skill of a Wall Street Trader.Often, she`ll work insane hours to insure she`s addressing ... 07/30/2008
