First-time home buyers have lots of hurdles to climb during the transaction that is considered the most expensive purchase you will ever make.  I'm talking about buying your first home.  The hurdles, though, can be overcome relatively easily by having a trained professional on your side and by knowing what's in store.  To that end, here is Step 2 of Nine Steps to Buying a Home.  It is my hope that you will find valuable information in this series that will help you not only negotiate the real estate sea on which you currently find yourself but also that you will be clearer about what to expect from here.Step 2:  Be Protected! Know Your Rights!Did you know that there are laws against housing discrimination?  Let me explain...It is against the law to say that you cannot buy a property in ...

Making the most of...Planning We’ve all heard the expression, probably on multiple occasions… “When you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Well, this is absolutely true, in everything from business to our personal lives.  Primarily, it breaks down to this: if you don’t set goals and create a concrete way to achieve them, you’ll stay exactly where you are. In business, we need to plan things like: How far we want to go in our careers; Promotions we wish to achieve; Career moves. In our personal lives, we need to plan things like: Our living situation and changes we’d like to make to it; Type of transportation we use and changes to that; Size of our family. Of course, there are many more things we can plan such as vacations, retirement, summer camps, and more but these are just a few of the...

I must admit I have been jealous of my friends and collegues who been walking around with their Iphone these last couple of years. As i sit and watch them scroll through multiple applications at a time. I was took satisfaction that Verizon has some of the best service that American cell phone companies offer, and that satisfaction grew a little more today with some news of the Iphone "death grip" eath Grip? what is this according to reports from the new iphone users you lose all signal if you hold it in your left hand. Reports are coming out it is not the issue of holding it your left hand but iphone signal strength coding has been messed up, or poor for some time.     DCNN Money reported.. The iPhone 4 "grip of death" signal-strength problem stems from a bug that has been with Apple's ...
