The Washington State Realtors® have put together a video about the First Time Home Buyer $8000. Tax Credit that is worthy on anyone's website or blog, regardless of the state you practice real estate in. I've included the video on my blog, but thought I would recommend the video to other real estate bloggers as well. The video is simple to the point and well done. Here it is:

The Parade of Homes is a yearly event whereby the region's builders, subcontractors, and construction vendors showcase their work.

In terms of real estate, the Parade of Homes is a great opportunity for real estate agents to show their listings. Many Parade of Homes viewers come from out of town to view the best that Tri Cities has to offer, often times the catalyst for relocation to the Tri City Washington area. As REALTORS® providing…

Colleen's sister lives in North Richland, so we spend a considerable amount of time walking and biking many of the North Richland neighborhoods. We've grown to appreciate the atmosphere in North Richland. Also, the bike and walking paths along the Columbia River are second to none.

If you are relocating to North Richland Washington to work in one of the many employment opportunities available in the Tri…

We've listed what may be the best home in Country Ridge, Richland Washington. Why? The yard and the adjoining acres of community property providing a 'several acres' feel of this property. If considering a Country Ridge home purchase, consider this home:

Ok, not sure if 1 minute of TV exposure qualifies for 'celebrity' status, but it sure does in the Lane household. Colleen was called this week for an interview aired on our local KEPRTV news channel. We had 15 minutes to get ready, as the interviewer was on the way to our home! I now know we can clean and pick up a house in 15 minutes! Colleen, nervous as all heck, composed herself perfectly. She's like that. The interview lasted about 30 minutes, but only 1 minute was used. If you care to watch Colleen's 1 minute of fame, fast forward the video to where there is 3 minutes, 50 seconds remaining:

The last time Colleen was on TV was when we were dating 24 years ago. When I saw her on "Let's Make A Deal" I thought she was incredibly pretty. Time…

Sometimes I feel like I'm wandering in the desert as I frequent many online circles, but cannot say any one place can be called home. I'm envious of the folks that have 'camped out' at one online location and have established roots. However, there are advantages to getting around.

I've since bought the audio version and very pleased with the purchase.

Essentially, what I walk away with from the book are principles in time management (among many, many other things). The book's purpose is to work less and earn more, however, I see the book as means of simply being more productive. The single greatest…
