I found this very interesting.  The biggest issue for REALTORS is the difficulties encountered in getting financing for their clients.  The bulk of my new business comes from clients that came to me because their REALTOR sent them to an "in-house" mortgage person or a "to big to fail bank" that couldn't get them approved due to a lack of knowledge or lack of motivation on the lenders part.

America the brave...

“The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission.” 
~John Fitzgerald Kennedy


There are only two works to describe the meaning of Memorial Day...Thank You! 
This holiday was created to honor those who died while serving their country, our country. It is not about politics, bbq's, or weekend sales. It is about the men and women that protect our country. 

So this Memorial Day, enjoy the time with your family and friends, but remember to take a moment and thank all that have served and are still serving in our military for all that they do.

The Unknown Soldier

You need not ever know my name
This unknown soldier seeks no fame
I'm here to bring out thought from you
May your heart see more then your view
America, we marched with pride
We gave our life, for you we died

How well we knew the time might come
When life could sound that final drum
Please think of us as life moves on
We tried so hard till that last dawn
Do let our spirit fill the land
Pass treasured freedom, hand to hand
God blessed this country with such love
Hold in your heart, abundance of
and when you stand before my grave
Think not of one, but all who gave.
                                     ~ Roger J. Robicheau

Anyone is free to pay their respects to those who made the greatest possible sacrifice so that the rest of us can continue to do what we enjoy doing.  The traditional time to visit cemeteries or war memorials is at 3PM local time on Memorial Day, which is Monday. U.S. flags will be flown at half-mast until noon. According to the US Government’s website, you can also “Pay tribute to the U.S. men and women who died during military service by observing a minute of silence at 3:00 PM, local time.”

Thank you for our freedom, our rights, and for your bravery!
