Hello Bloggers. Gosh, I have a bunch of topics to discuss. No time this evening but here’s a quick sneak preview of what’s on my mind:<\/p>\n

1) Today’s above the fold front page headliner in today’s Herald:
“DIG DEEP: New Homes Top $500,000K<\/a>“<\/span> (emphasis Herald).<\/p>\n

2) This evening in south Everett I had the unique pleasure of discussing housing with Banner Banks’ Chairman, President & CEO (including mingling with Bank Directors & VP’s.) It was quite a fun discussion. Oh, and their stock hit a 52 week high today. Full disclosure: Our company, Legacy Escrow Service, Inc., trust account is with Banner Bank but I hold no stock in Banner Bank.<\/p>\n

My topic is: “Suits vs. a guy in shorts (me): Puget Sound Real Estate is poised for more growth.”<\/span><\/p>\n

3) “Appraisers sound off & it’s not pretty.”<\/span><\/p>\n

4) Artificial Appreciation Revisited & Confirmed: Closing cost contributions offset by seller price escalation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

5) Affiliated Business Relationships in Real Estate: it’s costing consumers a bundle.<\/span><\/p>\n

6) Title Insurance: Why one state banned Title Companies, issues its own state backed insurance for its citizens who are taking the savings to the bank.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Any one of these topics you would like me to address sooner than later? Or, you can tell me, “I don’t give a rip.”<\/p>\n

I’m game for other topic suggestions on insider questions anyone may have. Both selling or purchasing for that matter.<\/p>\n

Please read the rules<\/a> before posting a comment.<\/div>\n
