Blogs have moved - please read below for more information
August 16th, 2009 11:06 AM

I have been posting my articles on Examiner.com for about a month now.  In addition to the types of blogs I used to post here, I have recently posted an article about short sales, "the end of your problems, or just the beginning. I've also recently posted articles about loan modifications.  Why aren't they getting done, and some tips to help you, and potentially avoid foreclosure.  Examiner.com is a site where you can find out all you want to know about any of approximately 2200 cities across the country.  They are selecting "experts" in many areas to write about their area of expertise.

I will be posting all my articles on Examiner.com going forward, so please click here for access to my page. 

And for those of you who have been following my blogs here, be assured that I will continue to post updates to market news and how it is affecting the mortgage industry and housing in general on Examiner.com.

Upcoming articles will include:

1.  Green housing in Oregon, including interviews with contractors, photos and news about recent projects, solar installations, etc.

2.  Where is Portland ranked among the top 10, 20, 100 cities, and why?  Are we known for our wineries?  our micro-breweries? our singles scene?  How are these rankings affecting our popularity for those re-locating, and what are those re-locating here doing to our housing market?

3.  Short sales versus Foreclosure or Deed in Lieu of Foreclosure?  What are the pitfalls to avoid?  How do you go about it?  Are there any benefits to these solutions?

4.  Sellers get creative - is a lease option to purchase a good idea for you as a seller or buyer?  How does a lease option work.  What are the benefits?  How can this go wrong?

If any of the above topics sounds like information you would like to read, please go to my Examiner.com site and sign up as a subscriber, so you will be notified when articles are posted. 

Thank you so much for your patience and all your kind comments in the past.
