Busier than a One Armed Man in a Wall Paper Hanging Contest
I seem to once again slip from my blogging routine. Gosh, I know how important a good blog strategy it to any business in this day and age. I feel like I have taken a step backwards in time, by ignoring my trusted and faithful blog….
So let me just catch up by sharing that life continues to march forward on so many different levels. I don’t want to consume this with negative news, but I would like to share, because I am often asked about my wife, Sherri. She has been on hospice care for the last several months, with her cancer. Last month she took a serious nose dive for 2 to 3 weeks and I really thought we were at the end. Then, praise God, once again, she literally just snapped out of the spiral and brought herself up to a comfortable level once again. Unfortunately, it just isn’t as high a level as the one she left. I am sure it is only a matter of time, but that’s OK, because like all of us…it is only a matter of time. The Good News is she KNOWS exactly where she is headed because "to be absent from the body is to be with the Lord!"
On a completely different note, my business has taken off like a rocket. I have built my team with the assistance of a REALTOR® partner to the point where we have hired a full time buyers agent and two full time administrative assistants. In addition, I am keeping a General Contractor and his sidekick busy with over 80% of their work. So, I can’t say with any real confidence that I am making any money, but I sure am helping the local economy by spreading a lot of it around!
I am in the process of writing a series of articles on my activities in the REO world, answering questions like:
And So Much More to Come in the next couple of weeks.
So, I f you are either an Investor, first time home buyer, move-up buyer or even a REALTOR® interested in finding out a little bit about the current REO Market in Hemet, CA and the surrounding South West Riverside County in the Inland Empire region of Southern California, please come back and visit this blog on a regular basis for answers to these and more questions.
Not only am I planning on answering the many questions about the REO industry, I plan on giving very specific market condition updates and highlights of some really great properties that I will track as soon as they come on the market following up with updates once they close escrow...so you'll see first hand how this diverse market is working.
Blessing to all who read this,

John, I am so glad that your wife is still with you for now.Your wife is in my prayers.
I am glad you found your cup of tea, cause REO's certainly ain't mine! :)
John, your news is welcome. I understand the ups and downs you are going through with Sherri. Make the best of what you have.
On another note, I am looking forward to your upcoming REO posts and have subscribed.
John - it's nice to see you back. I did not know about your wife and will remember her (and you in my prayers). At least she has the assurance of her salvation. I'm glad business is good for you and that you are so busy with it. I'm sure being busy keeps the negative thoughts out of sight/mind.
John, thanks for the update, send Sherri our love. Glad your business is going well, you're hiring staff and that is excellent. thanks for checking in and letting us know what is going on. (( (hugs)))
John nice to see you back around my friend. Sorry to hear about your wife....I did not realize this. Great to know your business is flourishing.
- Thanks for the kind words. Yes, my wife has been sick for some time now. A very slow and nasty disease. We're just both grateful for every gay we have together. And thanks for the well wishes for the business - I am definately busy...
Now Have a Blessed Day,
John

Glad to see you are still keeping an eye out for me. Sherri appreciates your prayers and well wished...as do I. And yes, it is nice to be able to build a business up with quality staff to help cover the slack as I need to attend to my personal affairs.
Thanks for the hugs and right back at ya!
Now Have a Blessed Day,
John

Vickie, Thanks first for stopping in and subscribing to my blog. I hope to make it a positive experience for you. I also appreciate the well wishes for my life - my wife is my entire life and I do everything I can for her - so thanks again for the wishes.
As far as the information I will be sharing, I do hope you will find it valuable - if you look through my blog, you'll see I have several hundred published articles on a number of different real estate related topics that many have found useful for the topics they have covered.
Blessing,
John

Katerina,.
Always a pleasure to hear from you, my friends in Florida. It is people like you that keep me coming back. It is such a blessing to know that you, and good people like you, are praying for my wife and me. I am convinced that it is nothing more than prayer that has maintained us thus far and the reason why we are being Blessed today, with my work.
As far as the differance between my new found niche of REO properties and the luxury estates that you sell...well, I just don't understand why you wouldn't want to get knee deep in my world!!! (Ha Ha - just kidding)
Now Have a Blessed Day,
John
John,
You make me want to come out to Hemet and see how it's done.
Hello John,
That is good news. I am glad to know that you have perfected the REO business in your area. I am working hard(until I learn to work smart) everyday on getting to that level. I realize it is not an option to work REO's if I want to remain in the Real Estate industry.
Mush success!!!
