Are you in sales to make a buck or make a difference?

I've been reading High Trust Selling by Todd Duncan, and he poses this question in one of the chapters.  I had to stop and ponder a minute, okay, actually for a few days.  Not because I didn't know why I'm in real estate but why real estate altogether. 

There are a lot of other ways to make a buck, and if you're not certain why you're in real estate, it's a pretty good question to consider.

Without a doubt if you don't know the difference, your clients do, or they'll figure it out in short order.  So after a few days of deep thought I came to a conclusion.  There's a reason I work the long hours, spend time away from the family, and take a pass on any other job opportunity that comes my way.

I like helping people make sound financial decisions, either making a smart investment, or in the current market, and more often than not, limiting their losses.

It was great to take some time and reexamine what the driving force is behind what I do.  It gave me a new found energy to press on.

Writing multiple offers on short sales in Idaho, what the law states

Writing multiple offers on short sales in Idaho, what the law states.

Idaho short sales - Judge and gavelDistressed properties have become such a large part of our market in Boise, Idaho that you almost can't turn around without bumping into a short sale or foreclosure. With that comes a whole new list difficulties in how to deal with them ethically and legally.

It seems to have become a standard practice of Idaho short sale buyers to put in multiple offers on short sale properties and close on the one that gets approved the fastest. A proverbial throwing at the wall to see what sticks if you will. It sounds good in theory and knowing how long a short sale can take to complete, I can see why buyers of Idaho short sales resort to this.

The question becomes, is it legal to do so? The answer is yes, so long as you disclose it to the seller. Many buyer's agents are running around with a short sale addendum that gives them a false sense that it allows them to do this without disclosing it and the fact is they could be setting you up to be liable in doing so.

Here's why: In Idaho, if your agent is aware that you do not intend to perform on each short sale contract, according to the definition of adverse material fact, you are required to disclose it to the seller.

Adverse material fact, what's that?

"Adverse material fact is a fact that would significantly affect the desirability or value of the property to a reasonable person or which establishes a reasonable belief that a party to the transaction is not able to or does not intend to complete that party's obligation under a real estate contract."

It's a better idea to disclose it up front than risk legal recourse for something you might not have even been aware you were doing. The laws regarding Idaho short sales are changing almost as quickly as lending standards, it's important to protect yourself.

It's time to start tracking Santa!

Santa flying over treesI like to show this one to my kids every year. It's time to track Santa on his Christmas delivery route. In what has been a tradition for more than 50 years NORAD tracks Santa on his nighttime journey from the North Pole.

Watch Santa make his way around the globe by clicking here.

If you don't know the history behind NORAD tracking his flight you should have a read. It seems it all started over a misprint in a Sears Roebuck & Co. advertisement prompting kids to call a number to talk with Santa.

They have been tracking Santa's Christmas Eve flight since 1955.
