Doesn't mean they didn't make a few changes.

So here is a simple scenario. You submit an offer, they want to change the purchase price, so instead of chicken-scratching all over the purchase and sale, they submit it on a counteroffer form, and send it ALL over signed, you sign the one line on the counter offer form if you agree... BUT

Who says its that simple.

YOU need to read through the ENTIRE contract again and make sure they haven't made a few other changes as well. In my case it was the title company, no big deal. Obviously you would have to initial next to the changes they have made for the contract to reactivate, but that doesn't mean that they are not there. As you thumb through the contract you may be surprised at a few changes that they have made, but not addressed on the counteroffer form.

READ YOUR ENTIRE CONTRACT.

Supercross brings Seattle to LIFE.

Let Walk Score help you decide.

Here's how it works "Walk Score helps people find walkable places to live. Walk Score calculates the walkability of an address by locating nearby stores, restaurants, schools, parks, etc. Walk Score measures how easy it is to live a car-lite lifestyle-not how pretty the area is for walking."

Neighborhoods are scored by their walkability. I first heard about this site at Seattles REbar camp, and decided to look into it. Consumers use this site to as a means to determine how safe a neighborhood is. How well known is this site? I am not sure, but hey it is another tool to use. I think its very neat.

Lakeland Village, my neighborhood, recieved a 54/100. Not bad, we are fairly rural so i understand that.

Have a great "Good Friday!"

As the majority of the economyis strapped financially, business owners large and small are doing everything they can to save a dollar as well. Its a true telling of the times when you can walk into Costco in the middle of the week and push your cart right up to the register to check out.

Luckily, here in Washington we have a few places still in demand for employment.

Locally in Mason and Kitsap County, we have a few major job hubs that are ALWAYS hiring. A huge local employer in Bremerton Washington is the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. They are hiring immediately and even pay for schooling.

(Battle Ships docked at PSNS)

"Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility(PSNS & IMF) is focused on providing customers with quality, timely and cost efficient maintenance, modernization, and technical and logistics support. PSNS & IMF has sites in Bremerton, Bangor, Everett, San Diego, Boston, Japan and wherever its workers go to fix ships. The Bremerton site is comprised of property bordered on the south by Sinclair Inlet, on the west by Naval Base Kitsap Homeport, and on the north and east perimeters by the City of Bremerton. The Bremerton site is the Pacific Northwest's largest Naval shore facility and one of Washington State's largest industrial installations. The Bangor site is the largest command at Naval Base Kitsap, Bangor, near Silverdale, Washington. "

Who is hiring in your area? I love hearing about companies that are still hiring, and the jobs that are still in major demand, even in these tough times.

Helps keep the stress away.

Ive found this to be true. I significantly notice that things tend to go a lot smoother if I take just a few minutes in the morning of being active on the web makes me feel a lot better. I take a few minutes to read some posts, and I generally carry that knowledge throughout the day, discussing topics that have appeared on here in the office.

Activerain has turned into such a pleasure, as a resource, and as a networking tool.

Enjoy your wordless Wednesday!

Have a great wednesday and enjoy the sunshine!
