Here is a recent report from the National Association of REALTORS.]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/hows-the-market/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/do-statistics-tell-the-whole-story/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=do-statistics-tell-the-whole-story http://focus.lindamiller.com/do-statistics-tell-the-whole-story/#comments Sat, 26 Mar 2011 23:39:31 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=303 All the statistics may tell a story, but what is really happening in the real estate marketplace? It was true that every person involved in real estate in 2006 knew the "upswing" couldn't last (and yes, there were other obvious signs that the economy would topple). Now we look for the subtle signs that there could be more activity. Here's what I know.]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/do-statistics-tell-the-whole-story/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/good-news-for-investor-loans/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=good-news-for-investor-loans http://focus.lindamiller.com/good-news-for-investor-loans/#comments Sat, 19 Mar 2011 19:48:49 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=298 Today I received good news from a loan officer whom I have referred many clients to in the past. Julie Johnston (218-0919) at Cherry Creek Mortgage let me know that loans for investors have, in the past, been limited to four properties-- but now has been extended to ten! ]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/good-news-for-investor-loans/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/code-of-ethics-and-poster-contest/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=code-of-ethics-and-poster-contest http://focus.lindamiller.com/code-of-ethics-and-poster-contest/#comments Mon, 07 Jun 2010 22:00:12 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=217 Businesses have goals. Industries have standards. Societies have expectations. The meeting of the minds becomes more important than ever as our world becomes smaller. Technology, communications, and economies are changing at a rapid pace. It is apparent that a standard of conduct is necessary for all businesses to function. Guidelines for ethical actions are important for all enterprise. ]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/code-of-ethics-and-poster-contest/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/living-a-passionate-life/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=living-a-passionate-life http://focus.lindamiller.com/living-a-passionate-life/#comments Wed, 24 Feb 2010 19:49:15 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=181 I have finally realized that this identifies me. Why is it that we must go through so much of our life to find who we are? Recognizing personal strengths, and weaknesses, gives power to my goals. As president of our Spokane Association of Realtors I believe in a group of 1800 people who are caring, honest and ambitious in their endeavors. As their leader my desire is to direct their ambition so that it will grant all of us long term benefits. After much thought I came to the conclusion that we needed a focus of community service.]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/living-a-passionate-life/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/houselogic/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=houselogic http://focus.lindamiller.com/houselogic/#comments Tue, 22 Dec 2009 16:00:55 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=146 There is good news for home owners.

What's the greatest part of the trip? Coming home. We cherish home. Our heart and love is where we nest. With the extension of the $8000 tax credit, now is an opportunity like never before for more people to have their "nest".]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/tax-credit-extension/feed/ 0 http://focus.lindamiller.com/realtor-buzz/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=realtor-buzz http://focus.lindamiller.com/realtor-buzz/#comments Fri, 23 Oct 2009 23:58:03 +0000 Linda Miller http://focus.lindamiller.com/?p=133 We're all playing the guessing game as to whether or not the $8000 tax credit will be renewed. There are those that have made the conclusion that it's almost certain - after all, hasn't it helped some buyers make the decision to move forward with their purchase of a new home? Now we are hearing about some fraud of the system. What will people try next?]]> http://focus.lindamiller.com/realtor-buzz/feed/ 0
