I Made a Difference, So can You.

 

That is what the little button sticker says that you got at the polls when you voted.

Did you vote Yesterday? I did and if you were like me you had a lot of extra reading and studying to do before going to the polls.

One of the problems with the elections is that people don't think.  The politicians didn't really tell us what they stood for they just hired that woman with the whiny voice, played dramatic music and displayed crummy photos on TV and told us how bad the other candidate was.  Many people didn't do any research they just listened to what their political party of choice was saying about how horrible the other political party candidates were.

I have heard so many half truths and out and out lies about candidates and programs this year but I know that many people believe the propaganda and the elections could have been won or lost because of it. There were so many attack ads and I grew tired of it all.  Well It all ended Yesterday and no matter who won we all did by not having to answer any more campign phone calls or listen to the campaign ads on the air waves any longer. 

There were people who did not vote.  It is like they were on a higher plane and could not be bothered showing up at the polls. They have a point.  One vote doesn't count and that is a good thing because you might not like the candidates I picked. If you didn't vote, remember that I did and so did a lot of people who are like me. 

God Bless You and pray for our troops to come home safe and for our Country leaders to make the right choices to help us get through this turmoil.

Historic places in Cincinnati Area

Cincinnati has a lot of history and historic places tucked away where you would least expect it. For example this wooden covered bridge.

  

I was out last week knocking on doors trying to meet folks whose homes are scheduled for a sheriff sale. I wanted to discuss helping them with their problem mortgages and try to help them avoid foreclosure.

As I turned off Hamilton Avenue in Mt Healthy I was faced with crossing the creek through this wooden covered bridge.  WOW...it was a sight for soar eyes, as they say. Of course I had my trusty Nikon D70 ready to shoot.

It is called Jediah Hill Covered Bridge and was listed on the National Registry for Historic Places on March 28, 1973.

The Jediah Hill Covered Bridge was constructed in 1850 over the western fork of the Mill Creek. It was named for it's builder and was renovated in 1956 and again in 1981.

I ended up meeting 3 people that afternoon in trouble and one of them didn't have a clue as to what was next for them. I scheduled to sit down with them next Tuesday afternoon to go over their options. As for the other two...they think they have things under control. After asking many questions I figured out that they are convinced they will have their lender do a loan modification for them and cancel the sheriff sale. Lets hope that works for them. We have too many foreclosures happening in today's market.

If you know anyone in danger of or facing a foreclosure have them get in contact with me. I have a solution that can avoid them going to foreclosure.

God Bless You and pray for all of our troops to come home safe and for our Country leaders to make the right choices to help us get through this turmoil.

Got work or just visiting?

 

Unemployment is Up in Cincinnati

The unemployment rate jumped to 10.5% this year compared to 6.9% for the national average. We are usually much better than this. According to our Cincinnati Trends data the number of Cincinnati, Ohio jobs has decreased by 19% since July 2007. That makes sense because companies tend to lay people off near the end of the year.

This is getting to become a problem across the nation...not just in Cincinnati. However we are most concerned with our city and only want to read about the other parts of the country.

Being self employed isn't easy either

Being a Realtor right now isn't easy either. No one can lay me off but my profession is self eliminating and only the strong will survive. Being self employed means that I look for work everyday. People who don't like to look for work should not consider self employment or real estate as a career.

It's who you know

I find some of my business from friends and neighbors and past clients. A lot comes from other sources like the UC class I have been teaching for the past 11 years. I am hoping to get more business as a result from my website and this blog. The more I do this the more chance I will have of attracting more business. It's a numbers game, however...this has to be backed by excellent service. I have to offer my clients either something no other Realtor can offer or do a much better job than any other Realtor will do. I need to let everyone I know, everyone I meet everyday know exactly what I do and ask if there is anything I can do to help them. I am genuinely sincere when I ask that question. "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

If there is please ask me.

God Bless You and pray for all of our troops to come home safe and for our Country leaders to make the right choices to help us get through this turmoil.
