I cannot go into detail regarding financial numbers as they are to embarrassing (LOL). I’m hoping at the very least to be able to take the family out for one dinner :)

I never really knew what I wanted to do with the domain, build a directory, free WP website provider, free content provider and I still don’t really know, so I decided to dispose of the site.

From time to time I’ll guest post about our local market ( backlinks you know ). Come to think of it, market news never really got implemented. All the content will remain and the blog will still be updated with great real estate related content, so nothing will change. If anything the site will improve in content and design.

Saying all that, I may wake up tomorrow and decide just to keep the site! I did have a great plan for a directory, however it’s just way to time consuming.

The reason this is mainly done is, because they have a track record of success with that particular loan consultant.

While most people associated in the mortgage industry are honest and have high integrity values, that is not always the case. According to the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, there were 52,868 reports for mortgage fraud in 2007. Can you say WTH!

The most common fraud was misrepresentation of income or assets. Come one people, if you have to lie to get a loan, then you shouldn’t be purchasing the home to being with!

Which is great news, since Dallas is where I live and work. :)

According to a new U.S. Census Bureau report, DFW (Dallas-Fort Worth Metorplex) drew in more people than any other metropolitan area in 2007. Our population increased by whopping 162,250 people, between July 1, 2006, and July 1, 2007. Best of all home prices have increased by a steady 17% over the last five years.
