Renter Resources For Emergency Services That Might Help With Rent

Financemyhome — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 09:02:42 +0000

In today’s economic environment, tenants are feeling the pain of a recession as well-or even more-than the rest of the population. This might mean their job loss or lesser wages. It is hard to pay the rent without an income. Therefore, as a landlord, your consider learning about and sharing resources with your tenants that provide emergency services in the Twin Cities. I have put together a few ideas on services/programs that might be able to help with food, utilities and even the rent. Besides the greater possibility and likelihood of getting your rent, you are being a friend and showing that you care. What goes around comes around.

I recently gave a Toastmasters speech on this topic. Key to answering the question is whether or not you have written goals in mind regarding what you want or intend to accomplish. Unless there are specific goals that require you to plan and live with a purpose and focus, life will just happen. Either way is fine as long as you know what to expect. Many people are frustrated when they expect something different. Mastering time and focusing on goals may more create a more fulfilling life. Soon, I will begin my annual project of goal setting. I intend to plan my year with measurable goals. I find I’m much happier when I’m focused on where I’m going. As such, I just came across this PDF called The Tower. I thought it was interesting and wanted to share it here. It is a short e-book about a man who is achieving his goals and living the dream. He’s living life on his terms and creating a legacy. He became more focused after he analyzed a video game he was playing. It is a pretty interesting book. Maybe one of your goals involves real estate-buying a new home or investment property. If this is a goal of yours, I can help. Give me a call and let me help you figure out how we can make real estate goals become your reality in 2012.

Short Sales Vs Foreclosures Vs Traditional sales

We need to understand that while the current economy is really a “Tale Of Two Cities” in that some people have no idea we are in a recession whereas others are in deep pain, the real estate market as a whole is being impacted by distressed properties. Based on the current backlog of homes, it may be this way for some time. That being said, why are short sales being embraced by everyone as the most economical way to move markets forward? When you look at a comparison of the loss incurred by the lender, you will see that losses are generally worse with a foreclosure. Larger losses via lower sales prices ultimately impacts everyone who is buying, selling or refinancing. I have a report and flyer I’d like to share. Both provide you with opinions and resources so you can draw your own conclusions. Solving the housing problem starts with understanding the problem as well as exploring viable solutions.
