Buying a house - before I give you the key, bend over just one more time…
2008-06-05 19:34:00 I knew it was too good to be true. We almost got through the whole thing without any trouble. Then my lawyer called this morning. You see I was waiting for something bad to happen and it was causing me a ton of stress and anxiety. Once the papers were all signed and money had changed hands I thought we were free and clear. Well I was wrong. It seems that the previous owners were great at paying bills. So great that they paid too far ahead on the property taxes for the year. So now I owe them that money before I can get the key. Now while this does not sound all that bad, I had already made arrangements through the bank to pay my taxes for me. So I do not have the extra $600 sitting around. I just gave them more than $18000 two days ago! Anyway, I do get paid tomorrow so I can cover it. We just might have to buy the first months groceries on credit cards now

East Bend to Rural Hall, North Carolina
2008-05-08 04:21:00 Angie, whom we met the day before, arrived just has we finished packing up camp. She was right on time and ready with her horse to ride with Bill. Angie and her father brought us some stew the previous evening during the truck pull event. Brenda and Bill visited with them, and talked over the route Brenda had planned. Bill always welcomes company when he rides; having someone to talk to helps pass the time. Brenda drove up ahead to a place called O-Henry's Restaurant. We where hungry so we got some breakfast while waiting for Bill. We met the owner, Ms. Bowman, and she told us a bit about her place (watch the video). Brenda escorted the pair across the Yadkin River, as there was “no escape route” as Bill would say. We make a second stop at Tobaccoville before making our final stop at Beaver Creek Farm in Rural Hall. Owner Ed Wall visited with us and later that evening we met some of his family. Angie had dinner with Brenda, Bill and I later that night at the seafood ...

Yadkinville to East Bend, North Carolina
2008-05-05 20:14:00 We headed out of Yadkinville later then we usually do. Bill needed to reset Black's front shoes and replace a piece of Drilltek. Bill had used cheap nails by mistake while he was giving a shoeing lesson. “The inferior nails where sheering off,” he said, “so I put on some Delta nails.” I was able to use this extra time to write a post and Brenda got some clothes washed. The previous day had been a bit long; the names of roads where different in the map then those posted on signs. Brenda and I ended up driving all over trying to figure it out. As soon as we found a gas station we picked up a local county map. After leaving Yadkinville we traveled the route that Brenda has mapped out; down Old US-421 then up Falcon Rd. Brenda passed Mt. Bethel Church road about a quarter of a mile as it wasn't marked. We quickly realized the mistake and ended up stopping at a little café called Burnette's Place. It was about lunch time so we decided to go in. Th...

Obama Making A 10 PM Visit To South Bend
2008-04-08 13:00:00 Barack Obama will visit South Bend’s Washington High School late Wednesday evening. Hillary Clinton had earlier been denied a visit to the school, reports the South Bend Tribune. Presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama will make a late-night appearance Wednesday at the same South Bend high school where his Democratic primary opponent, Sen. Hillary Clinton, was denied an appearance nearly two weeks ago. The Illinois Democrat is expected to take to the stage around 10 p.m. Wednesday, his campaign confirmed tonight. It will be the first stop on a three-day tour of Indiana ahead of the state’s May 6 primary election. Doors open at 8 p.m. School officials say the appearance isn’t during school hours, as Clinton’s would have been, and therefore is not a disruption to classes. Washington High School students, faculty and staff members are on spring break this week. Post from: Christopher Hedges Obama Making A 10 PM Visit To South Bend

Bend Foreclosures Spike in First Quarter
2008-04-03 21:16:00 From the Bend Bulletin: A pair of local officials ? one a banker, another a credit counselor ? were skeptical Wednesday about the effects that Senate legislation could have on homeowners facing foreclosure in Central Oregon, saying the money won?t address the region?s problems and will likely go to other states first.Benefits of the national legislation ? which would include $100 million to expand counseling services for homeowners at risk of defaulting on their loans ? would trickle slowly to Oregon, a state that hasn?t been hit as hard by foreclosures as Arizona, California and Florida, predicted Bob Mullins, a money management volunteer for Bend-based Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Mid-Oregon.The number of mortgages entering the early stages of foreclosure during the first three months of 2008 nearly tripled the number in the same period last year, according to the Deschutes County Clerk?s Office.This year, the county is on pace to more than double mortgage default totals ...
Bend Real Estate Continues Freefall
2008-04-01 16:35:00 From the Bend Bulletin:Home sales in Bend are down, but several local residential property management companies say business is up.More renters are in the market, and there are more houses to choose from, said Regan Scott, principal broker of Deschutes Property Management in Bend. That means falling rents for single-family homes and move-in incentives in some cases, Scott said.?We?re having a good year and expecting it to be a phenomenal summer,? said Scott, who?s adding staff.Scott?s firm manages roughly 800 housing units, an increase of more than 100 units compared with the same time last year, he said.Scott said the influx of rental homes is primarily due to a soft housing market that is forcing investors who purchased homes for a quick profit to rent them in order not to lose them. Scott said many of the homeowners who hired his company never intended to rent their properties.?This is unique in our market because this hasn?t happened in the past,? Scott said. ?We?re dealing with...
Bend Bulletin: It's Only News If We Report It
2008-03-29 02:30:00 The 'other' newspaper in Bend is having a field day with the Bulletin's coverage of the real estate market.From The Source Weekly in Bend:When Fannie and Freddie make a move, the real estate industry takes notice. But when they tightened the rules for mortgages in Deschutes County, our local daily didn?t bat an eyelash.Fannie and Freddie are Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FHLMC), two government-sponsored enterprises that insure most of the home mortgage loans in this country. Home buyers typically need mortgage insurance if they can?t make a down payment of 20% or more.In the wake of the popping of the real estate bubble, Fannie and Freddie have flagged portions of three Oregon counties ? Deschutes, Lane and Jackson ? as high-risk and imposed tighter restrictions on the types of mortgages they?ll guarantee there. The designation will make it harder for buyers ? especially first-timers and others who don?t have much money for a down payment ? to get mortgages and could have th...

How To Bend A Man To Your Will
2008-03-13 10:53:00 Why is it that some women find it so hard to woo a man, while others can do it effortlessly? It's because the women who have little success try too hard. Men like to chase, they like to win battles, if you portray an image of being ready and open for them then they are not as interested. Women who are able to seduce men at will and secure their hearts do so using subtle acts of communication that let him know subconsciously what you want so that his conscious mind does not get scared and rebel.

It's All About Inventory
2008-03-04 00:44:00 From the Bend Bulletin:Central Oregon homes sales are coming off of one of their worst winters in a decade, and the tenor of the industry?s sales incentives is changing.Gone are the offers of free cars and Pottery Barn gift certificates.In their place: cold, hard cash.At Renaissance Homes, President Randy Sebastian is offering $12,000 to $14,000 to buy down the interest rates on homebuyers? loans in his Bend subdivisions. At last week?s level, that amounted to an offer of 4.65 percent interest for the first 10 years ? almost three-quarters of a percent below similar loans in the open market.It?s all about inventory reduction and, so far, price cuts have not done the trick, Sebastian said.Renaissance has shaved anywhere from 11 percent to 20 percent off the list prices of its unsold homes, cutting anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 per home in south Bend?s Renaissance Ridge and west Bend?s Shevlin Park, Sebastian said.That helped to shrink the Lake Oswego-based builder?s local invento...
More Bend Layoffs Could Occur
2008-02-27 20:41:00 From the Bend Bulletin:The top official at Central Oregon?s division of Knife River Corp. said Tuesday that the excavation company has laid off 15 percent of its work force since November and that more staff cuts could occur.The layoffs, which amount to 70 to 75 of Knife River?s 465 jobs, are all due to market conditions, primarily a slowdown in housing construction, said Hap Taylor, the president of Knife River, which is a subsidiary of Bismarck, N.D.-based MDU Resources Group Inc.The company sent a letter to its employees last week saying more cuts were possible.?There might be further layoffs,? Taylor said. ?It?s all economy-related and has been happening pretty much everywhere we have a business. Every company is going through the same problems.?Taylor is the former owner of Hap Taylor & Sons Inc., which was bought by Knife River in 1998.Knife River?s projects have included work on two massive residential subdivisions ?

Reality Still Hasn't Hit Bend Builders
2008-02-27 00:34:00 From the Bend Bulletin:Central Oregon?s real estate market has cooled, but it won?t likely reach the depths of 1986, according to one longtime builder who says a diverse approach will steer his company through the slowdown.That?s when the city of Redmond issued only a handful of commercial and residential building permits throughout the entire year, according to the city?s building department.?It was dead, very dead,? said Steve Buettner, president of SunWest Builders Development LLC.This could be the year that some of the region?s smaller subcontractors ? who can?t find enough business ? go out of business, he said.?Some dropoff is OK,? he said. ?In the boom times, everyone jumps into it, including some of those who shouldn?t. Those (lower-quality builders) will be the first ones to go.?SunWest?s largest residential projects are in Prineville and Madras, where sales have not met expectations, Buettner said.At IronHorse, a 2,900-home development in Prineville that will take 15 to 20...
