Do you believe it? It’s already September!

Tue, 02 Sep 2008 14:19:40 -0500

Do you believe it? It's already September!

Wow! This year had gone by fast. To fast for me. This morning we woke up to frosts. We had our first frosts and it cold this morning. I had to turn on the heater to just get the chill out of the air. The current temperature right now is 42. The high for us today will be 56 to the low of 36 tonight. That's cold! Especially, here. The temperature drop down to the 30 last night. 32! It will be cold all this week for us here in Absarokee, Montana.

My husband told me, when he came home last night from "work" that it's "snowing" up on the top of mountain. Where at? Stillwater mine where he work at. Snowing! He told me it was very cold at work for him yesterday. That this morning he had to wear his coat. There was frost on my husband truck wind shield this morning.

Discover autumn weather for yourselves under the "Big Sky of Montana." Autumn on the rivers is a time of solitude and tranquility especially for fishing. Fishing! Yes, fishing. Autumn is the "time" of year for fishing in the Big Sky of Montana. Fishing spots are uncrowded! I mean uncrowded. The cooler water temperatures brings up the big one's from the rivers and lakes "trout" that come up from the depths of the water.

Big Sky of Montana is a rare and special place to come. The Big Sky, open land, majestic mountains, like the Absarokee-Beartooth and friendly people combine to make Montana the best place to visit even live. I would like to invite you to "explore" the Big Sky country and discover all the treasures we have to offer here.

I would like to give you a warm welcome for visiting me

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 15:35:21 -0500

I would like to give you a warm welcome for visiting me. Opening the door to a home of your own is a awesome feeling. What's important is having the knowledge and experience are the "keys" to having a successful real estate transactions, especially buying a home of your own. The one thing I came to believe is the keys to making the home buying process easier and more understandable is truly "planning" ahead of time.

Furthermore, planning will help you discover the home buying process. Making a purchase like a home loan will require the lender to runs a "credit report" on you. Keep in touch with your credit report. Check it out before you go to the lender to see, if there any thing on your credit report that need to be taken care of before hand. After that is done the next step would be how much can you afford? As you apply for a home loan, consider your "personal finances." Always consider your personal finances. Just as well as your credit report.

Let's look at how much you "earn" vs. how much you "owe" can determine how much a lender will allow you to borrow. First is - "Gross" monthly income. Them your "monthly debt." All of your monthly debt. Planning is a process. You will know if you can afford a home loan just by looking a monthly debt.

The two step in planning for a purchase of a home is checking your credit report and then your gross income to your debt. There are three consumer reporting databases that keep a record of you credit history. To dispute any information appearing on a credit report, you must submit in writing the following information: Your name - Address - Social Security Number - Then the item that is being disputed along with a brief explanation.

Do You Need A Real Person?

Wed, 13 Aug 2008 08:07:08 -0500

I'm "one" out of millions of Realtors® who would like to do business with you. Wow! That would be overwhelming to me too, choosing an Realtors® out of millions of them. I'll be honest, I choose to be real with you then giving you fancy words to read about. Fancy words doesn't express who I am with you. Being real, down to earth Realtor® does express who I am.

Fancy words doesn't show you my background with you. I can go into showing you all of my fancy education, but that doesn't mean any thing. Being "real" mean more, then the fancy education. Yes, I can go into dressing myself up with fancy educations, but that doesn't show you who I am. Fancy education doesn't help you to do what's needed to be done in the "real life" situation as to "selling" your property to "buying" a property. Being "real" is down to earth!

Overwhelming fancy words doesn't do it. Being an "real person" does. I do know how it feels. I do get overwhelm by it all too. Fancy words! I use to think, using fancy words would win you over, but it doesn't. Real life situation "needs" real human being working for you.

I would like to take this opportunity to talk a little about myself and my family. We're both country and we both love country living. We have a Border Collie name Bandit. My husband works as an Electrician at the Stillwater mine. We're residents of Absarokee, Montana. From Absarokee is about a 45 minute drive to Billings and Columbus is less than 15 minutes away. Then Red Lodge is 30 miles from Absarokee.
