Posts Just For You- This Week at ActiveRain June 26 to July 2, 2022  Every day there is something to learn here at ActiveRain.  With this series, I try to highlight posts that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or the other professions that I never knew, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice! June 26: Lauren Williams Wait, Are You Sure???Bet you can relate to this! I know I can.

During this month we visited many cities across the nation to see the local American flags proudly displayed.  We have learned from each other, we have honored our brave, and we have born witness to each sorrow.  Loved ones that have been lost have had their memory revitalized and perhaps a little healing along the way.  As we end our month of Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint-Idaho and Endre Barath, Jr. challenge to celebrate  ole glory, I wanted to share a favorite video of mine presented by Evangelo Morris.  If Ole glory could talk what words would we hear? May Ole Glory stand watch over you and yours and remind us how lucky we are.

If you've just lost a family member and want to know the next step to take, here are seven reasons finding a new place to call home is beneficial.1. New Environment, New OpportunitiesIt's no secret that humans desire novel experiences.

This is an excellent post with great information. Thanks for sharing it.Have a super fantastic week!Joe Jackson, Realtor-KWCP Setbacks - How to move on and get back on track. Setbacks are a fact of life. Without a doubt, setbacks can have dramatic negative effects of all of us if we all allow them to.  Despite our best intentions and well-laid-plans, life doesn’t always go according to our hopes and expectations. We all experience setbacks, both small and large and sometimes we are overwhelmed with frustration. Sometimes it  feels hopeless and stressful and then the self doubts start to creep in.  Always remember there is always hope, and it starts with our mindset and how we chose to view life’s inevitable setbacks. The very first thing to do is to remember you are human. As much as yo...

The Average Homeowner Gained 64K in Equity over the Past Year If you own a home, your net worth likely just got a big boost thanks to rising home equity. Equity is the current value of your home minus what you owe on the loan. And today, based on recent home price appreciation, you're building that equity far faster than you may expect here's how it works.Because there's an ongoing imbalance between the number of homes available for sale and the number of buyers looking to make a purchase, home prices are on the rise. That means your home is worth more in todays market because its in high demand. As Patrick Dodd, President and CEO of CoreLogic, explains:Price growth is the key ingredient for the creation of home equity wealth. . . . This has led to the largest one-year gain in average h...

Sandpoint Realty 'Friday Flag' this week shows off one of the long time original businesses of Sandpoint Idaho.  Melody Muffler.My first time stepping into Melody Muffler I was questioning whether my mechanic had sent there in earnest, or was just trying to get me out of his shop so he did not need deal with the muffler problem.  Screws, bolts, in small boxes, unlabeled, in no apparent order.  Scrap metal everywhere, leaning up against walls.   Yet after looking at my vehicle Mike walked directly inside, to a certain wall, pulled out a certain flange, from one of those unlabeled boxes, looked at it closely and set it on a semi cluttered work bench.  Told me he would give me a call when done.  True to his word in a couple of hours he called explaining the salt had rusted out the stock pi...

Owning a home is going to be one of the largest if not the largest investment that you will make during your lifetime. The home should be viewed as an investment that you want to maintain the value and get the best return possible. Some homeowners choose to  allow their home to go into disarray and then fix it up before selling.  No matter what you choose to do as the current homeowner, you do not want your home to be viewed as a fixer-upper as this will not garner large initial offers from buyers. Finding the right offer can lead a homeowner to sell as they could not have imagined such a high offer. Cash offers and bidding wars can allow you to profit the most off of your investment. Below are tips to ensure your home is ready to list at any point in time without too much work being do...
