Who knows how many more "Deals of a Lifetime" CBH will ultimately have; however Corey Barton has proven to be almost like a cat with nine lives and always seems to land on his feet. While many builders are struggling, CBH has actually seen a 133% increase in sales over last year accroding to an article in last weeks Business Review!
I know this promotion is also going to be successful for CBH because two of my Realtors have already written offers on homes for their clients.
This promotion runs from October 24 - 26th. It covers 200 Brand New Homes located throughout the valley in their communities. They range in price and have a number of floor plans to choose from.
For a complete list of homes and prices, just email or call me.

With today's announcement of the 15% job reductions over 2 years at Micron (Idaho's largest private employer) how will that impact the local real estate market?

The Federal Reserve cut the key US interest rate by a full half point this AM. Even China has cut their interest rates trying to stimulate their slowing economy.
Keep in mind that this rate is not directly tied to mortgage rates. It does however have an immediate impact on short term money loans such as credit cards, home equity lines of credit, etc.
As Bank of America continues to be the white night of several institutions, it will be interesting to see how the next few years impacts them. From what I understand, at least their acquisitions are being made via cash, not leveraged buyouts!
It will be interesting to see what the Feds do during their regularly scheduled meeting on October 28-29th.
What would a bank statement be these days without a disclsoure, so "The US Treasury Secretary, Henry Paulson, is no known relation to me, Jim Paulson".

Enough about houses aren't selling already. The problem is we have too many homes on the market and too many people servicing the industry, the reality is that there were still 145 closings reported in the Intermountain MLS in September.

As the stock market tanks today, I am glad I own more real estate than stocks these days!

Class space sells out as Realtors rush to get this timely designation from the National Association of Realtors. Now that I have my designation, I see why their slogan is "EcoBroker is Education that Means Business and Makes a Difference"

I was shocked watching how quickly the fire spread this evening in SE Boise and was even more so when I realized I was watching a friends home burn on live TV! Please do what you can to help these innocent victims reclaim their losses.
