Will the first time home buyer tax credit be extended? Watch video for update

The word it out, we are continuing to push for an extension of the first time home buyer tax credit for another year. According to the statistics, 1.4 million people have already taken advantage of it. 375,000 would have not bought without it!

Our principal broker, Leslee MacKenzie at Coldwell Banker Hickok and Boardman Realty states that in our company alone, over half of the purchasers this year were first time home buyers. There is enough evidence out there to suggest that it is working...will it be enough to convince the need for an extension?

Are you living/buying the best feng shui house for you?

Picture taken from http://dawnsvision.com/images/feng_shui%20-witing.jpg

Did you know that everybody has a specific house that will increase their wealth, health, romantic relationships, and personal development?

Did you know that some houses will actually HURT or HARM (according to Feng Shui) your wealth, health, romantic relationships, and personal development?

Do you know which house is right for you and are you living in it right now??

Are you curious to find out?

First, do you know your KUA number? This is different for everybody. To find yours, go to KUA number.

Second, now that you know your "best" and "worst" directions, you also know if you are an East or a West group person from these charts.

Third, based on your directions, please read http://tinyurl.com/yl8b3wk to determine if your house should sit in the West, East, etc.

Now go get your compass and if you learn that your house sits in the wrong direction based on your personal KUA number, you can either change the placement of your furniture (which will help some...) OR, you can call your favorite realtor and find the house that is right for you and start living to your fullest potential!!

Confused? Have questions? It is overwhelming so don't be discouraged. If you don't "get it" or understand...send me an email and I'll be happy to help you! mbedard@hickokandboardman.com
