So I called Zillow to discuss taking up some banner ads on the search pages and when I asked about Granada Hills, the associate said that Granada Hills was searched more than any other city in the San Fernanvo Valley!! What a surprise, no wonder the houses dont last on the market longer than 20 days in Granada Hills.     10/19/2010

Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. James Allen       10/19/2010

  Attorneys general from all 50 states launched a joint investigation last week into allegations that mortgage-servicing companies submitted fraudulent documents and broke laws in foreclosure proceedings. Some lawmakers are calling for a national moratorium on foreclosures. In response, major mortgage servicers have announced a freeze on all foreclosures until internal investigations are completed. While any fraudulent activity should of course be addressed, a comprehensive moratorium on all foreclosures will do more harm than good. For starters, it won't address the underlying issue-that thousands of homeowners can't make their mortgage payments. Postponing the resolution of these debts will actually prevent consumers from extricating themselves from loans they can't afford. Worse, a n... 10/18/2010

The greatest danger for most of us is not that we aim too high    and we miss it, but we aim too low and                                                                reach it.                                                                            Michelangelo                   10/02/2010

When we let go of fear, only then can we gracefully move from    what was into the miracle of what can be.     09/30/2010

The worst bankrupt in the world is the man who has lost his  enthusiasm.   Let a man lose everything else in the world but   his enthusiasm and he will come through again to success.                                                                                            H.

Men best show their character in trifles, where they are not on their guard. It is in the simplest habits, that we often see the boundless egotism which pays no regard to the feelings of others and denies nothing to itself.    Arthur Schopenhauer   09/23/2010
