Thanks for the update and holding me accountable. I always want to be as accurate as I can be with my blogging.

Interesting, thanks!

But your last paragraph is so not true. Scott Stapp was back home within days of the incident. His wife had the order lifted almost immediately.

Check out Scott Stapp's MySpace page for a recent video blog showing Scott in his studio and enjoying family time coaching his son's basketball team.

In response to: The best South Florida airlines available

I actully flew Southwest for the first time a couple weeks ago. Normally I fly spirit or US Airways. So I was a little hesitant at first but overall not a bad airline. They were however on time and the boarding process and unloading was the faster than any other airline that I'v flown. Nice to know I'm flying the #1 airline for on time flights.

Gus, I was referring to the probability that interest rates will go up soon and the amount of home a person will be able to afford wil decrease.

This realtor isn't lying to anyone, Shabba. The fact is that buying a home right now is a good thing for most people. Depending on how the elections turn out, what the Federal reserve does next time, and where the market goes, the interest rates stand a good chance of going up. ARM mortgages are going up slowly and getting into a fixed rate mortgage now is a good idea.

I hope that home prices go down. That is always good for business but the reality is that homes aren't moving in some areas of the country. Here in Fort Lauderdale, we are still buying and selling and moving real estate so Broward County is still a good place to be in regards to the real estate market.

I am glad, however, that you want to talk about it and hope to see you again.

Don't wait any longer since you might not be able to afford it soon.

Huh?

You've got to be kidding me! Prices aren't going down? What planet do you sell real estate on?

In just a couple of weeks interest rates on jumbo loans(over 417k) went from the mid sixes to eight percent. What happens when interest rates go up? Prices go down! What happens when foreclosures go up? Prices go down! What happens when speculators stop buying houses? Prices go down! What happens when the inventory of unsold homes reaches record levels? Prices go down!

Name a single factor that would support prices going up, and provide some credible data to support you assertion. Why can't you be straightforward with people and explain how out of line prices are with incomes and what they have historically been? Are there any honest realtors out there?

Realtors have gotten away with lying to the public for long enough. Once this storm passes people will finally start to realize how corrupt the Real Estate Investment Community is and believe me they will take action.

In response to: Donald Trump fights the flag fines in Palm Beach

I was in W. Palm Beach recently. I've seen his house. He's not there in the summer. That home of his would house the whole homeless population of Springfield Illinois. Why does he need so many homes and why so darned big??? That one home is bigger than the Governors' mansion in Illinois.

And why can't he follow the law like the rest of the poor citizens do?? Does he feel he's too rich to abideby our laws? Evidently so.
