Our goal is to raise $40,000 to build a playground for the Catherine Booth house (a confidential, emergency shelter for women and children escaping domestic violence).  This facility is sponsored by the Salvation Army.

We are currently offering opportunities for businesses in our area to help with this effort.  You can help in one of the following ways:

1)      Donate $ to help cover the expenses of the event.  A minimum donation of $100 is appreciated.

2)      Donate an auction item.

Our business sponsors will be recognized and promoted at the event.  Your name will be on the invitation and the event program and you will be included as part of the “Best of the West” in your business category.

We would greatly appreciate your participation in helping us improve the lives of women and children in our local community.  Please let me know if you would like more information or have any questions regarding this request.

1)  The Best Homes sell first: Regardless of the market the best homes always sell first. If a home is priced right and in great condition it will sell for the best price.

2) Length of stay: How long do you plan on staying in your new home? Real estate values normally do go up and down. In the long run buying a home still is a great investment. The best time to buy is in a down market and sell in an up market.

2) Excellent time to Buy: Since prices and interest rates remain low now is a great time to buy.

3) Don't just look at a home as an investment. It needs to be an emotional purchase too and one that you really will enjoy living in.

4) Location: Make sure it accommodates your needs close to schools,work and shopping.

5) Cost Associated with Waiting: We can not predict the bottom of the market. You might miss your golden opportunity if you wait. Prices may go up,inflation,taxes or political changes.

1) The Law of Supply and Demand:  When inventory goes up and demand goes down,prices fall. You need to understand the market is not like it was in 2005. Currently there are over 12 months of inventory on the market.

2) Market Value:  This is what buyers are willing to pay for your home and what you are willing to sell it for. Buyers right now are comparision shopping. They have more time to think about the home they want to buy.

3) Accurate Pricing:  Make sure you do not overprice your home in this market. Over priced homes seldom sell.
