Candidates Mum on Climate Change

A nation inured to wanton murder was nevertheless shocked by this one: In November 2010, a group of four young men milling about as a party ended attacked another teen, randomly picking him as the victim of their vicious assault. Bobby Tillman, 18, did nothing to provoke his assailants to knock him to the ground and kick and stomp him to death.The crime occurred outside a suburban Atlanta home after parents called a halt to a teen party that had gotten out of control. This was no beating by members of a rival gang, no attack set off by longstanding grudges or old misunderstandings. ...

Golfers played fewer rounds nationwide in July compared with a year ago, although more people were swinging away in Colorado, according to statistics released Friday by the PGA of America.

Rounds played across the country dropped 1.5 percent last month compared with July 2011, while days in which courses were open dropped by 0.3 percent. In Colorado, rounds played increased 1.1 percent. Nationally, private clubs saw the steepest drop of 3.4 percent. Municipal courses declined 1.6 percent, and resorts were down 0.9 percent. Daily fee/semi-private courses saw the smallest drop of 0.7 percent. The PGA PerformanceTrak report noted that July had nine weekend days, which are typically busier for golf courses, compared with 10 for July 2011.

The "Performance Factor," which accounts for bad weather, was 98.8 for July, indicating that rounds played per day open were down. July's results were based on responses from 2,822 facilities.

For the year, rounds played are up 10.6 percent, and days open are up 10.9 percent.

Why Hire a Portland - Real Estate Agent PDX

August 30th, 2012 Many people ask today, ?With so much information online about how to sell my home, why should I use a real estate agent?? A lot of people believe they can put on a real estate agent hat and sell their own home without a lot of fuss or difficulty. I?m going to give you four quick reasons why you should hire a Portland real estate agent.

1. Education. Most of our education as real estate agents revolves around how to not get in legal trouble. There are countless legal pitfalls in real estate and agents have to study on average for six months to pass their license exam (mostly filled with legal questions). In addition to the education required to obtain the license, Portland Realtors must take an average of 30 hours of continuing education every other year to stay up with changing laws and practices.

2. Experience. A typical home owner will buy and sell a home less than 10 times in their lifetime. A good Portland real estate agent will be involved in over 20 transactions a year. Personally, I?ve been licensed for 10 years coming up in 2013 and last year I was involved in over 40 transactions. It is easy to see how fast the numbers can add up. A good real estate agent will know what to expect and will have been there before. The can be your unequalled advisor.

3. Marketing. If you are trying to sell you home these days, online is king. Over 94% of buyers are looking for homes online. As a home owner you may find access to a few key websites. As a Portland real estate agent I?ve brokered deals with the top five real estate websites in the country and pay huge sums of money (with massive bulk discounts) in order to achieve over 100,000 online views on average per listing. On top of the five top websites, my online feeds hit thousands more. Simply put, the home owner can?t compete with a good Portland real estate agent in terms of marketing. (Especially those of us who make it a priority.)

4. Negotiaton. Most people have negoation skills, they negotiate with their families, when they buy cars, at works perhaps, and other senarios. However, Portland real estate agents are used to negoating with banks, investors, first time home buyers, other real estate agents, trustees, title companies, and more. Frankly put, no one has done more pertinent negotation in real estate than your Portland Realtor.
