Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics

Krista Kennedy — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 22:32:41 +0000

I just finished my holiday shopping! You can too – U.S.A. Residents get your tickets, but they are going fast at http://www.cosport.com. Select from the drop down menu USA, then I suggest you go to Individual Ticket sales and start looking. I’m so excited we will be seeing a couple of quarter final hockey games, freestyle skiing and some curling matches. American site still has sporting events available that are sold out on the Canadian site! I’m not happy that I won’t get to see any figure skating, and that was one of my main sports growing up! So, if you have an extra ticket for that….(they are sold out for Canada and USA). 87 more days and Olympic Fever has hit Vancouver! The snow is covering the mountains – so beautiful!

Home Buyers Tax Credit News

Krista Kennedy — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 19:45:03 +0000

Wanted to share a note I received this morning from the National Association of Realtors. Just copy and paste the links at the end for more details of what this may mean for you. This is great news for our economy! Home prices in Phoenix are great for buyers and interest rates are still at historically low levels! Check my website under Market Data & My Blog for updated Lending information.

Dear Krista,
You did it. You’ve succeeded in achieving a huge victory for real estate. Congress heard you on the need to both extend and expand the homebuyer tax credit to continue stimulating the housing sector of the economy. The Senate voted 98-0 on Wednesday and yesterday the House voted 403-12 on legislation that includes the extension and expansion of the credit. The President is expected to sign the legislation, perhaps as early as today.
Thank you for making this victory happen. Your letters in response to our Call for Action made a very big difference, as did the thousands of REALTOR® phone calls, visits by Federal Political Coordinators—all members of NAR—in getting this legislation passed. This is a great victory for the economy, for homebuyers, and for all of you in real estate. You made your case to Congress. We deeply appreciate your commitment and involvement on this issue and trust your continued support will follow in the weeks ahead on all our future Calls for Action.

Time Saver Tip

Krista Kennedy — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 05:12:31 +0000

Ever get a phone call with no I.D. and wonder who it was? I Googled a missed # and found www.800notes.com.
In their search, you just type in the number. Now I have a better idea if it’s legitimate or not, based on the comments already posted.

Asthma can Turn on a Dime

Krista Kennedy — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 19:04:39 +0000

Scary morning. Son had severe asthma attack complicated with croup. Puffer given (hadn’t been needed for years). Called 911, had the FD here; ER for more treatment. He is better now, but will be watching/listening. Glad he responded to all the meds Not out of the woods yet.

Beautiful sunny day in Phoenix, enjoyed the drive to Mesa to attend the ARMLS Technopalooza. Learning more about social networking. Good info!
