Thank you very much and have a good weekend.

It's happened to a friend of mine, his wife ran out with one of his friends, he was devastated, and it took a toll on him and his career was in ruins.So pay attention, quick weekend getaways, take her out to dinner and do things she likes, you can allocated a bit of time for her.

Especially this time of year, the volume of buyers is going to vary tremendously week-to-week, depending on the timing of schools starting, the timing vacations (which is going to be related to when schools start, etc).We have weekends where there are no showings, and then weekends where we have a dozen showings on the same property -- the difference is not market forces, but timing.In addition, depending on when specifically you listed the property will make a difference.

It can be something small, like a fancy dinner or if the transaction went really well then it can be a weekend getaway.

Now hopefully Hurricane Irene cooperates this weekend and doesn't force me to put up shutters at my house and my rental.

Sure, we can spend all weekend checking out garage sales, thrift stores, and consignment shops (the latter never cheap in my experience), but you still may not find the item you're looking for and all you have to show for the effort is several wasted hours and gallons of gas.

When I'm trying to buy REOs I look at a dozen houses every weekend and write offers on three or four.

Great responses; I'm looking forward to more . . . it was a little quiet over the holiday weekend -- which is to be expected.

Here is the actual ad: http://toledo.craigslist.org/reo/2544697966.html.No joke, I had 5 offers over the weekend and just put it under contract last night.

Hi all,Happy Labor Day Weekend to all !
