Recently I’ve started using Google Calendar to help me track my day to day activities, as opposed to Outlook. I wanted a calendar that was accessable from anywhere, since I’m not always at the same computer. That was my primary concern, and it was also Google Calendar’s primary feature! After using Gmail for several months (before I bought my domain and moved all my mail here), I realized that Google puts together an incredibly solid suite of programs designed to help us be more efficient.
Google Calendar offers many features and benefits, such as the ability to add multiple calendars and color code them. I like this because it allows me to separate different activities. In addition, it is incredibly easy to share your calendar with someone else and control what they can and can’t see. For instance, I can share my main calendar with someone, and allow them to see and edit events, just see but not edit events, or only see that I’m busy.
Fannie Mae, the large mortgage backing entity recently bailed out by the government, has made a smart financial move. They announced that they will be allowing the tenants living in foreclosed properties owned by fiscally irresponsible landlords to remain in place, as long as their rent remains current. Freddie Mac has not yet announced a similar move, but is expected to do so soon. A spokesman for Freddie Mac stated that they were working out the operational details of such a move. [
I’m deviating from my normal posts about real estate and technology to bring you a recipe that was shared with me by another agent in my office. Ashley, our office manager (and newest agent – congrats!) was raving about these truffles that she made this past weekend, and I finally broke down and made some last ngiht.
