Flipping Rich

Hey everyone it has been awhile!  Great news for real estate buyers. I have recently switched real estate brokers to Webdigs which not only has the best real estate search tool I have seen, they offer HUGE rebates to real estate buyers!!

HOMEBUYERS SAVE WITH WEBDIGS BECAUSE WE GIVE THEM A CASH REBATE OF UP TO 1% OF THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THEIR HOME!

For example, if you buy a home through Webdigs for $300,000, we will give you a check for $3,000 (1% of the purchase price).    A home purchased for $200,000 will result in a 1% cash rebate of $2,000.

There is no catch to our generous cash rebate policy.  We charge a $295 administration fee (which is very low compared to industry average).  There are no hidden ”junk fees” that many other real estate brokers charge.

Additionally mortgage interest rates are extremely low.  There are great deals on homes, buyers can get 1% back, and low interest rates, which equates to HUGE savings over the course of a 30 year mortgage.

Hey so its been quite a while since there has been a hookup of the week but its never too late…

Groupon is like group-coupon.  So far we have gotten two $50 gift certificates to Moto-I for $20/each and a $40 Joes Garage gift certificate for $20.  Thats half off or better!

The way it works is you get a daily email for a coupon.  Once you find one you like, you buy it.  That simple.  Check it out  http://www.groupon.com/r/uu734891

This is something I couldnt pass up.  PNC Mortgage has been in years a long time.  It seems with the changing of the times they have also diversified into a sex service!

See PNC contact us page

The phone number they have posted, 1-800-822-5626, is a sex service. Dont believe me? give it a call!

Ouch turns out its my error.  Somehow I dialed it wrong 3 times.  Still funny.

800.822.5625 is a sex service line

I wanted to thank the Minnesota Hockey Journal for their mention of a project I have been working on for a few months.

Hockeyfinder.com is a simple tool both for players and organizers of hockey.  On page 5 of the Minnesota Hockey Journal they did a write up and included our logo.  If you get a chance grab a copy (its free).

I dont usually post things like this but Northwest Airlines Visa is offering double Worldperk miles (2 miles for every dollar).

We have used Worldperk miles to travel all over and I thought this is something worth sharing.

Days become weeks, weeks become months, etc…  Its been a tad over a week but here is another business contact you should know!

Mike Jones at Jones Blacktopping recently did a fairly large parking lot next to an apartment. The rates were way below other peoples quotes!  And Mike was outstanding at scheduling and arranging the project.  Their prices cannot be beat and their service was incredible.  While you will hopefully not need a new driveway soon, Jones Blacktopping would be my first call if I were you!

Mikes number is 952.496.3977

Asbestos Exposure and Remodeling

Few homeowners are aware that the remodeling of older homes has the potential to cause toxic asbestos exposure. As a result, necessary precautions to prevent exposure are seldom taken during renovations. Asbestos, a naturally occurring mineral, is known to cause a range of terminal diseases, such as lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma (a rare and aggressive cancer). On average, between 2,000 and 3,000 cases of mesothelioma are diagnosed every year in the United States alone, and the majority of which are diagnosed as pleural mesothelioma. Knowing where to locate potential asbestos-contaminated materials in the home is essential to avoiding exposure. Homeowners are highly advised to avoid these products and to contact a licensed asbestos abatement contractor to have any potential risks professionally assessed. For more information, please visit Asbestos.com, the Web’s most comprehensive resource on asbestos and asbestos-related disease.

I just showed a home yesterday that had asbestos tile in the basement. This is common in Minnesota, especially for homes with old boilers.
