Washington Mortgage Planner-straight up mortgage advice and commentary

The New Year means change. What have you decided to do?

Good morning: I find myself in my bathrobe this morning thinking about the fact that I'm starting with my brand new company this Monday. And I have to admit I'm pretty excited!

If a person is going to make a change, I think it's a great idea to do it at the first of the year. It's a new beginning. Granted, it's a little scary to do it. In my case, I had to copy alot of the data I had and transport it over to my new workplace. My new employer has been incredibly helpful and this has made me feel like I made a great decision.

I'll keep you posted as to how it goes. There's a lot of hard work ahead and I'm hopeful the market improves as I feel like most of us are in survival mode right now. Let me know your plans for this new year. And don't be afraid to make a change if things aren't working to your satisfaction. I wish all of you the very best in 2009. You can do it! Take care.

I'm focusing more on the investments side of my business.  Developing relationships with investor groups and developing passive cash flows.

This year, I am focusing more on developing relationships as I feel that is what will truly put my business over the top.  Making real connections with real people.  Congratulations on the change to a new company!

I'm changing my eating habits, trying to be more health-conscious.  That's a major step for me.

Thankis, Mark. I appreciate it. By the way, I did the math wrong on the tax credit for new homebuyers. Silly me. You think being a mortgage guy, I should have known! Take care.

Paul, great luck at your new employer!  2009 get better?  It's easier to change a man than to change a real estate market!
