Housing Market Will Bounced Back

Just the other day, one realtor told us that the Real Estate business is showing a good sign. More people are looking to purchase a home in fact, she sold 4 houses in two weeks time. Just two blocks away from our neighborhood, a housing complex will be constructed soon. Indeed, there is a good sign that the housing market bounced back from rock bottom.

During the first quarter of last year, we were scouting for a new home and it saddened us to see houses in foreclosure. Too many families were forced to find a new place to live and lost their homes where kids lived most of their lifetime.

Housing market will soon come back. People finds job and will be able to purchase and own their property again. I am hopeful that it will not be too far the wait.

Probate Court

Have you made your last will and testament yet? If not, it is very important that you do this for the simple reason that your last wishes will be carried out exactly as you want them to. Another important reason would be if you have minor children you want to be able to designate who will be there Guardian when you pass away. If you do not do this the decision could be left up to the court. Do you really want to have the state to decide the fate of your children. You do not want your estate to go into the hands of the probate court, either as this will definitely take much longer to settle and be expensive for the loved ones left behind. So do a little prior planning and make your last will and testament now.

Last Will And Testament

But in some states the law may not divide the property the way you wanted. For example in some cases, the court has divided  the property evenly among the spouse and children. To make sure your final wishes are honored have a last will and testament drawn up. We can draw up a last will and testament for you for as low as $60, then you will have the peace of mine that your last wishes will be carried out. We except all major credit cards.

Leggings and Tights: No nonsense Products

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of No nonsense. All opinions are 100% mine.

My wife love clothes and shoes in fact; I call her Imeldefic. Not really that extravagant but, she has full closet of clothes and shoes that she rarely wear in a year. The good thing about her is that, she buys her own wardrobe and has a good heart to donate some of it (new with tags) every Christmas. Anyway, when I received the No nonsense tights and leggings last Christmas, she was so delighted and put it on when we went to mall shopping. I received the camel corduroy leggings and I gave it to her as one of my surprise Christmas gift.

My wife said that the legging was very comfortable and has kept her warm all day. She paired it with her new boots. If you are looking for leggings, you should check out No nonsense products.

Question of the Day

If you are at a garage sale and saw a painting which you recognized as a Picasso then, you buy it for $50; is it fraud to fail to disclose this information to the seller?

The answer is NO. It is not fraud . The law of contracts does not require either party to disclose everything they know about the subject matter of the contract except in limited circumstances.
