Goal Setting Questions
Goal Setting is Essential whether you are working with century 21, ReMax, American Caribean, or Coldwell Banker Schmitt real estate agent, choose your agent who is going to represent your best interest
- What are the five most important values in your life? What would you sacrifice for?

This is called the quick-list method.
-If I were just given a million dollars, tax free, what would be the first thing that I would do with it?
(Now please, do not say "pay off my bills." Of course you would do that. Forget about survival. We are talking BIG prosperity here. I want you to stretch yourself and think of what you would really love to do with the money.)

(this is six healthy months with out pain or debilitating disease)

Real Estate Tips
Closing or Settlement >Closing Paperwork
When you buy a house you are asked to sign an amazing number of documents, especially if you are obtaining a mortgage loan. It is prudent to read all of the papers before signing them, but it may not be practical to do this at the actual closing. There is a way you can read everything first without holding up the closing.
The title company should have the papers ready for your review several days before the closing, but sometimes the lender delivers the paperwork at the last minute. If you insist on reading the fine print on every page, you will probably draw some serious groans from the others at the table. One practical solution is to request copies of all of the standard forms a week before the closing, so that you can read them at your leisure. At the closing you need only to make sure that the information is filled in correctly.

By The Way!
Why is that immigrants to the United States succeed and become self-made millionaires at four times the rate of native-born Americans on a per-capita basis? and the simplest reason of all, aside from the fact that they had to have more ambition to leave their home to come here, is that they come here with a blank slate...is they come here, and they say, "Now, I'm starting all over from nothing." Many of them come here penniless, with no friends, no contacts, no ability to speak English. They have no education. They have no background. they start with nothing but a blank slate. and what they do is they say, "Now, I'm in the land of dreams. What is my dream?" (Brian Tracy). Does this resonate with you? it does with me! Now what is your dream?
Thank You. Lela
