Real Estate Law and Knowing What You are Signing

Real Estate Law is a lot more complicated than it has ever been in the past. Now when you sign a brokerage agreement with a realtor instead of 1 page or 2 pages it is 14 pages? That is just for the listing. Why is it so long? Well that is nothing compared to all the other forms involved and they just keep getting bigger due to all the laws, bureaucracy and lawyers. Everyone is so busy trying to cover themselves and their rear ends from every known or potential eventuality.

It is a giant game of 100s of pages of What Ifs. How can you have time to read it all? Well you need to make the time and it also makes sense to not allow yourself to be forced into doing anything too fast out of social conditioning. Such as thinking you might look stupid if you read it all or that you are wasting the other person’s time. In Real Estate Law you have a right to knowing what you are signing and why.

If you were a business person would you sign an agreement without reading it all the way through? I think not. And realize your home is probably the biggest personal investment you will ever make and it will take you years to pay it off. Is it worth rushing through if you still have questions? Read it, understand it and ask questions and you will be glad you did.

Go buy the book Real Estate Law 4 Smarty Pants’ if you can find that title; if you have to, but please read and understand what you are signing. I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.

Running an Online Home-Based Business – Building The Mindset For Success

Ever had one of those days when you felt in control and knew that everything was going to go just right?Well if you are doing business online, then this is what you will want to experience more often than not. You do not want to be mired in doubt, confusion or consternation about what you are about and what outcomes to expect.Because running a home based online business exposes you to so much needless distraction, you want to have the type of mindset that minimizes the effects of this level of exposure.Having a mindset with those characteristics will not come out of mere luck. It will emerge as a result of adopting some very important principles on how you run your online home based business.Among the more important of these principles are:* Defining your end-game as clear as possible. Because you know where the end zone is, then you know what to drive for.
* You know what the core of your business is. In one sentence you can describe what your business is about.
* You know what it takes to keep your business going and growing.
* You know what tools and systems you will need to run and support your business.
* You are focused on acquiring and using only those tools and do not get distracted by the promise of what seem dubious.
* You do not undermine your own efforts by skipping all over the internet looking for that magic bullet. You know the magic bullet is right there in the plans you have put together for your business.And further, as you establish and base your actions on these principles you develop associated mantras to keep you tuned in to what you are really supposed to be about.Here are some key mantras to help in this regard:* I am online to run a business, not to chase business opportunities.* Because I have chosen to chase only my business goals, I have conditioned my mind, my emotions and my resolve to react only to those resources that will result in me attaining those goals.* Through my actions, I have to demonstrate to my subconscious that I have the utmost respect for my time, financial resources, my mindset and my skills.* If I fully respect my time, financial resources, mindset, and skills then they in turn will create in me a level of focus that will allow me to attain a higher level of efficiency in my thinking and in my actions.* My online business ventures and the tools that support them are the result of deliberate decisions on my part that are in keeping with my personal goals for my life.Running an online business has unique challenges that call for a particular mindset if you are going to be successful. Pay as much attention to developing this mindset as you pay to developing your business plans.
