Every once in a while, the stars align. For those looking to bulk up on real estate education, that time is between this very minute and 5 p.m. tomorrow (June 23).
That’s the window during which the first 20 who register for the June 29-30 GRI 103 course will be rewarded with a free registration to either of the upcoming Loss Mitigation Certification sessions (July 21 or Sept. 22) — a savings of $99.
GRI 103 is one of the eight modules necessary to earn one’s Graduate REALTOR® Institute designation and covers the Code of Ethics, REALTOR® professional guidelines, contracts and agency. It is taught by 2010 NHAR President Monika McGillicuddy and NHAR legal hotline attorney Matt Johnson. As an additional benefit, it is the only GRI module that qualifies for the National Association of REALTORS® quadrennial ethics training requirement.

What is the Loss Mitigation Certification? A one-day course that provides information and guidance on the complicated transactions involving foreclosures, short sales, properties at auction or banked owned, and gives attendees useful ways to protect their commissions while assisting buyers, sellers and mortgage companies through the process. It also addresses the human element of these transactions, as consumers potentially face losing their homes.
Those first 20 registered for GRI 103 (including those who have already registered) will be prompted to register for the LMC course, at no charge, when then arrive at NHAR on June 29.
So don’t delay. Be one of the first 20, and take advantage of this sweet deal from NHAR.
NOTE: This credit applies only to the LMC course and may not be used in exchange for any other course offering.

Happy Birthday Monika!
While I was sleeping
—By Joan Mirantz
Up until this past year or so, I spent a good portion of my time working on “improving my web presence.” I actively blogged (usually daily), I interviewed local merchants for community pieces … all to get myself to the top of the Google list. I also wrote, published and mailed a monthly brochure to my client list.
I worked really hard!
(This past year has been a bit of a fog for me.)
I’ve gone through the motions (or “walked the walk and talked the talk,” as they say). I’ve crossed the T’s and dotted the I’s. I’ve done my best for the clients I’ve worked with … but that’s where the efforts ended. Read more…
Signs of life?
−By Dave Cummings
Should New Hampshire REALTORS® be hopeful that a confluence of encouraging signs in June — including a slight increase in residential sales, a 22 percent decrease in foreclosures and a 22-month low in the absorption rate — may be part of a positive trend in the real estate market?

Embrace the good monster

—By Dave Cummings
“A monstow in ayy, Daddy.”
For those without your 2-year-old to English dictionary at hand, that was our daughter Rosie (“There’s a monster in there, Daddy”), who has recently become fascinated with a beast that her older brothers have convinced her exists in her room, atop the dryer, in the tub, under the bed, in the refrigerator, and most anywhere else she would possibly venture within our home.
“A monstow in ayy.”
But unfortunately for Noah and Mason, whose singular goal seems to be to strike fear in their little sister’s heart, Rosie has spun their tale in a direction opposite terror.
“S’a good monstow, Daddy.”
