Realtor's work on commission!! and Eat Your Breakfast Recipe from Rebekah!

REALTOR'S WORK ON COMMISSION!!

Just a heads up...

I got this question a few times after my last email: "How much does it cost to hire a Realtor?" A legitimate question.

The answer is NOTHING. Realtors work on a commission that is usually paid by the SELLER, traditionally 6% to be split among the agents. If you are on the BUYERS side it's free although in some case, the buyer can agree to split the cost with the seller BEWARE! There should not be any up front fee for a Realtors service. If someone tries to charge you, call me :) 310-597-2089

Below is a link to a short video that explains this case a little bit better.

View this email in your browser 9 Reason's Why You Should Eat Breakfast Everyday   Loose Weight Get an Energy Boost Reduce the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Prevent Heart Disease Enhance Your Memory Live To 100! Fight Cravings Get Your Daily Intake of Nutrients Prevent Cold & Flu I love breakfast, it's my favorite meal of the day. I could never go throughout the day without first having my breakfast! It helps me  early in the day to intake the fibers, proteins, carbs, and fats in my diet to help me feel energized throughout the day. I'm less hungry and am more thoughtful about what I eat, when it comes to lunch or dinner. I always start my day off with either 1.) Oatmeal Bowl 1/3 cup oats 2 tbsp PB2 3 large egg whites OR 2.) PB & Chocolate Smoothie 1 scoop vegan chocolate protein powder 1 frozen banana dash cinnamon 1 large tbsp peanut butter 3 ice cubes 1-2 cups almond or cashew milk It helps me control my cravings throughout the day and allows my body to start the process of breaking down the foods for the day. I also know that whatever calories I eat for breakfast will be burned easily before lunch. I encourage you to try to incorporate breakfast into your diet everyday and see how different you feel. I have 3 breakfast recipes on my e-book http://bit.ly/5StepsToMotivation the book is only $4.99 and there are plenty of other recipes for lunch, dinner, healthy snack & desserts as well. I encourage you to start making breakfast part of your morning routine.

For the Week Ending July 8, 2016   Please enjoy this quick update on what happened this week in the housing and financial markets.     U.S. stock markets have fully recovered after huge losses following Britain's vote to leave the EU. Markets don't believe a Fed rate increase is possible this year.   Fed minutes from last month's FOMC meeting show the Fed was concerned about a possible Brexit. Global turmoil means the Fed is unlikely to raise rates.   A strong labor market is supporting the housing market. This week there was an increase in private payrolls and decrease in unemployment benefit claims.   Mortgage applications were up 14% on falling rates last week. While many were for refinances, purchase applications were 23% higher year-over-year.   Purchase applications could have been higher, according to experts. Lack of inventory plagues many markets, but has helped drive home prices back up.   Inventory concerns are not only for the purchase market. Rental demand has increased across all age groups and income types, creating a supply imbalance.         Rate movements and volatility are based on published, aggregate national averages and measured from the previous to the most recent midweek daily reporting period. These rate trends can differ from our own and are subject to change at any time.
