INSPIRATION FOR TODAY:


"There is a law in psychology that if you form a picture in your mind of what you would like to be, and you keep and hold that picture there long enough, you will soon become exactly as you have been thinking."  
~ William James 
YOU'RE THE PHOTOGRAPHER! 
Most people, when they have their camera in hand, take snapshots of other people or things. The focus is on anything and everything outside themselves. What many don't realize is that they also have a super high-resolution camera in their minds. 
The words of William James are not new. They've been said before in many forms, i.e. "As a man thinketh, so is he," or "You are what you think about all day long," or "A man is what his thoughts make of him." 
By simply framing a picture in your mind of the person you would like to become, then acting like that person - you ARE that person! I believe it was Zig Ziglar who said it this way: "Fake it 'til you make it!" In other words, just by "acting" like the person you want to be, you actually become that person. 
Likewise, we often create our own limitations by creating small pictures of who we are. In the words of Michelangelo (1475-1564), "The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it." 
Why not take a closer look at the image you've created of yourself? Is it in focus? Does it portray the person you really want to be? Should you "zoom" in for a closer look, or go "wide angle" to broaden your horizons? 
Your life is whatever you imagine it to be. Create a masterpiece!

Market Stats for Tracy and Mountain House

The following information is from the local MLS database, as of February 2, 2015 and is compared to (January 1, 2015).  As we enter the second month of 2015 we are  seeing the lowest amount of homes on the market all year which is to be expected.  Prices are only reducing slightly with price reductions posted daily.   Interest rates are slightly improving with 30 yr fixed at 4.35% and FHA/VA at 3.75%. 15 yr is 3.125. New home construction projects are popping up more in the area and even though the prices are a little higher, there are still good deals out there in the new communities.  Don't forget...We can represent you with the new home builders too!  Don't go with out being represented!
   If you have been on the Fence about selling your home then NOW is the time to sell. There will be more homes coming on the market  and the buyers that are looking are SERIOUS buyers!  Don't wait till Spring like the rest of the sellers.  If you are curious to see how much equity you have in your house, give us a call for a market analysis!
