‘A Cut Above The Rest’

A Note from Elizabeth

Welcome to the wonder world of houses, where your agent does matter. I have been yelling from the rooftops that interest rates are low! How low

EVER! The 30 year rate was under 4% at an average of 3.94%! The 15 year rates fell to an average of 3.26%, the lowest level on record! It is a great time to BUY!

A brief Thanksgiving history:In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indi-ans shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged

colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiv-ing were celebrated by individual colonies and states. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that Pres-ident Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiv-ing Day to be held each November.

Happy Thanksgiving from The Diamond Group to you!

What Are You Thankful For?What Are You Thankful For

a great question to contemplate the answer to because it will help you see what progress you have made this year. Maybe you don’t feel like you have accomplished everything you wanted to do in 2010. But with this question, you should stop thinking about what you didn’t accomplish, and be thankful for what you did accomplish.

Who Are You Thankful For

The second way is to ask yourself who you are thankful for. Has your family been extra supportive of all of your goals and intentions?

need to become successful? Have you found a partner to work with to help you achieve your goals?

Show Them Your Gratitude

Finally, take time today to show gratitude to those who have helped and supported you. Share your thankfulness by email, in a blog post, via Twitter, on Facebook walls, and so on. Let people know that you appreciate them for everything they have done, whether they know they have or not.
