RN I'd say TGIF but I work 6 am - 3 pm tomorrow and Sunday at the grocery store! RN I'm thinking that if we don't have a little Emma yet that she'll be on her way soon. We didn't hear from Escapee yesterday and they were supposed to induce, right?

Right now I think you are right Saxy.... they were to induce on the 23rd. Right then (about 15 years ago) I worked in a grocery store and loved it. It was just my high school/part time job, but one of my fav's. Is it weird that I loved being a cashier.

RN, has anyone else tried ditech.com to check their home's value? i heard it usually is higher than zillow's estimate. when i go to ditech, though, it will only put my home's info up for a split second and then go to a blank screen. there is no way to read the report! i have tried several times and cannot get more than 1/10 of a second's showing... then i hate the ones that say 'instant' and you fill out the crud and then 'someone will call you inthe next 24hours'. uh, that's not 'instant' and i don't want a call, thank you! i mean, if i made instant mashed potatoes and had to wait to eat them til 'sometime in the next 24 hours', they would pretty much be cold after the first half hour, or i'd be eating my main course without 'em...

RN, no word from Escapee yet? She does understand that we should be no less than 3rd (I'm being generous) on her list of contacts, doesn't she?

Right now can I consider it a productive day if I've done no housework if 1.) I paid all the bills, 2.) balanced the checkbook, 3.) made a menu and grocery list for two weeks, and 4.) decided we're eating out tonight? Cuz that's all I've done today and I don't feel like cleaning up the house, lol!

RN I do enjoy being a cashier (I'm having lots of fun), but 6 am - 3 pm shifts do get long. I'm gonna try to be in bed by 10 tonight! Wish me luck.

RN, on the star trek one, not sure if the guy did the addition several years ago by permit or not. when i use zillow, it shows it as 1100 sf and it's now 1400 sf plus there is a new detached garage. i think it's worth maybe 25-35k more than ditech and zillow say, but they are within 5k of each other on both of our homes. our house is listed for 459k and when i look up other listings in our area they are listed a lot higher than zillow's estimate. some are asking up to 100k more than what zillow's estimates. i sure hope a potential buyer looks at the estimators and then our price and feels it's a good thing to 'pay less'. wait, isn't that a store's slogan?!

RN i am a little ticked because we did not get our friday paper. we only get a paper on tuesday and friday and only friday has the real estate section. i called about 4 hours ago, but still no re-delivery. i can't even steal, er, i mean borrow a neighbor's, because either they all took theirs in real early, or no one in the racquet club area got one today.

RN I tried the zillow site and got estimate. Does anyone know where they get the estimates? Tried the ditech and could not find the place to get estimates. Didn't want a loan just value of home.

suz: from the site then click "how to use zillow" it explains. here's the link: http://www.zillow.com/howto/Zestimate.z (that explains how they come up with the estimate)

RN, on the ditech page go down and on the left it says 'free appraisal'. mine still will only 'flash' the page for a fraction of a second. i don't know why! it worked fine for julieboo. thanks again, julieboo! we have people coming from over the hill (san jose area) on sunday morning with an agent from there. tomorrow we'll do another mopping, vacuuming, scrubbing day and sunday morning, dd, kendall and i will go for a drive during the expected time. it's best not to be around, plus kendall's coughing would probably have them thinking, "contaminated, dirty house"!

rn, that is funny tabby...but not true luckily. after "seeing" your home, i'm beginning to wonder what the problem could be. i guess people just want the new homes as you mentioned.? maybe try to get specifics from the previous people who didn't buy (from the agent). meaning, more specifics. also, didn't you mention that your agent lives across the street from you? well, it doesn't sound like it's the case with you...but, i remember back when i sold my home. our agent lived next door. i had never spoken to her before. but, when she heard my house was for sale; she asked if she could sell it. she was/used to be an agent. well, when we got 2 offers for the same price...she "encouraged" me towards one couple over the other. i just hope your agent isn't being biased about who might be her new neighbors and doesn't "approve" of some . probably not, since she has a commission coming, but just a thought. are there any large corporations in your area? if so, you might advertise in their newsletters (possible transfers?)
