Setting up the blog is not as easy as it seems…….

Today I started a new blog…. I went to several Real Estate classes and Political classes and I was told how easy it would be.   I now finally have a sort of nice site. It has lots of room for improvement.  I have some of my site linking to it but not all.  I spent at least 6 hours on it and I couldn’t have done it without my housemate.  I am now very bleary eyed and tired.  The wordpress site seems very powerful but not intuitively easy like the activerain site.  The problem with active rain is that they started charging for premium services and I think my blog might be hidden.  I think I will try to set up pointers to both blogs so that I post in both places.  I still need to get my Zillow and Skidoo pointers to my blog.  I wonder if my political campaign manager (eldest son) could clean it up a bit.  He did my political website plus worked on Congressman’s Minnicks site.  I bet he could put some polish on it…. Just for fun my old logo…  only I could manage to hook up the images together….. Well tomorrow is another day…

I am not running

What topics do you want me to blog about?

Hello world!

Hello this is my new blog intended for mostly Real Estate.  This will be my third blog.  My first is hosted on active rain (started in 2007)  as a Real Estate Blog.  The second is on 43ed state blues which is a political blog that I wrote while I ran for political office in 2008.  Now I am back to selling homes.   First a bit about me…

Hello, My name is Debbie Holmes, and I want to help you with all your real estate needs. My family has enjoyed living in Boise since 1991, and I know the community and neighborhoods. I will make the process of selling and/or buying real estate as simple as possible. I can handle to normal problems to the difficult. I have experience with short sales and bank negotiations. I will help you from finding the home, the loan officer, the buyer, contractors, etc… I will take it from the beginning of the process through closing. Call me at (208)761-2551 to see if buying or selling is right for you. I work in Ada and Canyon counties. As a factoid ran for Congress in the 2008 election as a Democrat in District 2.

This is me      I am married     and have 3 boys  (why I work)

We live in Boise with 2 dogs, 2 cats and a British Exchange student who is my age, Annie..

I am sometimes political but mostly sell houses…  One kid has graduated college, One is at Cambridge and the last is starting the College of Idaho in the fall.  I love what I do and want to share it with you.

Today this real estate agent needs to work on 2 pendings (deals under contract), one out of town buyer.  I also need to meet my handyman Bill at one of my rentals….. We will talk more later.
