The outline of the Workshop:

  • Determine what you have.
  • Determine what you want.
  • Determine what you need and how to get what you want.

    Determining what you have -- a financial inventory.

    How does one turn what they have into what they want? A plan is usually a good idea. The shorter term goal of completing a real estate transaction should have heavy consideration for your overall life plan. How much "money in the bank" do you wish to have in the year 2000, 2005, 2010, 2020? The decisions you make in this transaction are likely to effect your financial health for the rest of your life. We see too many individual who try to treat a real estate transaction as though it happens in a vacuum. Why not make the most of it now, so the rest of your life is easier?
