Tim Bosworth, PA and MA Licensed Realtor’s Summary

Dear Friends:

I'm back from Provincetown. I have established an exclusive, reciprocal relationship with an agency up there. I'm positioning myself to be the "go to guy" here in Philly for purchasing RE on the lower Cape.

Writing 2.0--Christmas and Foreshadowing.

Christmas: Don't let a good opportunity go by. For next to nothing, someone who loves mysteries or classical music can give hours of enjoyment to others. If you know of anyone who would like a really great present for a friend or loved-one, tell them just click on www.kearneymusicschoolmurders.blogspot.com and download the book for free.

Foreshadowing: Foreshadowing can be an effective tool early in the story, but can be overdone. So do it, but slightly, like putting salt on meat. A little makes the meat taste good; too much of it does not and may be harmful to you if you're sensitive to sodium.

Real Estate 2.0--Code of Ethics

I want better-educated real estate consumers out there. In that vein, Standard of Practice 1-10 says: "REALTORS@ shall, consistent with the terms and conditions of their real estate licensure and their property manaement agreement, competently manage the property of clients with due regard for the rights, safety and health of tenants and others lawfully on the premises."

The fact that the landlord didn't do this affected me when I was younger in Madison, Wisconsin. He wouldn't come and plow us out when we had a big snowfall because it was the weekend. For the rest of the story, check my blog: www.yourstopforrealestate.com/blog.

Entrepreneurship 2.0--Breakeven Point

Wikipedia, the free, on-line encyclopedia, describes the breakeven point for a given business as, "the point at which cost or expenses and revenue are equal: there is no net loss or gain, and one has 'broken even'." Breakeven point analysis is a useful tool for entrepreneurs in a number of ways. For my ideas on break even points and entrepreneurship, go to www.hatman2.blogspot.com
