Want to learn how to buy your first castle?

Hi there everyone:
I love reading non-fiction books. I know, I know, I am missing out but I can't help it because real life wisdom and stories are addictive since I just love to learn. I understand that one can learn from fiction too but I just need it to be more straight forward in a non-fiction genre.

When showing houses I want to be ready for a teaching sharing moment. I learn so much from people while in the process and experience joy when individuals purchase their first castle (home) due to my knowledge or advice. You've heard the saying a man's home is his castle. My version is your home is your castle. I wasn't born with this knowledge, I read, I listen and I practice what I have learned daily.

In Suze Orman's book The Courage to be Rich she writes a great chapter called Seeking Shelter. I wish I could afford an unlimited amount of copies to give everyone I meet but I realize a better way to share this knowledge and bask in many other talented financial people is to visit your local public library. Yes that is right.Your local library is one of your biggest fans and friend for future knowledge in many subjects.

Inside your local public library is a wellspring of knowledge and community minded people to help you. Therefore with that in mind I am starting in November ongoing seminars called...get ready for it. - "HOW TO BUY YOUR FIRST CASTLE"

The first seminar is on November 19th at the Saint John Free Public Library from 7 - 8pm. I will be there to teach the skills to assist you in purchasing your first home, or for me it is your castle. Other related Real Estate industry professionals are dropping by as well during these monthly get together s, they are:
Cindy McFarland -from Home Loans Canada. 647 1164
Susan Lackie - Mobile Specialists from TD Canada Trust.650 2241
Leah Straight -from The Investors Group 632 8930

The day of our first seminar the library will be hosting a reading by first time author, Dawn MacInnis. Dawn won Trinity Enterprise Inc. pitch the publisher contest, with the book titled "MY FIRST HOUSE" A single girls journey.

Dawn doesn't mix words and if you want to hear the real deal come and meet Dawn at 7 pm at the Saint John Free Public Library on Thursday November 19th from 7- 8 pm.

Each month I will rotate to each library in and around the Saint John area. As much as possible I will invite guests from various industry sectors of the Real Estate industry. If you are part of our industry please contact me as you may want to join us and share your expertise. Coffee and a light snack will be provided.
