Our blog is about keeping builders with growing inventories that are being beaten on by the banks from stepping in it.The sole purpose is to have a place to tell your story and to read those of others. We do not want to bash, but to make a place to see there are others out there. Share the stories and methods that worked and ones that brought on more headaches….the ones that did not. We have lived through some pretty tough scrapes by holding strong. Not wasting precious resources by fighting the institution or defending the act of not paying our obligations, but by showing the aggressors that this is not a market that any one builder or person caused. Showing them that we did not cause this and that we share the problem with the banks. It is up to them to notice that we are not going to just roll over because they beat on us. Stand tall, help your brothers stand tall, and for Petes sake, when they take swings at you, don’t just take it. Push Back.Post your story under one of the topics and share your story, you can remain anonymous but please, take the survey, share some of the tools that worked for you to keep alive.

Collateral Damage.....

From: XXX XXXX [mailto:XXXXX@XXXXtitle.XXXXX.com]On Behalf Of XXXX XXXXX Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2008 5:27 PM To: ME : A Message from XXXX Formerly w/ XXXXXX Title & Escrow
Good afternoon,
As some of you are probably aware by now, XXXXX Title & Escrow has decided to cease operations in the Portland Metro area. This came as sudden and unfortunate news to us today. The escrow staff is staying on to complete all files, and will be done by August 29th. The sales and marketing team was officially given the boot today.
For those clients that I have met and worked with over the last couple years, I wanted to let you know that I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know each of you and hope to keep in touch. Below is my contact info. If you know of any Web 2.0/Social Media Marketing opportunities in the marketplace, let me know. I would appreciate it greatly.
Take care,

XXXX
