Well, Lance Mackey won the Iditarod for the third year in a row, coming in to Nome at 11:30am yesterday morning with 15 dogs! The other racers are now starting to arrive. I believe I am going to ask my husband for a trip to Nome one year for our anniversary. Wouldn't that be an amazing anniversary. We will see.
Neal Fried was wonderful, as usual, and the Palmer Chamber meeting was packed. With great food catered by Karen at Alaska Garden Gate B & B and Neal, it is probably one of the most well attended meetings of the year. I highly recommend hearing Neal when you can and staying at Karen's B & B whenever possible. It is a wonderful place with great food.
Interest rates stayed low yesterday. Just about 5% on most loans. I am showing lots of homes this week to potential buyers. Time to get out there and take advantage of the beautiful sunshine and see some homes.
For first time home buyers: Not only can you get an $8000 tax credit, if you buy or have built a 5*plus energy rated home you can reserve funds from Alaska Housing Finance Corp for a $7500 in the form of a check about 4 weeks after closing. That, along with the interest rates makes it a super time for first time home buyers. Call me or email me for more information!
