This is an article aimed at helping buyers understand some
tricks of the trade when it comes to negotiation. This is both
for buyers working with real estate agents, and those who choose

points of negotiation and help them feel empowered throughout
the process. I'm seeking several real estate experts who can

QUESTIONS - What are some key things buyers can negotiate during
the sale process? (We've heard closing costs, repair work,
commissions can all be up for discussion, is that true?) - What
should buyers look for when touring a house that might lead them
to better negotiate the price? What home qualities will lower
its value (ie. water damage, old carpeting, old appliances,
creaking floors-- are these legitimate?) - How does the
negotiation process work and when does it start? - How can
buyers use comps to better negotiate a price? What are some key
numbers buyers should be armed with to have an effective
negotiation (ie, price per sq. foot compared to other homes in
the area, acreage, days on market etc.) - How important are the
"days on market"? Should a house that's been on longer be easier
to negotiate? - Can you speak a bit more to buyers and sellers
markets and how this will affect negotiations for a buyer? - Any
final bit of advice for buyers looking to negotiate on the price
of a home?

Why aren't more homeowners pursuing a refi of their government
loans? This story will explore why government/low-doc/streamline
refinance loans aren't as popular as conventional refinances,
especially with rates so low. Note that I can only accept
full-sentence written responses (which I can use as quotes) for
this article. My deadline for written answers to these questions
is noon central, Monday, Aug. 17.
QUESTIONS: 1. What is a streamline/low-doc refinance loan vs. a
conventional refinance loan? 2. Government loans appear more
popular than ever, but homeowners with government loans aren't
refinancing (e.g., June's Ellie Mae origination report shows FHA
loan activity was only 15% refi, 21% refi for VA, vs. 68% refi
activity for conventional loans). What factors are behind this
trend? Are they simply not aware of the streamline option? 3.
Briefly describe each type of streamline refi and its pros and
cons: (a) FHA streamline; (b) VA streamline; (c) USDA
streamline. 4. Has COVID-19 affected the streamline refi
process? Are there more hoops these borrowers have to jump
through now? 5. Please describe how a borrower with a government
loan can and should refinance that loan (step by step) and
what's involved. 6. Any other thoughts, tips or suggestions on
this topic? 7. What is your full name, title, company,
city/state location, and email address?

Hello-I'm eager to speak with real people about brand loyalty at
the grocery store. Are you always a Skippy person so forget
about Jif? Do you love Fage yogurt and never buy Chobani? We're
eager to hear more. Is it taste, nostalgia, personal preference
that drives your choices? Please let me know!

Media Outlet: HR Daily Advisor
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 14 August
Query:
A lot of people are working from home these days and many are
enjoying the shift. Employers, too, are finding some key
benefits in remote work and many may decide to continue even
after the pandemic subsides.
But working from home raises the potential for data security and
confidentiality risks, especially since many employees share
their homes -- and sometimes their office equipment -- with
others.
I'm interested in hearing from HR and L&D professionals about
what steps they're taking to train employees about these risks
to ensure data security. What training methods are you using?
What content do you provide? How often do you provide the
training? How do you monitor adherence?
Requirements:
Please send your detailed response via email along with
your/your source's name/title/company/location.
