Five Star Mortgage Professional Award

VANCOUVER, BC, February 22, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Five Star Professionals research team contacted over 48,800 households in the Vancouver area to identify residents who have worked with a mortgage professional in the past 8 months. These were residents who purchased a home in Vancouver between September 2011 and May 2012. The respondents evaluated candidates against 5 key objective criteria including customer service, integrity and overall experience. Other criteria included applicable licensing and favorable regulatory history.


After collecting completed surveys (by phone, email and online), Five Star Professional evaluates each candidate for completeness, licensing and to eliminate self-nomination. Self-nominations for this award are not accepted. They are then given a score for favorable and unfavorable evaluations. From there, winners are determined.

"This came totally out of the blue," comments Jared Dreyer, President Dreyer Group Mortgages, "we're thrilled and honored by this award primarily because it comes directly from client feedback." Dreyer continues, "I understand that there are 13 other winners and congratulate each of them."

The 14 Winners of 2013 will be published in the March issues of Vancouver Magazine and Western Living.

Habits are the Stairway to a Richer Life

Habits are the Stairway to a Richer Life


by Napoleon Hill

You can see that an oak tree grows from an acorn, always, and a pine tree grows from the seed of its ancestor. And you know that Nature never makes a mistake and grows a pine tree from an acorn, nor an oak tree from the seed of a pine.

There are facts you can see. But do you recognize that they do not “just happen” by chance – something has to make them happen! That something is the power which fixes habits and makes them permanent. Man is the only creature which the Creator permits the privilege of fixing his own habits to suit his own desires.

We are ruled by habits, all of us! Our habits are fastened upon us by repetition of our thoughts and acts. Therefore we can control our earthly destinies and our way of living only to the extent that we control our thoughts. We must direct them to form the sort of habits we need to serve as our road map to guide our lives. Good habits which lead to success can be ordered and used by any individual. Bad habits can be broken and replaced by good ones at will by anyone.

Man Has Control

The habits of every living creature except man are fixed by what we call “instinct.” This places them under limitations from which they cannot escape.

The Creator not only gave men complete, unchallengeable control over the power of thought, but with this gift came the means of possessing thought power and directing it to any desired end.

The Creator has also given man another privilege whereby thoughts are made to clothe themselves in their physical likeness and equivalent.

Here, then, is a profound truth. With it you may open doors to wisdom and live an ordered life, you will be able to control those factors necessary to your success.

The rewards available to the person who takes possession of his own mind power and directs it to definite ends of his own choice are great in number. But penalties for not doing so are equally great in number.

Economic Highlights

Economic Highlights
Canada

• The Canadian labour market lost 22,000 net jobs in January and the unemployment rate edged down to 7.0%. January’s poor result should be seen as more of a pay-back for the outsized job gains seen in late 2012 when economic growth slowed. Job creation should come in around 10,000-20,000 in the next few months in a modest growth environment

• At 160,600 units in January, housing starts came in at their lowest level since July 2009, down 18.5%. The sharp January decline is not that surprising following what is believed to have been an unsustainable pace of construction in 2012. Given the current cooling of the housing market in general, Canadians should not look to residential construction as a source of strength moving forward in 2013.

• While Canada’s international trade deficit narrowed in December to $0.9 billion, both exports (-0.9%) and imports (-2.8%) declined, painting a discouraging picture of Canada’s economy at the end of 2012. Although December’s slip is hardly uplifting, export growth should bounce back in 2013 matching increased demand from the U.S.

United States

• The U.S. trade deficit narrowed to $38.5 billion in December – its smallest level in three-years.

• Stronger-than-expected exports and weaker-than-expected imports will result in an upward revision to fourth quarter GDP growth when the second estimate comes out at the end of this month. We expect real GDP to have grown by 0.5% (annualized) rather than the 0.1% contraction initially reported.

• With the strong hand-off at the end of 2012, U.S. exports are likely to rebound in the first quarter of this year. Firmed by trade, but held back by higher taxes, we expect real GDP growth to improve to 2.0% (annualized) in Q1 2013.
