NEW LISTING: I'm proud to list this property oat 549 Manor Street. This would make an excellent home for someone looking to build some sweat equity. Or, with some TLC, it would make solid investment.

They killed the CFPB. The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau was set up after the 2008 financial crisis to protect the public from unscrupulous and greedy mortgage lenders.

The Trump admin has announced the closure of the CFPB within the next two to three months.

Soon, we'll see fly by night mortgage lenders offering subprime loans to working class people to buy houses they can't afford. This is a backward step, but did anyone really believe that programs designed to protect regular people are on the chopping block?

Stephen Miran warns of an “urgent” need for cuts — and wants the Fed to go big at its next meeting. Plus, a key housing bill advances; CFPB nears its final days

This came across my path today. Ric was one of my mentors in Real Estate (Bill Puffer being the other) and I miss his place in my world. He was a kind and curious friend.

Puffer Morris Real Estate, Inc. and Ric's Bread

A fond farewell to a wonderful man.

We are honoring Ric Tribble, who passed away late last week. As founder of Ric’s Breads, and more recently, a partner at Puffer Morris Real Estate, Ric always had a kind word and a big smile for everyone he met. He was the first President of Lancaster Central Market Trust and had a love for traveling, good food, and historic architecture. Ric and his wife, Mary, represented Lancaster City with pride and love. He truly left his mark on our city. We will miss Ric and wish Mary and his family peace.

More homes built in '24, but in '25 new housing starts may stall. Another sign that the housing market is rudderless. Another unhappy indicator of tough times ahead.

As the new year sets in, will there be sufficient inventory to make 2025 a strong time for the real

Love what I'm seeing at Splits & Giggles Cafe.

Reasons Splits has brought me joy over the years:

* I've been helping people buy and sell houses on Lemon Street for many years. And no kidding, Splits has played a positive role in every one of those sales;

* I have great admiration for it's proprietor, Dave Brown, with whom I have been pleased to work with in the past;

* We've taken our kids to Splits on the last day of school since my daughters were in Kindergarten; and

* Our daughter Faith worked at Splits & Giggles while in high school, so it holds a special place in our family story.
