The Mt Airy community has come together again. They dropped off boxes and boxes of toys for the Marines to distribute this year. Today, Sgt Miller stopped by to make his final pick up of the donations.
Thank you to everyone that stopped by to drop of toys at our Mt Airy Long & Foster Office. Your contribution will make a lot of children happy this year.
Be sure to look out for our banner again next year when we open up to receive toy donations again.

I just received my invitation to the gala event at the Weinberg Center. You know you are going to be asking yourself later “What’s there to do on New Year’s Eve in Frederick?” You know it’s going to happen! Well plan early. This black-tie event not only contributes to your enjoyment for the evening, but also helps the restoration process of the Weinberg Center. Now let me share that invitation with you. And when you make your reservations, tell them you were invited by Bob Carney on FocusOnFrederick.com. (that’s invited not sponsored.)

Ed Rybczynski makes presentation to REALTORS at the Long & Foster Office in Frederick

I want to take a moment to thank Ed Rybczynski for taking the time out of his busy day to make a presentation to the agents in our Long & Foster office.
This man is simple amazing in person as on the screen. Just as you read the compelling and intriguing material in his Title-opoly Blog and also his blog on Active Rain, in person he is even more so captivating. The information that he has securely tucked away in his brain comes out through his heart. He is that passionate about his message.
Mortgage and title fraud should not be taken lightly. As REALTORS®, we have a Fiduciary responsibility to our customers and clients that we will represent their best interest PERIOD. If there are issues that we are not comfortable, it should be know and disclosed to all parties involved. (i.e. passing of checks or money outside of closing) I don’t need to expound on his message…you can read it and feel it for yourself in his blogs.
This was the first time he presented to strictly Real Estate agents, but you would have never known. The information that the agents took away from his presentation will stick with them throughout their career. Part of his presentation was outlined on his post about the issues we are about to see with foreclosures across the states. VERY EYE OPENING!!!
Again, Thank you Ed. I had wished there were more people here today. However mother nature had the last word.
