| Valued Friends & Clients, |
 |
Welcome to the first issue of my new, monthly e-mail newsletter! I am very excited to be sending this to you, as it has been several months in development. Hopefully, you will find the information here to be interesting or helpful or both.
I will try to keep you informed on Desert Real Estate activity, especially during this changing market environment. Since there has been so much negative media recently, I will do my best to bring you factual information, and my perspective on the local Real Estate climate.
This e-mail newsletter will also allow you to navigate to my website, where you will find more real estate content and information. At BruceBlomgren.com you can view all of my current listings, search all local homes for sale at the Desert Area Multiple Listing Service (MLS) or find a list of reliable local resources. This is one of the very best independent Realtor websites I have seen, and I am constantly looking for ways to improve it.
Please feel free to give me your feedback. If you have any friends who might enjoy receiving my newsletter, please pass this along.
And, as always, Thank You for your confidence and for being a part of my business!
Sincerely,
Bruce |

| How Long Should You Save Records |
 |
| Is record keeping taking over your life? Are you keeping every single bill, tax return, insurance invoice, medical documentation, contract and even the 15 year old warranty for the toaster oven that you sold at the yard sale ten years ago? If you answered “yes”, you are not alone. Many people are not sure how long financial records retention should last, especially tax records. We can help you establish a document retention policy that works! |

"Bruce's personal knowledge and vast experience in the greater Indian Wells Real Estate Market were a great asset. But his personal integrity and unqualified professional approach to all aspects of the representation process had to be of even greater importance and value."
