PostHeaderIcon Log Home Automation Revisited

Last year I authored an article entitled, “Log home automation? Excuse me?”. (
http://www.logcabindirectory.com/articles/home_automation.htm) The article was picked up by scores of blogs and syndicated services and since then I’ve received tons of email asking questions about home automation and the company whose products I mentioned, X-10 (see: http://www.home-automation.us)

First, I will discuss the company; X-10 was a pioneer of online ‘in-your-face’ marketing. Anyone who was aware of X-10 in the early days of the Internet can remember the mind-numbing garish ads this company seemed to have pinned to every website in the universe. Heaven forbid if you opted in to any of their newsletter or advertising solicitations, as you would get blasted daily with offers and eleventh-hour deals.

That company, and the vast majority of regular Internet users learned the hard way how NOT to get involved with such marketing techniques. Companies who practiced these tactics eventually lost the support of their customers, and prospective clients learned to avoid these businesses. I don’t blame X-10 for their unconventional approach to marketing. When the Internet was first made available to business, no one knew what would work or what was needed to attract customers. That was the ‘Wild West” of online marketing. Good companies made some bad mistakes, but eventually most learned that good products promoted properly will yield positive results.

X-10 is a survivor of the “dot-com meltdown” and the early marketing blunders of online promotion. Today, they are a 30+ year-old company offering quality products, with excellent warranties and free shipping to USA addresses (orders over $50). Today they are one of the world’s leading Web retailers and a manufacturer for several lines of best-selling consumer electronics products.

Revisiting Log Home Automation

Home automation is about making things easier and improving convenience; it is about what you want – and when you want it to happen. Home automation is ‘green’ and good for global warming.

Although my primary focus is log homes, what follows pertains to all houses whether they are constructed of log, brick or even manufactured. Home automation is about making things easier and improving convenience; it is about what you want and when you want it to happen. With X-10′s ActiveHome Pro, your imagination is all that is needed to make your home “your automated castle.” Using this system you can program your thermostat to turn on or off to suit your schedule and wake up to a hot pot of coffee, and have your lights turn on or off at preset times.

This electronic brain for your home is managed by a system-control package for Windows PCs, but your computer does not need to stay connected for the system to work after it has been programmed. Once you download your behaviors into the computer interface, you can plug it into almost any electrical outlet in the house and it will run unassisted. The software permits you to program the behavior of any number of devices in your house, and is quite robust, yet easy to use. Set-up of the hardware components is a breeze. Outfit lamps or appliances that you want to control with small inexpensive modules that allow the ActiveHome Pro computer interface to communicate via signals that are broadcast across your home’s electrical wires.

You can even program the system to do tricks using the ActiveHome Pro software. A download plug-in is available from X10 (for $50) that allows modules to be controlled on an “if-then” basis. For example: If it’s past dusk and the motion sensor module detects movement in the living room, then turn on the lights. Or, if you have some programming experience, you can download a free software development kit and write a control program that interfaces with your e-mail.

Your imagination is the only limitation with this home automation system. You can create the mood you want with a push of a button. Produce a romantic atmosphere with dimmed lights, soft music and your aroma lamp, and make it a night to remember. When you come home after dark the system will automatically turn on your lights providing you a safe and visible entry. Ensure a fun and worry free vacation by turning lights on and off at different times, making your house look occupied. When it comes to peace of mind, convenience and comfort are paramount.

Home Automation is ‘Green’

Now you can control your home, get control over your expenses and conserve energy. With a home automation system you can manage countless small tasks that will add up to huge savings of both money and energy. Your smart home can be programmed to turn lights off with the dawning of the day, your television to shut off at night after you fall asleep and your furnace to power down at night or when you are away at work. Managing lighting, heating and air conditioning components and appliances can make a significant impact on your household expenses and contribute to fuel conservation.

Will home automation solve the “global warming” problem? Doubtfully, but any measures we take to reduce energy consumption is good for everyone who inhabits this planet whether they live in a log home or a straw hut. Imagine the impact if fifty-million homes in America turned off their furnace and a couple lights for a few hours every day.

In summary, home automation is not just a toy for affluent geeks, but a reasonable consideration for anyone who owns a home and wants convenience, increased security and to save money and energy. If you are contemplating home automation or security improvements, I recommend you investigate X-10′s ActiveHome Pro system. A starter kit with the software, interface and several modules, remote controls and sensors costs just $100. Additional modules cost between $15 and $50 from X10 and other vendors. ActiveHome Pro was selected as the Editors’ Choice by PC Magazine making it their top pick among all home automation systems!

PostHeaderIcon Does A Fully Automated Home Business Exist?

The short answer is no, in any language. As to the so called 99% automated systems, that’s actually worst because anyone thinks that he can handle 1%. The mind boggling aspect is that the 1% is never defined until you have been sucked in already. The 1% suddenly becomes the 99% and is defined as marketing. Worst of all, in most cases you are left alone with some basic Back Office help like “we will give you all the tools”.

The Good News is that there is a cure for it. We’ll get to this at the end of this Article. There are basically 3 major Dilemmas you are faced with. The first dilemma, I just call it the human factor and that is; We always want more for less. It is a dilemma for both the opportunity seekers as well as the Marketers.

Let’s assume you are looking for an opportunity to make serious money to buy a car, or pay for your University or flat out, become financially independent. Make no mistakes, these are no dreams, they are here for you to grab. Now back to the Dilemma, if you run across an ad that says;

Home Business Opportunity that requires some serious work.

Would you click on it? The average opportunity seeker will not click, period. The above ad is probably as honest as it gets but no one would go for it because it looks like too much work.

The next dilemma is lack of time, lack of focus, lack of action and least but not last, distraction. Everyone seems to be in a hurry, especially on the internet. If you don’t sit down, make a plan of attack, accept some work and get going, you will be back in two years time, reading the same article and still looking for this fully automated system. There is simply no guy out there that does all the work for you and shuffle a Million $ in your bank account. Let’s be serious.

The third dilemma is the inability to separate top programs from empty promises. This is where it gets a little bit more complicated as all of the above factors play a roll.

Due to the large number of offers in cyber space, it definitely helps if you simply use common sense. If the offer is too good to be true, look for tell tales like, testimonials. If you see that reputable internet marketers express their opinion about a particular program, it will give you a fairly good indication. Top marketers will not risk their reputation by joining second rate programs. Also do not fall into little traps like “Last chance” type of offers. You will always find an other chance on the internet. The only time you have missed your last chance is when you are on the way to boot hill. So life is good, feel free, be in charge.

As to the lack of time, lack of focus, lack of action and distraction. Pay attention not to rush to conclusions too fast. I am confident that you have the ability to think rational otherwise you would not be reading this article. Here is a world famous phrase that sums it up; In order to move quickly, you must walk carefully. Apply this on a daily basis and before you know it, you’re on the road to success.

Once you have selected a program that suits your purpose, please stay focused and above all start to act, take things in your own hand. When you are focused and committed, you will find the time you thought you never had. Set priorities, follow through and the distraction will disappear. You must run your own life or someone else will run it for you.

In my opinion it also wise to stop the habit of “More for Less”. Do you really gain anything by down loading 35 free e-books and tons of other stuff? This is part of the distraction and focus problems. Instead go for less but select it to your needs.

As mentioned at the beginning of the Article, the 1% that has turned into 99% is called marketing. There is no other way around, marketing is the breaking point. I repeat, it’s the breaking point. What really beats me is the fact that there are literally millions of books available on the subject. Despite that, it seems that the point did not get across to most up-coming marketers. One of the reasons might be that, article writing, blogging, ezines, one-way links, forums, list building, Google and others, just to name a few, seems to be too abstract. Instead they prefer the blast to nowhere.

The reason why I put marketing last is that it hope it makes an impact on you. Rest assured it is definitely not as complicated as it sounds. All you need is a program that offers easy to follow step by step procedures. This is an other important tell tale when selecting a program.

Check and see if you only get the marketing tools or if a comprehensive step by step procedure is included. This will cut the learning time by ten fold. Contact the helpdesk, ask specific questions, you don’t want to be left on you own.

While the right home-based business models can help in promoting and make your home business succeed, there are some important things you must realize before beginning a business at home.

There are a few disadvantages to working from a home business that even a well-planned model cannot change.

First you must know that there are certain
restrictions for shipping activities and client in
home properties.

These are limited by local zoning ordinances so it
is necessary to check with your localauthority for details on what you can and cannot do from your house.

Also, working at home incorporates a lot of
distractions. There are many domestic commitments that can meddle with your workday.

And if foot traffic is necessary for your business,
your home may not be the number 1 place to impress youpurchasers or your clients.

But if none of these things will put in jeopardy on your business, and then ensure you plan well. Get the best enterprize model for your house business and you will be up and running in virtually no time.

Now if your in a home based business you understand the power of a subscriber list. Whether you do or not is up to you.

…I just want to talk about how you can add small adjustments to what your doing without changing or compromising anything you currently have going!

In the market place you can get opt in pop ups that allow your traffic to join your newsletter. Or you can simply add a capture page to your site. My mentor once told me that “If they won’t opt in to your newsletter they won’t buy!’

<b>”So don’t worry about your conversions dropping!”</b>

2.Setting Up Mini- Automated Businesses

What is automated business- A entity that does all of the selling and relationship building for you. You just need to send it traffic. But most will send direct traffic but I say use it as a back-end source that can yield primary income.

….I add the businesses banners to my site and links in my email system this alone becomes the ultimate plan B.

PostHeaderIcon Florida FHA home loan Below 580 FICO, OK!

Florida homebuyers can qualify for an FHA Loan with A Credit Score below 580 FICO!

If you’re a Florida homebuyer has a credit score below a 580 it might be extremely hard to get a FHA loan in this current lending market. But there are other options for Florida homebuyers when it comes to getting an FHA loan. Even though a FHA loan will insure loans below a 580 credit score the secondary market that buys and sells mortgage paper has set the stage as to what will be bought and sold in this market.

When a Florida FHA home loan is bought and sold in the secondary market, investors set particular guidelines and purchase mortgage backed securities based on statistics. If they notice a segment of Florida FHA loans not performing well on the secondary market they determine which individuals are defaulting on the Florida FHA mortgage eliminate that guideline that is  causing the greatest default. So it’s essentially like watching your own stock portfolios performance. If that particular portfolio of yours is not doing well you sell the stock and purchase stocks that fit into your investment criteria. The FHA loan secondary market works the same way.

Over the last 6 to 7 years Florida FHA loan were being written for all types of Florida mortgage applicants with no minimum credit score requirements. Until recently there was never a minimum credit score requirement for an FHA loan. Most banks are requiring at least middle credit score of 580. There are exceptions to this rule. Some banks will allow a FHA loan to go through with a credit score below a 580 if the bank or mortgage company gets an automated approval. An automated approval is a piece of software that banks use that either says “yes” or “no”. Let’s assume you have a credit score of 578 and your loan file is ran through this software and it says ‘yes”, as long as that particular lender will allow a credit score below a 578 with a automated approval you are good to go.

Some Florida FHA mortgage lenders have internal rules for a FHA loan they will approve as well. So just because you have a credit score below a 580 does not mean all hope is lost for an approval of an FHA Loan.

If you have a credit score below a 580 here are some factors that could possibly help to get an automated approval for an FHA loan.

  • proof of Savings history in IRA, or other savings account
  • 12 months on time rental history
  • No late payments in the last 12 months
  • Low debt to income ratios

These are all good compensating factors that will get your approved for a Florida FHA mortgage low credit scores.

If you have recently been denied for a FHA mortgage loan, get a recent copy of your free credit report and start negotiating down any collections. Most times creditors will settle these collections for less than 50 cents on the dollar. The higher your credit scores are the better terms you will qualify for in applying for a Florida mortgage. Bad credit does not fix it self you can repair your own credit and soon purchase a Florida home using an FHA home loan with only 3.5% down payment.
An FHA Loan can be a great solution for Florida homebuyers in today’s market.  For more information about getting an FHA loan in Miami, Orlando another Florida location contact us today.
