Moving can be one of the biggest physical projects we take on in our entire lives. The mere thought of it can be daunting knowing simply the sheer amount of stuff we accumulate over the years. But in most cases the effort is worth it, as a new home begins a new chapter in our lives. As the saying goes, "Chance favors the prepared mind" and moving is no different. So here is a list of useful links that will serve as reminders of things that have to be taken care of, or are just helpful. Happy moving!

Change of Address

The post office will forward all your first class mail for 12 months, and second-class mail for 60 days. However after this point your mail will be returned to the sender, so it's best to take care of your change of address sooner than later. You can change your address by completing this online form.

Magazines will also only be forwarded for 60 days. To have your address changed for your magazines check out this page.

If you'd rather, you can also visit your local post office and get change of address notification postcards known as PS Form 3576.

The US Postal Service has put together some useful information of their own that can be of some help.

Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles

The law requires that a person notify the DMV within 30 days of moving. This can be done by changing it online htmor by downloading a copy of the address change form and mailing the completed form to: 1905 Lana Ave NE, Salem, OR 97314. When you change your address, a sticker is mailed to you to place over the old address on your driver license or ID card.

Real Estate Tips
Investment Real Estate >The Right Time to Buy

Are you waiting for "just the right time" to get into the real estate market? The signs indicate that there is no time like the present. Interest rates are still comparatively low and buyers are shopping for new and second homes in great numbers.

Vacation homes are very popular for investment purposes and personal enjoyment. You can use your vacation home as a getaway property now, and by the time you retire you will have paid a significant amount on the loan. If you live in a vacation home for 14 days a year or less, you can take depreciation on it.

Another important benefit is that tax deductions in the form of interest and property taxes help to offset the cost of paying for a second home. If the debt does not exceed $1 million, mortgage interest payments on principal residences and second or vacation homes are fully deductible for tax purposes.

Don't waste valuable time while interest rates creep upwards -- all you need is the right real estate agent to guide you!
