Congratulations to the first Recipient of the Mari Montgomery Realty Music Therapy Scholarship, Mallory Conner! Yay for Mallory!!  She is very talented and a lot of fun!  (and a good sport, too) Check out this silly photo of us "funning" the day we got together.  Mallory visited Mari Montgomery Realty recently to meet and chat for a bit.  I cannot wait to hear her sing.  She is a really interesting and bright young woman.  She has great vision too and a giving spirit.  She and some of her Music Therapy classmates will be headed overseas this spring during spring break, to help establish a Music Therapy Department in a University that will really benefit from their assistance. After graduation, Mallory wants to use her degree to work with children, older folks, or any folks in between.   Music Therapy is an important, effective and grossly under implemented way to promote healing, growth, comfort, and all important coping skills... read full post »

Our legislative branch of government speaks in circles at best mos of the time.  It's not a surprise that so much confusion surrounds this issue. Re: OBAMA-CARE as it pertains to the new Real Estate Tax that will become effective in 2013.  Although this is a piece of legislation from March 30, 2010, it just made it to my email box the other day from a client. I bet you've received it too. My clients wrote to me to ask, "Mari, is this true??" Basically, the email that is circulating says that starting in 2013 a 3.8% tax will be levied on ALL Real Estate transactions. What is the truth? For the answer, I went directly to the "Public Law 111-152 H R. 4872" dated March 30, 2010. Please, take a look for yourselves.... PUBLIC LAW 111-152 [H.R. 4872] MAR. 30, 2010 HEALTH CARE AND EDUCATION RECONCILIATION ACT OF 2010 Sec. 1402. UNEARNED INCOME MEDICARE CONTRIBUTION.
