There is a controversy in real estate as to whose interest is best served with an open house. Seller’s often believe the purpose of an open house is to showcase their home, finding a buyer for it. While real estate agents typically market open houses for the primary purpose of finding fresh buyers leads. The whole idea behind an open house is rather straightforward. The real estate agent and seller agree on a date (or dates – both Saturday and Sunday are common and even a mid-week afternoon can be beneficial) to make the hom... Full story

Another petition gathering effort is also underway to repeal the tax. Recall elections have been an integral part of the...
In a time where every day seems to bring new horrors, when every ugly headline or divisive Oval Office pronouncement makes one want to take a shower in the (vain) hope of washing off the sleaze, there appears a light in the murk, and that light is on page B-4 of yesterday's Village News. The photo of the line of little ballerinas crossing Main Avenue was so incredibly lovely it brought tears to my eyes, and also the realization that there is, after all, good in the world. Thank you photographer Dan Cannizzo for capturing...

Polarization fogs up the course of constructive action and can incite extreme, even deadly, action by "true believers." In addition, "top cover" provided by the political and propaganda classes only...
