5 Stretches for Anyone Who Works a Desk Job

Research shows that working at a desk all day can have lasting negative affects on your health, unless you are breaking up the time with regular exercise and stretching. We’ve compiled a list of our favorite stretches below to help put you in a good mood, increase flexibility in stiff muscles and boost circulation!

1. Neck Rolls – Relax and lean your head forward. Slowly roll head in a circle one side for 10 seconds. Repeat on other side. Do this three times in each direction.

2. Shoulder Rolls – Raise both shoulders up toward ears, then slowly roll them backward. Repeat, rolling forward. Do this three times in both directions.

3. Upper Back Stretch – Hold your arms out straight in front of you, palms facing down. Lower your head in line with your arms, and round the upper back while looking down toward the floor. Hold for 2 to 3 deep breaths.

4. Torso Stretch – Seated or standing, lace the fingers together and stretch them up towards the ceiling. Take a deep breath as you stretch up as high as you can, then exhale and open the arms, sweeping them back down. Repeat for 8-10 reps.

5. Seated Hip Stretch – While seated, cross the right ankle over the left knee and sit up nice and tall. Gently lean forward, keeping the back straight and reaching out with the torso until you feel a stretch in the right glute and hip. Press down on the right knee to deepen the stretch. Hold for 10-30 seconds and repeat on the other side.

Partial Government Shutdown – What it Means for Real Estate

At midnight on December 21st, 2018, there was a partial government shut down, due to lawmakers failing to pass short-term budget legislation. The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) has been in consistent communication with congress and it’s leaders who are working with the White House, in order to clearly communicate the importance and critical need to keep these programs running smoothly in communities that depend on them so greatly.

Now the question: How does this change affect real estate businesses and our clients involved in transactions? It can affect it in three different ways…

The first, you could face delays when attempting to attain tax information from the IRS. Should the need arise, transactions could face delays due to offices being shorthanded from employment cuts of non-essential employees.

Secondly, Flood insurance. At midnight December 21, 2018, The National Flood Insurance Policies’s authority to sell or renew flood insurance policies expired. Existing National Flood Insurance Policies will remain in effect until they expire but new ones will remain inaccessible until the shut down is halted.

Finally, FHA programs could face delays due to furlough’s of non-essential employees in their departments as well, which could lead to loan delays. Mortgages backed by secondary mortgage companies Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac will not be affected, nor will the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
