Yes, there is no football this Sunday.  The Packer's don't play until Monday night.  Caught with a Sunday with nothing to do?  Why not visit me at my OPEN HOUSES! My open houses are as follows: 11:00AM until 12:00PM     3018 Open Gate, Green Bay 12:30PM until  1:30PM      1018 Kenwood, Green Bay ...

For the first time in a long time, there is no Packer game on Sunday.  For the first time in a long time, I'm hoping this will spark an increase in open house attendance.  I like doing open houses.  In the past, they have been very effective for me and I beleive in them.  When sellers balk at an ...

If you are a buyer or thinking of becoming one, here are the five "B's " to follow to make your home buying experience as pleasant and productive as possible: 1.  "Be" on time - agents have scheduled showing appointments based on starting at a specific time.  If you're late, it can throw off the ...

Over the last few days, I've been getting quite a few calls from some of the lenders I use.  They are all asking the same question - What are you seeing out there? As I've mentioned a few times, our market in Green Bay has been fairly steady.  It hasn't been as good as it has been in the past but...

I hope everyone has the chance to experience what I refer to as "happy days".  Today was my newly adopted granddaughter's fourth birthday.  Her party was held in an large, historic home in South Milwaukee.  It was a two and a half hour drive for me one way but I wouldn't have missed it for the wo...

My last transaction was full of ups and downs.  My buyers had everything solid.  The sellers not so much.  The last "down" came when I received a phone call at 12:30AM the next day after closing.  My buyers were in their new home and discovered that the sellers had turned the water off. Upon goin...

Yesterday I received an offer on a vacant piece of land. It would be kind to say the offer was a mess.  The offer was written by a broker (not an agent) from another company for himself personally.  He referenced an addendum that didn't exist and fail to reference one that he wanted included.  He...

I have been receiving a few calls from investors who feel housing prices have almost hit bottom and will begin to reboundin the spring so they are starting to seriously look at properties to buy.   I have one investor who is looking at lower end properties to buy to flip allowing the buyers to us...

It's that time of year.  No, not Thanksgiving.  No, not Christmas.  It's the Chicago Bears vs the Green Bay Packers!  This coming weekend everything in Green Bay will come to a halt on Sunday from noon until about 3:30PM.  The streets of Green Bay will be empty and the bars will be full. Unless y...

You've heard the expression "you make your own luck".  I'm not so sure that's true.  I was reviewing some of my transactions for this past year and found myself saying "boy, I was lucky to get that buyer or  gee I was lucky to get that listing". I know I am a skilled, highly trained, experienced ...
