Last week the temperature dipped to the single digits and the wind was whipping I had a bad turnout at my open houses. This week the temperature was around 50 and raining like mad. I had two open houses with no turn out. Why does the bad weather fall on Sundays? I'm still a firm believer of o...

When I go on listing appointments I frequently get asked when dose the spring market start? When I started selling real estate, February always had the highest turn out for open houses. So if you have clients waiting to list, they may miss the boat. I never had like the idea of waiting to list...

Two days ago I had a closing 30 miles form the office. 32 out and the weather was changing between rain and ice-rain. Cars were in the ditches and tow truck lights were flashing every other mile. My clients happy we closed but what an ordeal. It's amazing what we'll go through to close a deal.

The way the local news was talking this last night and this morning, I was expecting the roads to be hideous. I will say cars were slipping here and there but in my opinion, not so bad. The snow is still coming down and what a great day to take those snow pics for your listings. I guess for th...

Today I went on a listing appointment. I worked hard like I always do, did my home work and I had on my game face. The presentation went smooth with not one objection. Then it was time for the price I was sure I was going to get my first objection. Nope, no objections, they hired me. That wa...
