Lake Sinclair: we love it, we know it, & we sell it

I have loved my daughter for more than 30 years even though she isn't quite 30 years old yet.  I believe my grandson looks a lot like his daddy, but today when I saw a photo of him sleeping yesterday it reminded me a photo of his mama sleeping the day I brought her home from the hospital. He has ...

When was the last time you bought property? When I started in this business 26 years ago all agents and brokers worked for the seller and buyers were really just on their own. But in Georgia that legally changed in 1994 when BRETTA was introduced. BRETTA stands for Brokerage Relationships in Real...

It was a tough day today.  When I showed my Donald the long list of calls on my cell phone today it took me 5 minutes to keep scrolling through the pages.  A new listing photo appointment.  A new REO photo fact finding mission (oh it was SO bad) A long call with my new website guy. A couple of di...

I recall with fondness the client who first did a review without me asking. I also fully admit that I was a little nervous when I found said client had posted said review BEFORE closing.  I never ever pick up a lockbox or sign before closing for fear of jinxing the deal.  I'd certainly never ever...

My Donald has a saying about this and it's "Perfect practice makes perfect"But what happens if you practice wrong? "Practice makes perfect" can be an accurate phrase because the more you do something, you build up that procedural memory and your brain can quickly instruct your muscles to carry it...

I honestly don't remember the date, which is highly unusual for me.  What I do remember is I was driving home from dinner out and my phone rang.  And when I answered the young woman was sort of taken aback that I answered my phone after 7 pm.  I fondly have always referred to her as Connecticut. ...

House sits of fee simple property, but th...

This is an old photo, it was one of those "memories" that showed up on my Facebook today. It's a memory that made me cry.  I still have that sweet puppy and he's healthy and fine.  The tears came as I remembered where that scar on my foot came from.  I was at my aunt's house and we made adult ble...

The property needs some TLC and repairs, but has solid bones and is priced to sell.  It's a 4 Bedroom, 2 Bath with living room and den, nice cleared back yard on half an acre lot.  Just 40 minutes to the Shoppes at River Crossing.  This is a must see for investors and anyone needing very a very a...

First, we seem very on pace with last January at the mid month point and since the majority of real estate closings happen the last week of the month I feel like we'll surpass the total number of sales of 14 for last year in January.  We'll be down from December I suspect, but that's pretty typic...
