Dear Buyers, Welcome to the DC Metro Area housing market. It is exciting and more than a little nerve wracking. You have read all the newspaper reports, so you know that prices are soft, there is lots of inventory, and interest rates are fabulous. The affordability index is about as good as it ha...

 If you have been in business longer than maybe a year, you know the lesson in this blog already, but if you are a newbie to real estate - take heart, and persevere. On Monday I got a phone call from a new client who was coming from Florida to DC to look at property on behalf of his boss for the ...

At least until last night. I posted a blog about the Lincoln Memorial and some memories of growing up in DC because I wanted to share a little bit of information about our nation's capital as  home to lots of people besides the politicians.  I love getting responses from all the Active Rainers ou...

Welcome to Washington, which is not just home to Presidents and other politicians, but regular people too. Even if you aren't planning a trip to DC any time soon, I would like to share a little of my hometown. Maybe you will come to Washington some time - and I hope you look me up! It's a great c...

Where the Snow Stops! I am so lucky because I have the greatest job in the world and I love it too. I have a job which lets me balance my work responsibilities (most of the time) and enjoy my family (almost always). This weekend I was in Montclair and Englewood, New Jersey, for my daughter's hock...

As we got close to New Year's, someone suggested a bucket list of 10 areas to expand our efforts - one of course was expireds. I don't think I can successfully take on 10 new areas to focus on at once, but I would like to tackle a few new niches - improving my presence in my first geographical fa...

Last week I asked what everyone was reading or could recommend of the many real estate books we have all bought.  Hands down the book was Shift by Gary Keller.  I have now bought another book! And I even plan on reading it as soon as I read one by Danielle Kennedy that I already had. One of my go...
