I've discovered that one of the unexpected benefits of blogging is that it gets me out and about - out of my car and out of my house.  Truth be told, I tend to be a bit of a workaholic and at the end of a long day I'm usually happiest at home - working on my blog of course! But blogging means you...

I was looking through the visits to my blog this morning and discovered something really cool.  Sitemeter shows you the visits to your website and you can click to see the page that brought them there - the google, yahoo, bing search or whatever. Well I clicked on one of the links to see the refe...

And no - it's not a real estate listing!  I stumbled on this video when I was researching real estate websites months ago.  It was actually Ty and Kelly Tompkins website that I discovered - and this video was featured.  Tonight I discovered to my delight that the video was posted on youtube so I ...

Yesterday I went on a history tour of Somerville Massachusetts. It was a fantastic tour - even though I've been selling real estate in the neighborhood for years and lived in the area for many more - I learned so much about the architecture and history of the streets around me. During the tour I...

Hope you can indulge me just a bit ~ but I'm really excited and who better to share my excitement with than a bunch of real estate bloggers - especially since nobody else understands this endeavor that has consumed me. Today was a Red Letter Day.  I hope you can bear with me as I toot my own horn...

I've been a collector all my life.  A lot of my collections are house related. Put a house on something and I'm in.  I collect house banks, vintage real photo postcards of houses, miniature metal buildings, and lots of other things. When I spied this advertising piece in an antiques shop case ye...

I confess - I'm obsessed with my blog.  I can't stop checking the traffic, I want to talk about it at any opportunity (but don't have enough people to talk to about blogging), I monitor my search results positions compulsively, it's the first thing I think about in the morning and the last thing ...
