I woke up this morning to the pounding rain beating on my windows and doors. It was uninspiring and made me want to curl back up in the blankets and pretend it wasn't really happening...again. Then I decided to take action and I gave the Rain the rest of the day off. And you know what? It took about half an hour for the Rain to get the message but as soon as it did, the Sun broke through the clouds and drug the blue sky right behind it. Sometimes it pays to run your day and not let it run you! 04/10/2013

Over the last couple of days there have been a couple of blog articles written about family photos and the "should they stay or should they go" controversy.  Tanya Nouwens writes 3 Common Home Staging Myths which is a really nice article and gives her reason why she likes to leave some photos.  I agreed with her reasons.  I also understand why some agents and staggers might disagree.  It is all up to the seller and their real estate team I suppose.  Then yesterday I came across Donald Tepper's article Family Photos In Staged Homes: Are We Ignoring The Elephant In The Room? Donald's article really got me thinking.  I never think about race or ethnicity in my business.  I see everyone as equal and can't even imagine a buyer not buying a home based on the photos they see or an agent for a ... 10/08/2010
