When looking for a Waukesha County real estate agent one of the most important thing you want to establish is that the agent can utilize their time management correctly. How is that you say? Well, lets look at some things that are important and some things that are crucial. When you hire an agent you first of all would expect that agent to return your calls.

 Often I make reference to many of all the great things one can do in the Kettle Moraine area. It was not too long ago someone asked "Hey Tom Braatz, what is a Kettle Moraine?" Well it's not so much what is it, but also where it is. By definition, per Wikipedia  "A moraine is any glacially formed accumulation of unconsolidated glacial debris (soil and rock) which can occur in currently glaciated and formerly glaciated regions, such as those areas acted upon by a past ice age. This debris may have been plucked off the valley floor as a glacier advanced or it may have fallen off the valley walls as a result of frost wedging. Moraines may be composed of debris ranging in size from silt-like glacial flour to large boulders. The debris is typically sub-angular to rounded in shape. Moraines m...

In the Waukesha County real estate market there are lot of homes and properties for sale in the City of Waukesha , and there are a lot of buyers out looking at homes. With the amazing selection of homes, and the outstanding rates, terms, as well as the credits the  buyer may qualify for I scratch my head and wonder why they are not out in droves. I used to tell my son he was getting a time out when he was naughty but time outs can apply to many things. When we tried too hard, worked too hard, cared too hard, and our bodies just decided it was giving itself a time out. Like the buyers out there taking time outs we can all learn by giving ourselves a time out. I have always had a fascinations with sunsets.    Tom Braatz    Looking for Waukesha County  real estate agents? Like to know what...

In the Waukesha County Real Estate market someone recently asked me "How can you always give that dog Lars of yours center stage and why do think the world of that dog so much,you do everything with that dog? You think he's your best friend or something." It only took a moment and I politely replied "You don't have a dog, do you?" I had a chance to talk with my friend Kristin Johnston Re/Max  who I have the pleasure of working with. The great thing about Kristin is when you know you need help with something you are going to get help from someone that is always going to accomplish the job. Point-Blank, Period, next project, get it done attitude. I was thinking about attitudes pretty much all morning and after talking to Kristin it hit me like a lead balloon. I was thinking about time man...

We live in hard times these days. It seems like everywhere you look these days you see signs of amazing endurance, astonishing stories of human achievement when faced with hardship, and wonderful examples of compassion and caring by people that resulted in a universal sign of reassurance; a smile. Success is something that just does not come easy without sacrifice, commitment, and a true sense of direction and conviction to ones values and personal integrity. I was taught really early in life the meaning of respect. When I would get out of hand my grandmother would say to my grandfather 'Luke, Tombo needs to have a talk with you after dinner out in the garage." Nothing ever happened in that garage but it sure was a long walk out there. When we did make it to the garage my grandfather wo...

 In a day and an age when we work hard, and I mean really hard, why is it that we have to shake our heads in disbelief, and wonder what it takes to get others on the same page? Hence, there still are times in the Waukesha County Real estate market that I see the emergence of the Proverbial Dog and Pony Show. A few examples: 1.) I go and reconfirm my appointment an hour away. "Now I am on my way and it's my intention to list your property. Is that your intention as well?" I get there and no one there. I shake my head. I get a hold of the seller later that day and they say "Something came up, can we make it another time?" No, we cant! Sellers; Waukesha County real estate brokers and Waukesha County real estate agents want nothing more than to see you at a closing in Waukesha County,or any...

It is hard to believe it has been 65 days since a large coalition of soldiers landed on that beach in Normandy. As the Waukesha County Real estatemarket goes about it's daily activity I will take time out to remember all those brave people that combined to achieve a turning point in WWII. June 6th,1944, was when 160,000 allied troops landed along a 50 mile stretch of coastline to fight Nazi Germany on the beaches of Normandy, France. General Dwight D. Eisenhower said "we will accept nothing less than full victory." More than 9,000 allied soldiers were killed or wounded in the D-Day operation, however more than 100,000 marched their way across Europe to defeat Hitler.The Invasion of Normandy was the invasion and establishment of Allied forces in Normandy, France, during Operation Overlor...

I have had the chance to talk to a number of people lately that are pretty excited about purchasing a home, and I tell them that I am hard pressed to think of a better time to buy a home. If they are first time buyers it possibly gets that much sweeter than the tremendous selection, the awesome prices, and the phenomenal rates. They now can have a tax credit of $8,000 that does not have to be payed back. First time buyers need to act fast and have their transaction closed by December 1st, of 2009. To know more about this program send us an email at tom@tombraatz.com, or better yet go to www.buyingvip.com and start looking for listings. If you have ever though of buying a home, and are a first time buyer you are going to really enjoy everything that is looking in your favor. Really, call...
