MSN Real Estate Offers YET ANOTHER Idiotic "Suggestion" - 12:12 PM
MSN Real Estate Offers ANOTHER Idiotic "Suggestion"
Out of curiosity I am constantly clicking on real estate stories found scrolling on the headline cubicles running across MSN and Yahoo!  I read them because most of them are full of so much HOOEY!
Today I read another "what you need to be doing" article written by Melinda Fulmer:  "What You Should Know Before Bidding on that House."
In "Googling" Melinda Fulmer, I could not discern if she's a real estate agent or a Realtor®
SIDE NOTE:  A major pet peeve of mine are real estate articles written by people who are NOT real … (8 comments)

One Shoe On and One Shoe Off - Speechless Sundays - 11:34 PM
One Shoe On and One Shoe Off - Speechless Sundays
 

 
My little one is not a fan of shoes.  I'm afraid he comes by it naturally as I feel the same way.  If there's any choice, why would I want to wear shoes.  They're just . . . confining.
Or, maybe it's just that we go grow up at the beach, and you get use to going barefoot.

My new (old) closing gifts - 05:09 AM
    
Back in 2005, I was introduced to the Chautaqua Winery in Defuniak Springs, Florida by our Office Manager. She would order cases of their Muscadine Wine and have custom labels made with her contact information. I started doing this also and used them as closing gifts. They made for a very unique gift and I received a lot of positive feedback about the label.
I recently decided to bring back this marketing tool and went to the winery and picked up two cases of the red wine and one case of the white. The friendly staff there pulled up … (10 comments)

Inspired by "Midnight in Paris" - 07:31 PM


 
Recently, my book group read The Paris Wife, Paula McLain's novel about Earnest Hemingway's first wife, Hadley, and their time in Paris.  We also read The Sun Also Rises, which Hemingway wrote during that period.  
Friday, my next door neighbor brought over her DVD of Midnight in Paris, and we watched it with a third book buddie.  The scenes of Paris are just amazing, and made me want to start packing now for my September trip.  Since I do have to wait a few days, I checked into I-Photo and revisited some of the shots I took … (12 comments)

This Is My 5th Anniversary on Active Rain - 08:04 PM
On June 10th, 2007 I wrote my very first post on Active Rain, The Joys of Home Ownership.  I just took a look at it, and there is this adorable picture of Willie the Labradoodle as a six month old puppy who saved us from mayhem by alerting me to a pipe burst (right over his crate).  And after I posted it, something happened!  Comments!  The first was from Crofton, Maryland's Margaret Woda, who has since become a great friend.
This was the first step down a path of learning, new friendships and addiction.
The learning has been amazing.  It's … (58 comments)

Sometimes We Need a Yard Remodel - 11:12 PM

Hit a Home Run In Your Real Estate Business - 09:49 PM
Hit a home run in your real estate business. Lessons we can learn from the great baseball legend Babe Ruth. 
Our youngest son is now nine years old and is the starting pitcher on his baseball team. He loves baseball. He loves to play baseball, learn about the game and study the masters of the game. He just finished reading Babe Ruth's biography to me. 
I began thinking about all that Babe Ruth had gone through and his humble beginnings and then who he became as a baseball legend. There is so much that we as real estate brokers and agents … (47 comments)
