Do You Need A Realtor When Working With A New Home Builder
Some may think they don’t really need a Realtor® when working with a new home builder.  The truth is you really should use a professional Realtor®.  Builders hire their own personnel who happen to be real estate agents and not always Realtors.  Their sales people represent guess who...the builder.  You need your own representation to assist you in making certain the custom or planned community home builder meets all contract obligations, time-lines and fulfills promises.  You want to be assured short cuts are not taken, inspections are completed and … (60 comments)

So what's in a name like John McCormack anyway?
Over the past 50+ years I have enjoyed the same name, yes the same one my parents decided to crown me with although from what I understand it took a few days after delivery to come up with such a unique name like “John”.  I like my name just fine and have no plans on changing it although my wife does call me Mac and my AR friends call me Q.  John is not often misspelled although I have seen is spelled J.O.N maybe for those that didn't fare so well … (70 comments)

This last week I discovered that I have yet another hat to proudly sport in my collection of real estate hats.  I now have a Pest Control Hat!  Indeed I discovered this new hat and talent while taking a second peek at a home with my awesome clients who recently put the home under contract.  The home is vacant and has been for a good while.  During this visit I noticed a “Snap Tail” Lizard adorning the wood floors of the family room.  How how this fierce lizard made his way into the home is beyond me but I do know … (33 comments)

After working with Tage and Celeste for almost four years they closed on their Rio Rancho NM dream home.  It wasn’t an easy move for them leaving friends, jobs and selling their home in New York to relocate in NM.  I checked the mailbox much to my surprise was a handwritten card with a gift card to an upscale Albuquerque restaurant.   Talk about a WOW moment as a Realtor® !  I don't like tooting my own horn but their words mean to much to keep to myself.  Check it out for yourself.
