real estate: Coffee Cup Wisdom - 01/29/09 04:11 PM
I love my coffee.  Straight up black at home and work, but when I'm out with friends, meeting clients, or just wanting a break, it's a grande Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks - with whip!
One of my favorite things to do is read the little "The Way I See It" quotes on the sides of the cup.  A while back they "decided" they were going back to the original look and I thought the quotes were gone forever - tragedy!  But no, at this point at least our local Starbucks on Pacific Blvd. at the Fred Meyer is back to having … (3 comments)

real estate: A few more ways to boost your home's showmanship... - 01/08/09 06:34 PM
So yesterday, I posted a few easy tricks to make your home show & present itself better in this current market.  Today, I thought I'd talk a bit about some ways to make it better that might cost a little more and/or take a bit more time.
Clean the carpets.  Really, this isn't that expensive of an item (depending on the size of your house) but it can make a night & day difference in how your home shows.  Think about it, if you were buying a home, wouldn't you want to walk into one that looked & smelled super-clean?  If … (1 comments)

real estate: The winter chill doesn't have to affect the sale of your home - 12/17/08 03:00 PM

1. Check the entry.  When people come to view your home, you don't want them to have to battle piles of snow or icy sidewalks.  Take a shovel & clear a path, or throw some rock salt out to melt the steps.  The last thing you need is … (1 comments)

real estate: My car ATE me! - 11/14/08 04:22 PM
No seriously, it did. 
On Wednesday, I was out on a "normal" broker tour day, driving around and looking at different homes so I can keep up on the current "homes for sale" inventory.  It was at the last house that I had my problem - I couldn't open the door!  Not the passenger door or anything easy.  It was my driver's side door.  I was faced with the option to either A: climb over the console - mountain goat style - and exit out the passenger door, OR B: roll down the window & exit "Daisy Duke" style.  For the record, neither … (2 comments)
