beaufort south carolina: Google Thinks My Name is Jeremy - 10/04/10 05:36 PM
I may have been a little more than fashionably late to the Google Voice party; however, just when I think it is safe to announce my arrival, I speak.
Beaming with pure southern pride, I let all my contacts know that I joined the popular kids. I am now fully equipped with the ever powerful Google Voice. I will be able to prioritize my calls, answer with gazelle like speed, and impress everyone around me with my Googleness.
Just one little problem. Google DOES NOT speak Southern. Every poor soul that calls me and leaves a message is completely unaware at … (18 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Agents, Give Substance to Slogan! - 09/21/10 09:42 AM
The grand debate in which occurs in most shopping isles, local pharmacies, even while trying on blue jeans is no stranger to real estate professionals. From receiving our coveted license along with a certificate of achievement to several years of trudging through the trenches, we are constantly reminded to brand. Catchy slogan, inspirational motto, crisp photos, from websites to wardrobe we are encouraged to package to perfection.
We can even spend oodles of money for someone to package it for us, if we are so inclined. Matter of fact, there are businesses who prey thrive on the perceived knowledge that without … (7 comments)

beaufort south carolina: I Am Supporting Local Farmers, Local Families, Local Charm and I Love IT - 06/22/10 05:20 PM
There are no squeaky wheels, no plastic bags, no National Inquirer or People magazines near the check out counter. No need to dig through poor wilted produce in hopes of finding even one healthy vegetable. You will; however, need sunscreen, comfy shoes, preferably blue skies (not required) and a bucket.
Welcome to Dempsey Farms in Beaufort South Carolina. Where you pick your very own vegetables! I love walking through the seemingly endless rows of gorgeous tomatoes and peppers. Their cantelope is addictive, and don't even think of taking my watermelon.
There is something so simple, so basic, so very amazing … (4 comments)

beaufort south carolina: With The Power of 183,675 - 06/07/10 06:34 AM
In just a few short hours, I will be speaking in front of a prospective client that could possibly ensure the financial stability of my real estate group over the next few years. My presentation is flawless, my answers accurate and current.
Where did such an experienced, successful, well known builder/developer find my team? You got it. My online presentation of my recent new development, Carolina Village led this powerhouse right to my door.
Without Active Rain giving me an avenue to freely market myself as well as my listings, there is no way my community or my name would … (46 comments)

beaufort south carolina: And I Think To Myself.... - 05/18/10 10:07 PM
I see skies of blue, clouds of white, bright blessed days, dark sacred nights, Louis Armstrong must have been to Beaufort, South Carolina.
For the soul that recharges with sunlight and finds saltwater to be the only necessary spa treatment, have you been to Beaufort?
To the eyes that crave the depth of color, to the bare feet that crave warm sand, have you been to Beaufort?
To the restless that long for peace, to the bored who long for inspiration, have you been to Beaufort?
To the … (9 comments)

beaufort south carolina: And Why Bikinis Will Never Have Pockets - 04/25/10 10:03 AM
In real estate, as in life, I often find myself in precarious situations. It seems to be an underlying theme. This I have embraced, accepted, and in many ways perfected. The answer for this condition, syndrome, or curse has alluded me to the point of surrender.
One possible explanation could be that my basic fiber, the very cloth of my being is simply much less endearing than my uncanny ability to survive humiliating, uncomfortable, and even slightly odd social faux pas. Therefore in order to make me somewhat acceptable to the general public, the universe throws me constant curves.
I am … (8 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Bring Your Fishing Pole, Sunscreen and Senses! - 04/02/10 09:30 AM
Yesterday I said, "I quit!". With almost three months of working long grueling hours, I had finally reached my breaking point. It was time to go fishing. I wonder how others handle it? If they aren't as fortunate as I am to hop in a boat and take a short ride to paradise, where do they escape?
I have made it quite clear that I honestly believe there is no place on earth quite like Beautiful Beaufort. Yesterday confirmed that solid belief. Where else can you honestly say that what you leave is as beautiful as where you are wanting to … (13 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Sweeeeeeet! It is Almost That Time OF Year Again! - 02/21/10 03:51 PM
Oh goody goody Ya'll!!!! It is getting that time of year again. I can hardly sit still. The water looks like glass, the birds are swooping and diving, the gators are sunning, and the "bait and tackle" shop is all a buzz!
What's a girl to do???? My first mate (pictured below) can hardly contain himself, as if he can smell the warmer waters rolling in!
Maybe it is the warmth of the sun, or the promise of a soon-to-come Spring, whatever it is, I can't wait!!!!
This is ,of course, my busy season in real estate. I am fortunate enough to … (0 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Last Night Was The Season Opener!!! It is Shrimpin Time Ya'LL - 09/12/09 09:02 AM
Here in the Lowcountry opening night is pretty darn special. There isn't any red carpet, no guest list, and the attire is quite casual.
It is SHRIMP SEASON in Beaufort SC ya'll!
When the tide is just right, the bait is in place, and the No See-ums are swept away by the breeze, there are very few things that can compete for the attention of the faithful.
There is something very simple, very basic about throwing a cast net to catch what most pay a premium to enjoy.
It isn't something just anyone can do, it takes patience and practice. … (9 comments)

beaufort south carolina: A Deep Breath....Beaufort SC Style - 09/08/09 07:22 PM
As most everyone was coming off of a long weekend, I was working what seemed to be my 20th day in a row. Completely exhausted, moody as a female blue crab, and at the end of my frayed rope, I closed my computer, turned off my phone, and headed out to the beautiful waters of Beaufort, South Carolina.
Within minutes the salty air, the warm wind, and the sight of sea grass bending towards the river simply made my problems disappear.
**I took a deep breath, Beaufort style.**
A Boston Whaler carried my four legged best friend, my two legged … (5 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Completely Out of My League With Present Company~ Or Not!? - 07/31/09 09:10 AM
Chance afforded me yet another outstanding opportunity. I had the honor of meeting a gentleman who not only has appeared in FORBES magazine but whose wealth of real estate knowledge is without peer. Over the span of three months we have developed a professional relationship that I am quite certain will change the path of my career tremendously.
As a land speculator, (as he modestly refers to himself) his interest has been directed towards my charming little town. Beaufort is famous mostly for our water aspects; however, our land attracts the attention of the most discerning visionaries. Beaufort is a treasure, and the … (9 comments)

beaufort south carolina: A Little Clarification......Southernese Style - 07/12/09 09:24 AM
It has recently been brought to my attention that my clients don't always know exactly what I am talking about. Apparently I speak "Southernese".
Ya'll, I'm sorry. Or maybe...not. I do live in the South. Beautiful Beaufort South Carolina has many wonderful mysteries, legends, folk tales, and well....it's own way of describing life's little quandaries.
Maybe some clarification is in order.. The following phrases may be heard during your visit to our little pardise:
"Dying Duck Fit"- This is serious business. This will not land you in Beaufort Memorial Hospital although sometimes there may be effects that could possibly lead you right … (20 comments)

beaufort south carolina: From The Clouds, Beaufort Shines - 07/12/09 08:48 AM
I have tippy -toed across the warm sand, sunk sheepishly into the pluff mud, hopped one-legged down the steaming boards of the docks, and flip -flopped shuffled through the tributaries but not until recently have I seen Beaufort from the clouds.
Perspective is everything.
From the bow of a boat I feel powerful and small all at the same time, from the dock I feel content, from the edge of the shore I feel protected, and from underneath the Live Oaks, I feel an overwhelming sense of belonging.
From the clouds looking down, I feel an unmistakable connection … (5 comments)

beaufort south carolina: It is Amazing What a Little Windex Can Do! - 04/07/09 08:24 AM
It is amazing what a little Windex will do, add a few closings, and a couple of Marine Corps Drill Instructor hats and well, what more could a girl possibly ask?
It is early in the day, early in the week, and early in the year. Last year was challenging, with a dash of gloomy, and a sprinkle of "what now".
Looking through clean windows, I can see months full of potential. Beaufort, South Carolina is not only a fairy tale near water but it is also a town full of life, energy, and charm enough to sweep you right … (18 comments)

beaufort south carolina: Tonight, Especially Difficult - 03/20/09 11:43 PM
For those of you who don't know, I lost my best friend about two months ago. Just about every post I ever wrote included him in some way. Since his passing, I have had some okay days and some not so okay days.
Today is a not so okay day. I am opening a new company and I look for him at my feet. His presence was a comfort, a solace, a peace.
I miss him more than I ever thought possible.
For any of you whoever lost a special friend, I am sure you understand.
