Accepted Offer, Now Let's go Buy - OR NOT? - 10/20/10 09:59 PM
Used to be; once you've negotiated an offer on your listing, you'd be in the car with your sellers, now your buyers - on your way to buying a bigger better home. Not so fast....
Explain 'why you should slow down' to your sellers. Explain what CAN go wrong to them and you'll be talking for an hour with them on the multiple possibilities of what COULD go wrong.

Why my listing is not selling, Its a Price War and a Beauty Contest - 10/17/10 04:25 PM
My hope is this blog won't be redundant but instead help someone who has had the same questions as I.
