listings: The Power of the "Check List"...Listing, closing, buying... - 03/06/10 05:48 AM
I don't know about you...but when I have 10 deals going at the same time the Check List... keeps me on track and moving forward. My internal computer is not what it used to be ...so a friendly reminder on paper and in my sellers/buyers file...keeps me organized and heading toward a successful close. I even share my check list with the sellers/buyers and invite them to help me with the process. This way... if I haven't checked the check list...I am not the only one paying attention.

listings: I listed a squirrel today! - 07/06/09 03:45 PM
Today I had an appointment to list a home in Hyannis at 11:30. Our first meeting. Complete strangers, she and I. Brought together by her attorney.
When I arrived no one answered the door. I walked around the house... thinking that the elderly woman may still be sleeping... When I got back to the front door... she was there... waiting. Hunched from age and illness she attempted to open the door... I let my self in and told her to take her time backing away from the door. Aside from the lovely entrance into an open floor plan ranch with sky … (2 comments)

listings: Contacts make Contracts...Keep in touch! - 05/09/09 07:29 AM
This week I wrote Mother's Day Cards to many women who I have worked with in the last 10 years. Why Not? I am certain my cards were unexpected. I know from the response they were well received. Even the women who are not Mother's by Biology were thrilled to hear from me and to be acknowledged.
You see, I am not a Mother. I believe Mother's Day is for Women everywhere. Women MOTHER others all the time. I sent a card to a Client who is a former NUN and she said... "you are so right, I have been … (1 comments)

listings: Closing ... a state of mind - 05/04/09 05:06 PM
"If you build it, they will come" reminds me of the baseball movie, Field of Dreams. I use that way of thinking when I work with buyers and sellers.... "if you want it, we will close".
I believe in attracting closings. Closing is my state of mind. From closing on negotiating with my husband over which restaurant to eat at or on which house to buy... I am a closer. I like it. I like being decisive. I get a thrill out of the narrowing down process. I lose myself in the discovery. I attract people who aren't so good at … (0 comments)

listings: Action breeds Activity, Intention brings gifts... - 01/15/09 07:12 PM
I am a "glass half full" person. Raised by an optimistic yankee and single mother of 5. I have always been credited with reframing negative situations in order to see the positive..... But even the cheerful have their down days... Well, mine lasted a couple of months...(hello menopause) smile.
After a weekend in Snowy Chicago with Realtors from all over the Nation... I was turned around. I heard how great our Country is, how vibrant Real Estate is in some parts of the Country, how so many of us "get by giving".
I came back refreshed... ready to get organized, prepared to … (1 comments)

listings: Quick listing, quick closing... who knew? - 09/21/08 08:17 AM
When the owners of Seatucket invited me to list their house, I was excited. Cute, close to the Cape Cod Coast, well decorated... When we sat together They said "we are either going to rent it or sell it...and we don't really care which". I figured in this market... this could be a long listing. I gave them my price, and they said " No, we want to start, $20,000 higher, we love our house and we don't have to sell."
Now, I took the listing. Some of you in ActiveRain land are shaking your heads. Some are just … (1 comments)

listings: Selling, Selling, Selling, I am happy Selling.... CApe Cod.... - 04/13/08 06:45 AM
Between last week and this the sky opened up and sent the buyers in droves to CApe Cod. Buyers are contemplating their summer plans, looking for the Cape Cod Memory or relocating for thier jobs. Century 21 Open House month is going well with multiple offers on some properties... Could this be the market is on its way back up? ON our first weekend of open houses we held 14 and sold 4. One house had 4 offers on it and sold for over asking. Pretty good weekend? I was able to secure 7 new buyers clients and am actively searching … (3 comments)

listings: BEING THE OPEN HOUSE, Thanks Rainers - 04/06/08 06:55 AM
Yesterday I asked the questions "to Open House or Not"...what is the benefit? Many of you replied with some skepticism, some of you thought Open Houses were a good idea... and all who responded seemed to feel Open Houses are worth a try... I think perception is key... How we view something brings us to it or away from it. I took my crazy day of 3 open houses and decided "This is going to be fun". Embrace the OPEN HOUSE, I said to myself. Stop viewing it as a waste of time. ENJOY THIS CRAZINESS>>>>( My brother who is a professional … (19 comments)

listings: OPen Houses or Not? What is your take on Open Houses? - 04/05/08 05:59 AM
It is open house month for Century 21 around the Globe and our Company is hitting the ground running by scheduleing over 60 Open Houses for the month of April. The question is ... Do open houses work? I mean how many of us have sold the house we sat in for two hours at the open house? In my 10 year career I can maybe count 2 houses that actually sold as a result of the open house. This is out of several hundred open houses that I have had. Now ... I have been able to convert some buyers … (12 comments)

listings: Go Away, make money! - 03/07/08 09:09 AM
When I first started in REal Estate my boss said ...plan a vacation and the buyers will come. How crazy is that theory? But it is soooooo true. I was at the C21 Conference and sold two houses? How does this happen...is there a great cosmic shift that screams..."she's away, buy now and screw up her time off". Smiling. I am not complaining although my husband would have liked to have seen me less with my phone to my ear. I also managed a few listing appointments for when I came home. I believe the real estate gods know when to throw … (12 comments)
