Do you use the Popcorn button on your microwave?  Are you one that says, "Yes, I use it, but it doesn't really pop the popcorn very well"?  Is your bag usually not full?  Do you have lots of kernels left over?
If so, you're not using it properly!  I'm going to … (19 comments)

What do you think of Thank You letters?  When do you deem them important to send out?
I usually send out a Thank You card when I receive gifts like for a Wedding, Birth of a Baby, or Birthday.  I don't send Thank You cards at Christmas or Hannukah or Anniversaries.

No, that's not a typo.  This house had 114 showings on it.  What was wrong with it, you might ask.  Nothing!  It is a great house!
This is where pricing competetively can sometimes backfire...

I've been in real estate for almost 9 years.  Real estate was my passion. I was a workaholic.  I took, and still do take, every transaction very personally.  I become friends with many of the buyers and sellers.  To this day, I get excited for a buyer when they submit an … (42 comments)

Well, I gave in last night, and joined the ever looming, Facebook.  Are you on Facebook?
