niche marketing: Tickled Pink! An article in my local paper about what I do - 09/28/11 05:26 PM
I am honored and tickled pink that there was an article written in my local paper about my niche in real estate and what I do. The title is "No barriers to a dream home".  They even interviewed my  past and present clients Hopefully this will bring some more business but as the article says, "It's very rewarding; it's not about the money. It's more about helping people find the right home that's going to work for them."
 
This is a link to the article.

niche marketing: Glowing letter of recommendation - 09/21/11 12:08 PM
When someone writes you a glowing letter of reccomendation it just makes your day. I was blown away by the glowing accolades and praise in this letter. I could not have paid Jerry to do better PR for me. What made it all the more special is that it came from someone in my niche: a senior couple who needed a wheel chair accessible home.
 
The money that I make selling real estate is nice but it is really this that I work for.

niche marketing: Resources for Parents of special needs kids movng to the Triangle - 06/11/11 06:05 PM
One of the hardest things about moving to a new place with a child with special needs is trying to find the resources and support you need. Most of the resources are not found in one place. From my own experience, connecting with other parents who "have been there and done that" has been most helpful. Here is  a list of my top ten resources:
 

Austim Society of North Carolina  Having a young son with autism ASNC has been a great resource. They have a yearly huge conference where they bring top notch speakers. The have local chapters throughout the state for more … (0 comments)

niche marketing: Senior Real Estate Specialist in Raleigh - 10/04/10 10:54 AM
I had the pleasure to work in the 50+ Pavilion at the Ideal Home show of Raleigh last weekend. I shared the SRES (Senior Real Estate Specialist) booth with 3 other Realtors and our goal was to share information with the public about the importance of working with a Realtor who specializes in working with seniors and the 50+ market.
 

It's All about relationships!
I have worked the Ideal home show in the past when I was invited by one of my favorite custom builders Lewis Sadler. His work is focused on aging in place and a home that … (4 comments)

niche marketing: Moving to Cary or the surrounding area with a child with a developmental disability? - 08/29/10 12:33 AM
Are you planning on moving to Cary, NC and you have a child with developmental disabilities? I am the Realtor for you! My youngest son has autism and we have been in the Wake county school system since preschool. I can tell you all the good, bad & ugly. Luckily there has been very little ugly and we have been very happy with the schools that Josh has attended. He is in middle school now and doing very well even though I was more nervous about the transition than he was.

I can only give you specifics about the school … (5 comments)

niche marketing: Anniversary of the ADA & my own "Proclamation" - 07/26/10 02:31 PM
Today is the 20 yr anniversary of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). People all over the country today are celebrating one of the pivotal moments of the Civil/Disability Rights Movement. 20 years ago the Americans With Disabilities Act became law, opening many doors for the nation's largest minority group. I posted this on my Facebook account and an interpreter friend of mine who's sister uses a wheel chair, commented that not many people even know what the law is and that it impacts the LARGEST minority in our country. This maybe true but I want to stay focused on the … (2 comments)

niche marketing: Servicng the deaf community and specializing your niche - 09/01/09 07:34 AM
Hi All,
If you have worked with the deaf community or are fluent in ASL I'd love to network with you. My specialty is helping people with disabilities (all disabilities) find the right home or sell their existing one. Admittedly this is a unique niche in real estate. But my website is working and I have people contact me from outher parts of the country. It also is not as narrow as you might think because it also can include Boomers because they are often looking for a place where they can "age in place".
If you have had some experience … (5 comments)
