I was just reading a blog post from Jim  about his lists to help clients with Real Estate decisions.  It is an excellent blog worth reading and implementing.  I have another version of this idea.   In my life and with my clients I almost always make them - (sometimes reluctantly ) go down the worst case road.  I point it out. We discuss it.  We map out the  worst case.  We face that fear.  Then for emphasis I suggest another plan for the worst case. 

This may sound counter productive to some people.  I have found  this  plan is  a good way  to make a decision.  The worst is faced.  Everything else looks rosy.  It really does.

My family moved to Burlington when I was 10 years old. The population was 42, 000 that day. Not yet a city with one arena, two high schools single laned main streets, a sleepy little movie theatre, a bus once a day out to where we lived, orchards,…

Yes you could always lower the price. Everyone wants the most they can get for their home. Oddly pricing lower can sometimes bring in a higher price. Starting off too high and having the home on the market for too long (and that so depends on the…
Is Rudeness the new Normal?

I really try to be as curteous as I possibly can. As a Sales Representative and as a person in the regular world I try my best. Today I wanted to buy a table and chair set advertised in a flyer by a large chain store. I was 'greeted' at the door…
photography questions

This acutally has nothing directly to do with Real Estate except that we do take the photos of our listings -at least I do. I have purchased a Canon G9. It has an auto setting and also some choices for speed, etc. Is anyone able to quickly sum up…
Keeping Emotion in check

I have read several blogs now on the 'poker face', and the importance of not giving anything away ie: through emotions. Baffling baffling baffling. Are other people just really good at reading other people and I am not? Are other people so sure…
Checking out Neighourhoods

Down Size Buyers\; This is your market....

Buyers are stimulated by record low interest rates - buying a home has never been more affordable. Where did all these buyers come from? Well, mostly they came from the future - they were going to buy in the next few years. So, today's buyers aren't…
