I love this game!!! - 03/30/09 07:47 PM
Today was the mandatory orientation class for new Realtors, starting at 9 and ending at 4.  I was ready for a long and boring day learning even more about license law, agency and tons of dry info about the code of ethics.  I didn't expect anything incredibly productive to happen today...  but it did! 
During the first break I turn my phone on and I have a message from Pam Pugmire in Idaho with Bridgetower Real Estate.  She said she has a lead for a buyer in Fort Wayne and wondered if I would be interested.  OF COURSE!  THANKS PAM!!!!

Has there ever been a better time to buy a home than RIGHT NOW???? - 03/25/09 01:35 PM
Here is a list of reasons why it is a great time to buy a home NOW!!
1. There is an abundance of homes on the Fort Wayne market right now.  What does that mean to you?  Lower prices, bigger selection.
2. Mortgage rates are LOW!!  5.09% today on a 30 year fixed mortgage.  That’s LOW!!!  For any of your mortgage questions and needs check out Metro Mortgage.

A special thanks to Barb Szabo! - 03/23/09 07:41 PM
A few weeks ago I got a call from a friend and past client.  He had a close friend of his that lived in the Cleveland area that needed to sell her house and asked me if I had any contacts there, preferably a RE/Max agent.  I thought for a second...  Cleveland...  hm...  Drew Carey... Brady Quinn...  maybe Lebron...  Oh wait!  Barb Szabo!!!!!
I have read her blog posts about Email Forwarding and how she won't answer some of the questions buyer's ask, and have appreciated how her blog talks about many things, not just real estate market reports.

LOL Friday. Thought I would throw some funny out there! - 03/20/09 02:12 PM
I have seen this before but it was funny a second time so I hope it is for you too.  It is from a grade school teacher: 

My five-year old students are learning to read.
 Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"I took a deep breath, then asked...."What did you call it?"It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!"
And so it does...

Attacked by a dog at my open house today!! - 03/01/09 03:24 PM
Even though it's only 23 degrees and windy today it is sunny and I thought I was going to have a GREAT open house today!  I pulled in the drive and noticed a yellow pit bull next door.  No big deal, I watch the Dog Whisperer!  I get out of the car and don't even acknowledge the dog until...

YUP, the dog charged me.  I faced the dog and yelled at it to stop, which it did.  Then I was going to back away and the damn thing charged me again and tried to bite me.  CESAR???  CESAR MILAN?????  (Dog … (15 comments)
