Are you buying a home in Germantown Wisconsin, then look out for other buyers
An interesting thing has happened to me this last week. I've gotten a ton of calls on one of my homes for sale. Ordinarily this wouldn't be such a big deal because I want calls on my homes for sale so then why is this such a big deal?  
First of all, there is an accepted offer on the home, so for all practical purposes, it's sold. But more importantly, it tells me that there are buyer's out there, lots of buyers! Could this mean that our market … (0 comments)

Milwaukee has seen it's share of big box store closings but that has created some good opportunities.

Carpe Diem: Seize the Day - 01/06/11 02:43 PM
Carpe Diem: Seize the Day
Learn as much as you can about as many things as possible A winner never quits and a quitter never wins.
Success can be measured by how much you surrender; you can't keep what you have unless you give it away!
Almost everything that happens in life is a direct result of a choice made by the individual. Make the right choices, even in the small things.
If you don't attempt to shape your life, your life will shape you.
Everything after "but" can be considered bologna sausage!
You reap what you sew, sew good … (11 comments)
