They've all done it! Ralph Lauren, Martha Stewart, Laura Ashley...and now, LANIA DEMERS presents: The Ghetto Fabulous Line, (exclusively available through my Colorado Springs Office)!

funny: NEW NON-COMMITTAL PRE-QUAL LETTER FOR LENDERS...Funny! - 11/27/07 01:37 PM
I have been receiving some offers on my listings lately that seem to have strong pre-qual letters attached, but as we progress through the transaction, I find that many deals are falling apart due to the lender's loss of programs, stricter underwriting guidelines, and general change in program guidelines that has

funny: EXPENSIVE VS. LOW COST...MORE BANG FOR YOUR AD BUCK - 11/07/07 02:28 PM
Colorado Springs is NOT one of the 10 best real estate markets right now, but I thank God for our steady and faithful client base in these lean times. However, times are tough and we have to cut the budget and tighten the belt. One of the places we have to

funny: Staging on a Budget...It CAN be done! - 09/13/07 05:47 PM
It's usually best to set a chair in an otherwise awkwardly blank section by a window to create additional seating and a feeling of relaxation... And nothing says "take a load off" more than an inviting sofa in an otherwise stark entry... Who says you have to be a millionaire to have your

Hi Guys! I got this as a forward from one of my agents. I think it's probably the most accurate representation I've seen and it sure explains a lot of my husband's behavior to me! To think, we've been married almost 17 years and some of these things have eluded me

Several years back, my son, (who is a pre-teen now), was on some showings with me. We were in a house that was in estate and my investor was poking around and thinking about what to offer. My little boy came up to me and said, "Mom, you gotta come here and

I'm kind of new to AR and I love it! I find it funny to see that there's no seeming rhyme or reason to the subject that could take on a life of it's own. I'd like to know what your favorite or most memorable post has been and why it

All right. Buckle your seat belts! With the arguably litigious society in which we live, I'm sure this will be a post for you to keep and perhaps share with your fellow professionals. I, for one, will never forget the lesson I learned today. Today's home inspection will forever change the way

Here are some of the ads I've come up with that make the phones ring! I think buyers have a sense of humor and I usually run these type ads in the local American Classifieds, (formerly Thrifty Nickel). The cheap house ad is retired by me now, but one of my

I'm in a fun post mood tonight. Let's hear who you've had the opportunity to work with that could be famous or legendary...even infamous would be fine. Here's mine. I sold "Uncle Wilbur's" house. He is a local legend here in Colorado Springs and the sweetest man you'd ever want to meet.
