yourstories realty group with keller williams: "That's my loan officer", my client said. - 11/22/16 03:36 AM
I am an early riser and my clients know that.  I had wrapped up my reading, my affirmations and my meditation.  I was feeling great.  I heard the familiar ping of a text and I reflexifly reached for it. "I can't believe I wake up every morning and this is my reality, sheesh!" was what it said.  It was 6:30AM, start of another day in the life of a Realtor.  Since Andrew had just texted me I gave him a quick call.
Breathlessly he said, "do you have the news on?"  "No", I responded.  I thought to myself I can't remember the … (3 comments)

I miss you. Real Estate; Boston Area Move in Homes. Real Estate is such a complex business that you will never know until you live the life.

Today was weird, out of the usual, but then again what is usual?  Really.
I am hired to do a sale, way below my price range, but referred from a former mentee and I got sucked into the story.  A Realtor® pledges Confidentiality.  … (4 comments)

yourstories realty group with keller williams: Rejuvenation, What is stopping you? - 04/24/16 10:10 PM
Rejuvenation, What is stopping you? Let me answer that question for myself right away.  I am too focused on the small and missing the large. I am focused on my next listing, my next testimonial, my next prospect and not enough on my life.  Lives need rejuvenation.  Lives need diversity of action, you can not wake up every single day and do the exact same thing and expect that you will grow exponentially because of your actions. I know this because I have lived this.  I know this because I am on a rejuvenation weekend with my wife and my passion … (2 comments)

A Significant Birthday. My home is better because... I share that with my exceptional bride.  To build careers worth having, businesses worth owning, and lives worth living, as is the Keller Williams goal, it is not enough on its own.

In the end it is always about the testimonial.  Someone who is willing to stand up and give testimony to your actions and results.  I have … (8 comments)

Real Estate is a Process and best practices will guide you.  This seemingly easy process can be very stressful if you don't know what to expect.  Each season and each year can be different.  This is clearly evident if you consider the market in 2010 and the market now.  In 2010 our economy and our housing market that drives our economy was in the dumps.  Driven there by greedy Wall Street and the banking industry the real estate market was collapsing. Today is much different.  The market has come back to it's levels of before the crash and the inventory of … (4 comments)

yourstories realty group with keller williams: Ready-Fire-Aim. Hiring a best real estate agent for today's market. - 04/13/16 05:28 PM
Ready Fire Aim Hiring a best real estate agent for today's market. This is not the best way to hire the most qualified agent for your needs. National Association of Realtors (NAR) statistics show that most people only talk to one agent.  This is really not the way to get the best qualified agent either.  No two agents are created equal and so you should always be talking to more than one agent.  You should google your agent to see what they are doing on the internet.
The internet now drives the real estate industry. There is so much information out there … (3 comments)

Friend or Not, Get the Paperwork Signed. My friend of 30 plus years called me over a year ago. She has started a brand new business that is growing like gangbusters. I am so happy and excited for her. They needed more space to grow and we started a year in advance to find the business a suitable location. Since the business involved food preparation there were specific hurdles in terms of the health department and OSHA to consider. It was necessary to check in with each of the towns building departments to understand the various health code requirements. While this … (4 comments)
