How One Lender Used Social Media to "WOW" a Client Today
We've all experienced delays on closings for one reason or another and they're never fun. But when they happen at the last minute it can cause a lot of stress for all parties involved in the transaction. Well that scenario happened to us this morning.
We had a closing scheduled for 1:00 today with our Buyer who arrived by train at 1:00 a.m. this morning from the East Coast to close on her new home. Her furniture is also scheduled to arrive today.
The sellers of the house she's buying are packed … (59 comments)

As If My Blog Wasn't Working Hard Enough Already
After blogging for close to three years, we have developed an extensive library of content on real estate-related articles. Google loves our content and rewards us by ranking us highly for many local real estate terms and neighborhoods.
Our blog works very hard for us, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, helping consumers learn more about the area, find our home search, promoting our listings, and asking them to contact us for their real estate needs. All of this hard work pays off by helping us connect with people who need help … (19 comments)

Visit the Dinosaurs at Bozeman Montana's Museum of the Rockies! - 10/22/09 06:05 AM
Visit the Dinosaurs at Bozeman Montana's Museum of the Rockies!
This summer we stayed in Bozeman for a few days to attend a training class for TopProducer. While we were in Bozeman, we took my 7-year old nephew to the Museum of the Rockies.
The museum features exhibits on Native American culture and artifacts, a Western history collection, outdoor exhibits, and is best known for its Paleontology exhibits. The museum's dinosaur complex is impressive and is a major stop on Montana's Dinosaur Trail - a tour of Montana's rich paleontological findings.

Deer and Elk and Bears Oh My - Tips for Living with Montana's Abundant Wildlife
I've lived in Montana most of my life but it wasn't until we moved to our property that borders thousands of acres of Lolo National Forest that I learned about the joy and frustrations of living with wildlife.
We love our connection with nature from living in Montana and that we are able to wake up and find deer in our yard, have wild turkeys pass through on their way to the creek, and see Elk and Moose on the hillside or along the creek. It's an amazing … (5 comments)

Speechless Sunday: All Aboard! - 10/04/09 09:03 PM

Ok, if you're a pet in the Ray house, it's safe to say that you'll get dressed up in funny outfits on a regular basis. Our daughter, Kelsey, loves to put hats, bandanas, and occasionally t-shirts, costumes, and even a tutu on our pets. She's also an amateur photographer which results in some pretty comical pet photos.
This is our chocolate lab, Caddis in her bandana and a baseball cap - looking a lot like the railroad conductor. This photo was featured on CuteasHell.com where she has a profile to showcase all of her photos.
