Sleep Patterns Of A Real Estate Broker....Is Eight Hours Laying Horizontal Too Much? - 08/31/10 07:33 AM
Eight hours a day spent sawing logs, sleeping to recharge and go get them the next day for a real estate broker, agent, REALTOR? Is that just too much down time or with the pace you lead, it is critical for this many hours of ZZZZzzz's?
If your real estate operation is not run tightly, with tons of slack, loose ends and you are not up to speed with the daily developments, it is not just a question of quantity, but quality sleep.

Could You Move Please, I Am Trying To Watch The Movie, Hear The Conversation, Etc. - 08/29/10 09:07 AM
You know the feeling when someone stands in front of a television screen during the best part of a movie and starts yak yak yak about this or that? You bob, weave, dip, stand up, lean to see around them. You try to turn up the sound on the movie, and tune down the person that is chatty cathy and ignoring your one word reminders about "dialog".
The same situation happens with real estate brokers, agents, REALTORS who hog the social media spotlight. That stand too close, appear too often and "fill the lens" so nothing behind it like the real … (2 comments)

Real Estate Appraisals Out Of Whack, Way Way Too Low Happen Reminds Billy Joel. - 08/29/10 08:02 AM
The song about "we're only human, we're supposed to make mistakes", sang by Billy Joel pertained to real estate agents, brokers, REALTORS and yes, even Maine property appraisers. How does it happen and why? And we're not talking about a few thousand dollars below the property purchase and sale price. We mean when the home in Monticello Maine is assessed by the town for $65500 .
And rarely see any Maine house sell below the municipal tax value which is historically low but generates enough revenue to run the town.

So when you see blog posts about "sellers, buyers don't get it" or "real estate owners have to realize this, this and this" in a tone of how little they know, how trying they get, I feel a pit in my stomach.

But when does the sheltering, codling go too far and create a cacoon of large headed, big feeling you are pretty darn special individuals walking around? When the truth is you are not contributing, more of a burden to society than a worker. Simply not making where you live a better place by eating and breathing there? And frequently talking about how your rights are being violated. How entitled you are, and reminding everyone Uncle Sam needs to take care of you … (4 comments)

But when a Maine real estate buyer calls, wants information on this, this and this type of property sent, emailed to them the broker, agent, REALTOR quickly puts together image links.

Problem, Ornery, Cantankerous Property Listings, Homes, Land That Just Take Lots Of Extra Time, More Effort. - 08/18/10 11:39 AM
Problem properties, sometimes with real estate buyers or sellers wired the same way. Like children in a family where some are well adjusted, self directed and others needy and requiring lots more individual attention. Real estate listings that soak up boat loads of time, resources, effort and emotion can be fun to finally close. But all the way around expensive. Are they worth it and did you not see the hubbub signs ahead on the property listing highway? All that debris, collateral problems linked to it around the next curve, over that approaching hill?

Water is like the fire crackling, blazing that you get drawn in to, stuck to like a magnet and metal.

Making everything fit, come together, snap, click, lock in place, slide on a glass slipper in the Maine real estate process.

Study, packaging, understanding the programs from the bank, mortgage outfit and the concept vision, change of guidelines. 
The biggest obstacle in the changing world of financing a Maine home has been sharing the new developments with the home buyer who qualifies only for this very restrictive, selective "if if if" program thru the bank.

And if you get all cranked up, emotional or catty and judgmental with finger pointing as the deal drags, no one wins or gets to the destination. Real estate brokers are hardworking, community minded and most have a sense of humor, engage in fair play.
But if you want a buddy, to be entertained, remember the broker, agent, REALTOR is part Vulcan. Has to be level headed, less emotional, more little red hen hustle wired to make the details not turn out devilish. There is … (4 comments)

Small Town Real Estate Sales Make You The Chief Cook And Bottle Washer. - 08/06/10 06:01 AM
Are you built to be a specialist in real estate and listing, marketing, selling just one type of property? And at the same time do you live in such a large market with your job one slice of the process in the wonderful, never dull or boring world of real estate?
 Like you do just commercial office space rental and your job in that selective niche is just to acquire the listing, shoot images, write copy and someone else uploads it to the mls, does the promotion, showing for the most part?
If you enjoy, really shine at one particular aspect … (12 comments)

Hurry Hurry, Pants On Fire, Ice Creams Melting In The Car Hop To It Urgency. - 08/05/10 11:37 AM
Buying, selling real estate is an emotional experience. But when a broker, agent, REALTOR contacts another professional in the property food chain, they know better than any one what to tell their client, a buyer or seller when asked what the heck is taking so long?
There is a team effort, everyone has a job, different sequence to dove tail the whole operation with.
Sometimes asked why is buyer, seller, broker, banker, someone who messed up royally in their minds.
Why are they torturing us with the long delayed response? Getting back to us with information?
Really why are they being … (3 comments)

Blog Topic That Saves You Money, Time, Clears The Desk For More Real Estate Promotion, Property Sales. - 08/05/10 07:11 AM
Blog posts your eyeballs bug out on, linger and your mouse stops, hovers as your finger considers clicking the headline to graze, munch on the content.
Time saving blogs never go out of style.
And even though we all have our own private list of the top ten blog topics that we don't just read, but feel like a kid with a new Sports Illustrated magazine just arrived to peruse with our morning Wheaties.
For starters, reblogs of award winning posts and not so stellar non bell ringers can be intially exciting, but then you realize clever headline. But been there, … (4 comments)

Granite In Kitchen, 3.5 Baths, 4 Car Garage, Walk To Victorian Maine Downtown...What's Not To Like? - 08/04/10 09:36 AM

The Home Town Movie You Starred In As A Kid, The ME House Had A Major Influence. - 08/04/10 07:33 AM
Where you grew up, the home your parents put up the Christmas tree in, the backyard you played catch in and all the neighborhood kids around it had a big influence on who you are now right ? If the home was very small, you shared a bedroom with your brother. Maybe it was not added on to, or Mom and Dad did not sell it to move to something bigger due to divorce, illness, a job lay off or another event in life.
In town, out of town comes with its pluses and minuses as a kid. The home near the … (3 comments)

The Naked Truth Of It Is The Next Door Maine Real Estate Neighbor Is A Nudist. - 08/03/10 09:57 AM
Mowing his lawn nude while you are trying to show a Maine property can pose a challenge. Not in the winter so much snowblowing the driveway(smiling) but during the long string of sunny summer weather Maine has been enjoying.
Ever had a property listing, real estate where you wished the neighbor would put some clothes on? My first experience with the situation.
Nudists, sun worshippers in their birthday suits.. have other Active Rain bloggers, real estate brokers run in to the problem of lack of clothing with their sellers, buyers, neighboring property owners?
The Maine police called during a 4th of July … (13 comments)

"Ah, Sure You Can Take Your Car To The Maine Real Estate Home Showing..No Feelings Hurt Here." - 08/03/10 08:52 AM
The Maine real estate buyer meets you at the office, you're heading to an empty home. Usually hopping in the jeep and talking along the way and return helps figure out the "so how did you like the place?" Part of our property match making process. But if there are three dogs, big dogs and the buyer's mini van is a Noah's Ark or sounds like the K-9 pound, maybe they'll be following you. And as you go with the tractor beam on, being careful not to loose them in crack the whip style around country roads you know but they … (3 comments)

The Off Color Jokes, Slang Terms About The Real Estate Being A Pigsty, Nothing To Oink Home About Hurt. - 08/02/10 07:53 AM
The Three Little Pigs And The Big Bad Wolf Real Estate Broker starts now. And the homes were not all the same, not thrown together with sticks and twigs, straw or built out of brick either. The first pig's broker Slow Poke showed up after three weeks of calls, office visits, emails and outright chasing him. And eventually he got a sign in the front lawn, a few local ads run. But other than that, no marketing from the Big Bad Real Estate Broker Wolf. So the first little pig sat, waited, fumed and stewed.
The second little pig was a little … (5 comments)

In your experience with family, and we're not talking immediate live in the same household type, but your garden variety first, second cousins, aunts and uncles sort of relatives.
