sonora ca 95370 jim w hildreth broker remax of sonora: A escrow makes the difference
- 12/04/08 12:16 AM
December 03 2008 Having been in the real estate brokerage business for 32 years and seeing many highs and lows, the last 30 day's I was in a dry streak. The previous month, I closed four transactions, paid bills and the realty is that I have 18 good listings and the past 30 days were the driest that I can remember. Minimal calls, inquires and this seemed to be similiar among co-workers, including some of the largest companies. Was this seasonal? was this the realty of the new market? My reaction, was to make more calls, calling expired, previewing properties, … (4 comments)

The sellers of the home are about 8 months behind in payments and the sellers were told by the bank that rather than accepting a Deed in Lieu of foreclosure that would prefer seeing the home listed. The sellers have limited income, the husband was off for about a year due to a job injury. The sellers did not want a foreclosure on their record. We listed the home to get the attention of the open market and our office … (1 comments)

Several weeks ago I wrote about a true campaign story while I walked door to door running for the Sonora City Council. The story talked about a woman who would not vote for me because I was a Realtor and I told her I cared about the community and as a volunteer fireman, when I got out of bed at 3:00am, it was not because I wanted a listing. The story that I shared with you is that her home had a fire the next morning and I took off my helmet and in a sweeping motion said. "Good morning your Realtor … (2 comments)
