national marketing realtors: Chore Day - 04/23/17 02:41 PM

Yesterday was a day of chores and family. Real Estate has a way of bringing those two together. I could never do what we Realtors do without the help of my family. Ever since my children were old enough to lick a stamp, clean dads office, help decorate for holidays, my family has been behind me 100%.
Yesterday I got a lot of chores done but the biggest one was cleaning a new construction home for a special open house I will be holding this coming Wednesday. We mopped up the sheetrock dust, cleaned the counters, and washed down the driveway and … (8 comments)

national marketing realtors: Things You May Not Know About Your ND Realtor - 04/18/17 08:59 AM
 
Real estate licenses are issued by the State of North Dakota.
 
Those wishing to sell Real Estate in ND must submit to a thorough background check that includes fingerprints and an extensive credit check. (the objective here is that if you can not handle your own finances you should not be handling others, especially on the biggest purchase of their lives)
Examples of those who may be denied: Recent bankruptcies, those with a lean against them for not paying rent or automotive payments, leans for credit card debt, medical debt, and more.
 
Anyone who would like to have a license MUST complete a course … (16 comments)

national marketing realtors: My Ship Is Faster Than Your Ship - 04/16/17 07:37 PM

I don't remember which Star Trek Movie they introduced the The U.S.S. Excelsior NX-2000 in but I do remember that it had Transwarp Drive. How cool would that be?
If you are a sci-fi fan then you know that a Transporter disassembles your molecules in one spot and then in the blink of an eye reassembles them in another spot. "Beam me up Scotty".
Although I thought this was the first mention of a ship "transporting" across space I realized I was wrong when I heard John 6:21 on a tape the other day. Jesus clearly transported the ship the he and the disciples were in … (20 comments)

HAPPY EASTER
FROM BOB TIMM
& National Marketing Realtors
 
Okay, so I used the word wonderful to many times but it was really a great week and when you make these recordings on the fly sometimes you just get stuck.
In addition to the great business this week it's also been a delight to attend the worship services associated with Easter this week and all during Lent. I hope you celebrate as well tomorrow and enjoy the day!

national marketing realtors: Another Day Of Helping Out - 04/10/17 07:24 AM

It's the time of year again for the KHRT Radio Sharathon. It's kind of like a telethon but it's a way that our Christian Radio station raises funds to stay on the air.
Because KHRT refuses to air alcohol, tobacco, or casino advertising they it leaves them a little short for operating expenses so they hold a Sharathon two times a year to make up for that lack of revenue.
I enjoy volunteering to answer phones one morning each Sharathon. This spring I volunteered to help out two days. This is day two for me and it's been a GREAT morning. I hope I … (10 comments)

national marketing realtors: Prime Retail Location Reduced to $399,900. - 04/07/17 01:01 PM

PRIME RETAIL/BUSINESS LOCATION
Reduced by $200,000!
from $599,900 to $399,900.
Fantastic location on the frontage road of North Broadway (Minot's busiest street) just across from the Minot International Airport and next to Minot's only (and very popular) Bowling Alley.
4,738 square feet of building space on a 27,531 square foot lot. This building would be excellent for offices/retail or even another lounge (liquor license NOT available). At 84.40 per square foot this is easily the best commercial buy in the City of Minot.
Not for lease or rent. Owner is NOT interested in owner financing.

national marketing realtors: My Drive To Work, To Much Photo Fun - 04/07/17 06:20 AM

I've been seeing this scene on my way to work all week so I thought I better take the shot before it's just a memory.
Aeroboat
Hey Johnny, look this direction!
Ship Ahoy... err ship overhead?
 
 
 Lower the Sails!
What you see here is the demolition of the North Broadway bridge, a two year project. They just started the removal of the North bound lanes. The bridge spans the Mouse River and several rail road tracks. I assume the boat is kept handy in case a worker should accidentally fall into the river during construction.

national marketing realtors: Yes... That Is A Real Lion You Hear In My Yard - 04/05/17 07:43 PM

Yesterday I greeted a guest as she pulled up to the house to visit. As we started to visit in the front yard a lion started his wind-up into his roar.
I don't know if you have ever heard a real lion roar before but they build up to it by kinda panting (loudly) and then build up to a roar.
My guest was a bit startled and worried as she was looking to see where the lion was.
While this is all true I better clarify... the lion was in his cage at the zoo about a block away. He sounds like he is … (30 comments)

national marketing realtors: A peek at my upcoming interview with The City Assessor - 04/04/17 07:20 PM

Yesterday I interviewed Minot's City Assessor Kevin Ternes for the radio program Minot Real Estate Today on KHRT Radio.
Kevin's interview will air in about two weeks so I just wanted to give you a "heads up" as this is one program you will not want to miss. Although the program is only 15 minutes on air Kevin visited with the staff of National Marketing Realtors for about 45 minutes and let me assure you he has some great insights to share with you.

national marketing realtors: Fishing With Dad - 04/03/17 06:55 PM

Another "Something To Do" In Minot
Despite the cry of "there is nothing to do in Minot" there are a good number of folks that would disagree and say there is nothing better on Earth than fishing.
During my photo walk tonight I captured this dad teaching his boy how to fish the river by the dam just off of Burdick Expressway East.
The City has several fishing docks set up but shore fishing by the dams seem to be the most popular. 
One last note about river fishing in Minot on the Mouse River. Occasionally the game warden will come around and check for fishing licenses.

national marketing realtors: Prom Night - 04/01/17 05:15 PM
Prom night always confirms Dady's worst nightmare.
His little girl is growing up and much of the world doesn't she his daughter as a little girl anymore... she is now seen by many as a young lady or even a woman.
I've actually seen my daughter as a young lady for a couple of years now. Seen her in her Jr. ROTC uniform, her Police Explores uniform, all dressed up for confirmation and many more special events.
Myself having been a scoundrel in my teenage years I started warning her about boys like me since she was about six years old. Thank God she actually … (26 comments)

national marketing realtors: On My Trip To The Hardware Store - 04/01/17 12:51 PM
On my trip to and from the hardware store today I ran into two classics.
I bought one of the two.
 
As far as I can figure from looking at Wikipedia it's a 1969 Ghia model. Wiki tells us that there were seven generations of the Chrysler Imperial, the first generation was the 1955 and 1966 models. The second generation was from 1957 through 1966 which is where this one fits into. Look at the trunk on this thing... If the parking lot was full I may have parked my Toyota in it. I believe my dad had a similar model and I … (19 comments)
