Always make A Lasting Impression! - 04/30/11 07:17 AM
Always make A Lasting Impression!
After a closing yesterday where I represented the sellers I started thinking about how important it is as a seller and listing agent....to leave a really good lasting impression on the buyers!
We all know that the home is to be left in broom swept condition prior to closing.....I personally think the seller and listing agent should go a little further before the close. Some of the below suggestions should be done after the final walk-through but, before closing so that there's a little WOW factor when the buyers come back to their New HOME!

Wild (Life) Wednesday.....Road Kill---Road Block!These two buzzards are helping out the highway department with a clean up project.
A poor old possum met his demise not too long ago and these two are trying to do their civic duty and save the tax payers money by taking care of the clean-up by themselves.
If only more of us were like them......not with road-kill....but with other things we see in our daily lives that we could help other people with.

I mean how could you be SPEECHLESS!
I knew as soon as I walked up on this Goose egg last Sunday playing golf at Clear Creek Golf Course that I had to use it in my post for Easter!
I mean there had to be a new little life somewhere close by getting ready to embark on its own journey through this world!
It reminded me of the true meaning of the Holiday that so many take for granted!

Things You Shouldn't Find In A Home Inspection #3 - 04/21/11 06:55 AM
Things You Shouldn't Find In A Home Inspection #3

This is a carcass of something recently found in the crawl space of a really nice home. The problem here was that the entry into the crawl space was not properly secure with the correct door which enabled critters to make their way in. This one just happened not to make its way back out!
This is just another reason to make your own inspection from time to time to eliminate things like this from happening....just take a few minutes once a month to check areas like this out....it could really … (27 comments)

This is just to update you on last weeks post. Last week I shot took this photo of what I considered to be a lost Goose.....I related it to us stepping out of our comfort zone and trying new ideas for life and business.

Things You Shouldn't Find In A Home Inspection #1



I guess this was an after thought when this home was built several years ago.
It is just me or would this scare anybody into making sure they have a home inspection?
It amazes me the short cuts you see some builders make when they are building homes......How in the world could this have passed inspection?
Just another reason to always have that INSPECTION.....you just never know what you might find! And Remember For All Of Your Real Estate Needs In The Bristol Tn Va and Surrounding Area....GoWithRobThomas.com

Motivational Monday....The Grass Is Greener Sometimes!

I ran upon this today and it got me to thinking that....
Maybe the grass is greener on the other side of the fence! (Sometimes)
So maybe this is a great example of why we need to evaluate our own lives and ways of doing business from time to time and see if there are better methods of doing things other than the way we've become accustomed!
  You never know...we may just come up with some new ideas that we've never thought of!
