As any homeowner knows, selling your home can be challenging. After listening to your Realtor's urging to get your home decluttered, changing paint color, getting the yard in order, fixing those little things that have been broken for years - and possibly staging your home, things are looking pretty good!

As I was drinking my coffee this morning, I was thinking about my weekend and the last few weeks and it struck me that there is just a bad vibe in our country right now. And I'm seeing it in Real Estate big time. For example, I've noticed that...
We have a beagle. His name is Snoopy. He knows how to tell time. I think he should go on Oprah.

Yesterday, Bear, my 4-year-old Border Collie mix, and I discovered one of the Rochester area's best kept secrets for dog owners! Well, okay, maybe it's not a secret, but as a relatively new dog owner it was new to me!
Just over a month to go until registered voters in the United States elect a new president. Presidential elections are often met with mixed emotions. Elections definitely energize the general public. Big elections can get those who might normally pay no attention to politics to sit up and take notice, and … (10 comments)
Today my hubby has been in heaven. First there was the football game, then the golf, now there's racing. He even watched some golf shots on UTUBE. He surfed back and forth between the football and golf and is now watching the racing. I cannot get him to budge from his … (7 comments)
In the latest in my mini series of animal stories, comes the tale of Buddy the German Shepherd who called 911 and started barking down the phone to alert operators to the fact that his owner was having a seizure!

I can't believe Ginger is almost one! What do I do to celebrate? I did realize today I don't take enough pictures of her or the kids. I'm going to work on that. Typically I think when we are out we are having too much fun to stop and take pictures. … (4 comments)
My intent is not to make a "oh, look how cute our dog is post" but to talk about real business lessons!
Often, as real estate professionals, we get so bogged down in offering guidance in complicated contracts, numbers, property values, and market trends. But today, I would like to offer one reminder that is so simple...
After an incredibly crazy busy week I needed a laugh and want to share it with you. Twice!

The Dog Days of Summer
Everyone knows that the "dog days of summer" occur during the hottest and muggiest part of the season. If you are in the Midwest, you might be more acutely aware of what this means. Humid and steamy hot from July through early September.

As a Real Estate Broker and owner of a doggie day care in Trinity Florida, I have an interesting perspective on pets and showing property.
Life as a real estate broker can be very demanding and stressful, so it is a wonderful thing to have a constant in your life on which you can rely. For me, my miniature poodle, Awgy, has been a constant source of comfort for nearly 13 years. We got Awgy on … (16 comments)

I have always gotten great feedback when I do a shoot and the owners pets are in the shot. It comes from two sides. First the owner loves seeing their most favorite animal having its picture take and then for the world to see them on the fact sheets and web. … (4 comments)
I'm sure we all have our stories we can relate to showings that have gone haywire. I wanted to relay this one from when I just started in the business. I believe about my first or second month in the business I was showing houses to a young couple in the … (0 comments)

While our lives are often consumed with Real Estate, we would like to share a few personal things first.
These hot summer days are not actually for the dogs at all, especially here in North Texas. Imagine a steamy tropical beach; the rays beating down, the heat rising from scorched sand. Now imagine you enjoying it all in a fur coat that you can't take off! Yikes! Even though it … (2 comments)
When I was about 7 years old, my family got a dog. My oldest brother, T, had just come back from a trip to Mexico so he suggested a spanish name for the dog: Chico. Chico, so he thought, meant "little boy", and it seemed like an ironically appropriate name for the … (2 comments)
This is an incredible video to watch, sure to make you smile. I wonder how long it takes to train and HOW do you train - I would be happy just to have my Siberian Husky "Khali" off leash! Although not trainable (at least for me) I still think she … (2 comments)

One listings had a houseful of pets. You went through the entry sideways because of the rabbit hutch. The living room was a zoo - literally. Every little creature had contributed to the unusual aroma in the house. I suggested they take one of two actions: reduce the price substantially or … (14 comments)
My computer history sarted in Highschool. The "Computer Room" contained one computer. To use the computer you had to write your own program in FORTRAN on punch cards. Each line of code went on one punch card. Once the program was written, the stack of cards was loaded into the … (8 comments)

Missoulians love their pets and there are many places that are pet friendly in Missoula.
If you can see my photo, you know I love dogs (I'm the Broker, he's the barker)... so don't take this the wrong way. My miniature schnauzer Clyde is a typical, excitable smaller breed dog. If I was to sell my home, I would make sure Clyde was properly crated or … (8 comments)
Are you thinking of adding a dog to your life. What a wonderful gift you'll be giving yourself. I am a dog lover, and am particularly partial to Golden Retrievers. They are known for their willingness to please, their gentleness with children and elderly, and their overall good-natured temperament.
This is to introduce Fred (nicknamed Bubbas). I hope you can see the personality in his face, his smile, his eyes and his ears that I can see. He actually speaks to us with his mannerisms.

Dogs are people too. Well, to some folks they are. And to most people their pets are part of the family (just as my Yuki is). Today I want to talk about some considerations when buying or renting a home if pets are part of the family.
