If you have recently purchased a home in Lawrence, KS, you should have it inspected by a licensed mechanical inspector. There are many inspectors and optional inspection types to choose from. To help find a licensed inspector and understand the different types of inspections available to buyers, I maintain a list of local Lawrence home inspectors on my website as well as contact information for service providers for any specialized inspections you might require.

lawrence: Change your clocks and say hello to old clients. - 02/01/07 02:33 AM
This year it's even more important to remind people of the time change.... Why?  Because on August 8, 2005, President George W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This Act changed the time change dates for Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. Beginning in 2007.
Starting this year the change takes place several weeks earlyer then normal in the early morning hours of Sunday March 11.  Clocks 'spring' forward 1 hour from 1:59:59 to 3:00:00.
Take this oportunity to stay in touch with your clients and remind them to change the batteries in their smoke alarms as well.

A few months ago we started to plan a day trip for the family.  Being the proud new owners of a cute minature poodle, it dawned on us that we didn't really know what to do with if no one was going to be around to watch after him all day long... he was only 12 weeks old!  We started searching around for options and calling people we knew with smaller dogs for their input. Once we collected all the great suggestions we went out to investigate our options.  We looked at several boarding kennels around Lawrence and eventually ended up at … (1 comments)

lawrence: Over priced home in Lawrence, KS gives buyers a great deal! - 01/29/07 09:13 AM

This home had severe mechanical problems, such as a support wall in the basement that needed to be replaced.
It had been overpriced and sat on the market for months before the sellers lowered the price... again and again.Finally, the price was reasonable for a home that was in good mechanical shape and I took my buyers to see it.We made an offer that reflected the current mechanical condition of the home and asked for repairs.
The offer was accepted and my clients had instant equity!

   Last year we had the opportunity to baby sit... or should I say doggie sit our neighbor's lhasa apso, named Enzo, while our neighbor was out of town.
  My husband suggested to me that I was going to meet quite a few people walking such a spunky dog...
  Not only was my husband right (how often can a woman say that!) but the first day I met a man who was moving to Australia and needed to sell his house ASAP...
  But the story doesn't end there... his house was perfect for one of my buyers who ended up buying it … (8 comments)
