steiner ranch: Tips on succeeding as an INTROVERT...... from an INTROVERT
- 08/30/09 06:34 AM
Just a few tips from an INTROVERT on how I was able to pull this real estate career off as an EXTROVERT. Those who know me outside the real estate industry know me a very shy introvert who would rather be alone than in a crowd of people. My best friend calls me "THE WALKING DEAD". That is just me. Some outside of real estate may think I am moody.....some may think I am stuck on myself.....and some say I am the walking dead. In reality, I am just a quiet guy suffering severe chronic pain (just maybe another blog on … (8 comments)

steiner ranch: Austin is running out of water...... Can ANY of us REALLY depend on water 20 years from now?
- 08/21/09 06:40 AM
Though this notice if for one community in Austin, River Place on Lake Austin, it does pose the question of what will likely happen to not only cities, but states in the coming years to decades unless some major alternatives are designed. We will make it through this drought.....but what will happen in 25 years when our city population doubles? I don't have the answer, but it is pretty safe to say that our water source will be bone dry if we maintain our current system and another serious drought occurs. It is a concern that we all have been ignoring … (5 comments)

steiner ranch: Speachless Sunday: Just let yourself go.........
- 07/19/09 10:00 AM
It is times like these that the successful become more successful, and the stagnant stay stagnant. The successful see times like this as great opportunities to expand their business(es) more than ever as very few others are either able or willing to do so.
The tough part is to make that decision to make that big plunge further than you ever had before. It is so easy to say, this is the time to hold back and see where are the cards end up. I say this is the time where you can expand your … (10 comments)

steiner ranch: What does the DOW Jones Average have to do with a Farm?
- 07/17/09 08:25 AM
So what is the correlation of either the stock market or interest rates to your market? Or is it both? Or are you throwing darts at the wall for answers? I have been farming an area that has a price range from abut $300k to $4mm, with about 6000 homes for the past 15 years. (Californians: that is sizable amount of money outside CA). Though this has been my market I have also worked entry level housing as well. What I have noticed for the areas that I have farmed, is a break point of somewhere in the vicinity of about … (2 comments)

steiner ranch: So what is YOUR definition of a "LICENSED" or "PROFESSIONAL" repair????
- 07/15/09 10:00 AM
Here are a few of my favorite mistakes seen on contracts about items requested to be REPAIRED by the seller: The house is to be professionally cleaned Carpets to be professionally steam cleaned HVAC to be serviced by a licensed contractor Roof repairs to be repaired by a licensed roofer Plumbing repairs to be fixed by a licensed plumber OK, that's enough.....as this list could go on forever. So what is the problem with these lines. Did you catch it? OK, let's add a couple of questions for you. What does the word "Professional" mean? What does the word "Licensed" mean? As … (37 comments)

steiner ranch: Were you not told if you play with your model, it may break? It will.......
- 07/12/09 07:42 AM
Greed (or not cost effective thinking) may have cost me a sale on one of my listings this past week. I stopped working with buyers a few years back, and refer most buyers to our agents unless they have picked out a home in my neighborhood and want to make an offer......as long as it is not my listing. I never ever work with both sides of any transaction. I had to make a call back then as there was no way that I could effectively or efficiently come close to representing listing clients and buyer clients as well as they … (8 comments)
