YES!! I Made It To Page 2! - 06/29/10 03:15 PM
The real estate industry is a funny business, filled with unique personalities and hilarious situations that make it a constant three ring circus, and that's just on the advertising side of things!

When In Doubt, Lie Like A Rug! - 06/28/10 04:16 PM
How many times have you seen "JUST NEEDS A LITTLE TLC!"?
We all do it. We tell those little "white lies" that are not really a lie, but just a kinder of saying things, right? WRONG!There are so very many things the a Realtor is not allowed by law to say, and they are really good about avoiding those 99.9% of the time. On the other hand there are many things that a Realtor should not say, and those, well they are not so good about sometimes. One of the things Realtors are most infamous for is prettying up the truth … (8 comments)

Ha! Take that you blond! - 06/26/10 03:05 PM
I don't know where this particular joke originated, or ever where I heard it first, but I love it! (Mostly cause it kinda sounds like something I would do!) An being blond it is my privilege, make that my root given right, to share it with you! I hope it makes you laugh and brightens your weekend! Enjoy!
 
A semi drive is minding his own business, just pleasantly engrossed in the task of hauling his load from point A to point B. Then without warning a little red sports car driven by a gorgeous blond ruthlessly cuts him off.

Thanks For The Cold! - 06/25/10 05:02 PM
Thanks for the help, but not the cold! I am willing to bet that there has been many a time that we have all wanted to say this to someone. Personally, there are some people that I would like to say that to right now! So instead of just sitting here sipping herbal tea while praying that I don't actually hack up a lung, and generally feeling sorry for myself, I'm going to help you avoid putting your clients through this and other uncomfortable circumstances.We all do things that we should probably not, like eating more than one dessert or fibbing … (20 comments)

So You Are Showing A House. . . . Wearing THAT? - 06/23/10 04:19 PM
Fashion has become a term that means many things, it covers everything from your personal style to what is hot (and what is not) to the creation of one of a kind works of art. Very word evokes mental images of razor thin, pouty lipped beauties strutting down the runway in scandalously daring couture. . . But in this case, that's not the particular application of the term I am thinking of, sorry!  I'm focusing on the meaning of the term that applies to appropriate clothing choices for the properties you are selling. And why? Believe me I know the one … (15 comments)

Is That A Rug Or A Rat? - When It's Time To Re-Do Your Decor - 06/21/10 02:36 PM
Have you ever had some one say the following, or anything similar to it?
"EEEEK!..... Oh.... Sorry! I thought your rug was trying to eat my purse."
If so, it's probably time for a stylistic update for the homestead. Instead of burying the offensive decor item that so offended your guest, set it free (or at least chuck it in the trash) and get a new design outlook that will brighten your life considerably.  Evaluating your style - Is it really all that bad?You love your home! It is comfortable, cozy and stylish. . . or is it? Like anything else … (2 comments)

I'm Not Stalking You . . . My Blackberry Is! - 06/18/10 11:08 AM
As a Realtor it is your job to help people find new homes or to help them sell the one that they currently have, and in order to do that job properly you need to follow up with them on a regular basis, right? Emails, texts, phone calls, saying hi when you see them in the street and maybe even the occasional dropping by to say hello are completely normal, but at what point does just following up turn into stalking? Yep, that's right, I used the big scary S word. Stalking. Let's explore ways to keep you in contact with … (10 comments)

The New Six Gun: The Smart Phone - 06/16/10 03:05 PM
As a Realtor there is a huge list of things that are vital to keeping your business thriving and your clients happy. Generating leads, cultivating a client relationship from those leads and keeping your clients satisfied are probably the three most important things on your Realtor to-do list, aside from actually listing and selling real estate of course! Trying to keep up with everything and everyone is incredibly hard work, so what can you do to make it easier on yourself? Get a smart phone. Seriously.While a handwritten note is a lovely gesture, the time and energy it diverts away from … (4 comments)
