Pros We Don't Think About: The Locksmith - 01/30/11 07:56 PM
One of my goals for 2011 is to create a master vendor list of professionals whom I will recommend to customers and clients.
Jason has an excellent point of bringing on a locksmith as one of those vendors.
Throughout the year I would like to offer specials to my clients. One trade-off idea might be to provide one "get out of jail free" card to your clients... A complimentary locksmith call.  They might use it when they lock their keys in the car or when they change locks on the house.
Maybe I could cut a deal with the locksmith to … (0 comments)

More John Wooden Quotes... - 01/29/11 09:04 PM
“Don’t worry about whether you’re better than somebody else, but never cease trying to be the best you can become. You have control over that; the other, you don’t.”
 
“Success is peace of mind which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to become the best of which you are capable.”
 
“The leader who has a fear of failure, who is afraid to act, seldom will face success.”
 
“Contentment with past accomplishments or acceptance of the status quo can derail an organization quickly.”

Illuminating Technology... Keeping us Bright! - 01/26/11 10:57 PM
I first heard that L.E.D. stood for “little electronic doo-dad.”  It has been amazing to see L.E.D. technology come to the forefront of everyday use in electronics and even household items!
 
The true definition of the L.E.D. acronym is “Light Emitting Diode.”
 
For Christmas, I received a package of smaller L.E.D. flashlights that simply amazed me! I have retired my larger old traditional flashlights.

You Read What!? - 01/25/11 11:47 PM
I should never under value the power of client testimonials!
 
Tonight, as usual, I asked this prospective seller where they got my name and number. They emphatically said, “From the Internet!”
 
I asked further to know what keywords, etc. and they couldn’t remember. They said they read some reviews and did some research and came up with me and my website.
 
The only reviews I can think of would be the client testimonials that I have on my site.

What if YOU didn't have to pay the Real Estate Commission!? - 01/24/11 10:01 PM
  “I would have called you sooner if I knew I didn’t have to come up with the real estate commission!”
 
I was amazed to hear this statement from a seller who is facing foreclosure. After you think about it, it seems somewhat obvious, that’s what a seller might think when needing to sell through a short sale.
 
When you consider the seller has missed several mortgage payments and has limited funds to live on, where would they get any money to pay their Realtor?

You Suspect Mold in a Home- What Should You Do? - 01/18/11 11:57 PM
There's no need for anyone to get scared and run away from a mold issue.

Do It With Intention! - 01/14/11 11:33 PM
As I watched a few college football games this season, it occurred to me that some teams/players “play to win” while others “play not to lose.”
 
You might wonder what the difference is. To me, it’s an attitude of greatness!
 
One team/player might be so overwhelmingly confident that they are going to win the game and most often do, while another may feel somewhat intimidated and their goal is to “not lose.”

You don’t hear of this too much these days and I wonder how many homeowners will actually have their house paid for in their life-time.

Can the lender come after you for the deficiency on your Idaho home? - 01/12/11 12:07 AM
Can the lender come after you for the deficiency on your Idaho home?
 
As a disclaimer, I am not an attorney, but I play one on TV…
 
According to Idaho code, a lender who has interest in a property, secured by a deed of trust, has 3 months to file suite to claim a money judgment on the deficiency of a defaulted loan after the sale date.
 
This is good news to home owners who have either had their property foreclosed on or sold through other means.

New Year's Day Tradition... Burning of the Tree - 01/01/11 07:33 PM
Every January 1st, for the past several years, we have had a tradition of disposing of the Christmas tree. We burn it! We do this for a few reasons: 1) It's an easy way to dispose of the tree, 2) It symbolizes the past year going away & bringing on a fresh start. 3) It's just a lot of fun.
