howell home inspection

What more can be said?  This home inspector delivered two of these trays and sat them on our table at our office.  If he brought them to us, he must have taken them to all of the real estate offices. 

He left his card and I'm putting it on this blog.  I've used him and like him.  How can you not like a home inspector who brings treats!!!  I also like for them to bring brochures so that the brochure can be placed in the hands of the buyers so they can make the selection themselves.

My feeling very strongly is that we can not choose the inspector.  We need to give the buyers a list and they can call, interview, and choose who they'd like.  Brochures, I find, are more powerful than just a card.  I hope Charlie brought brochures too because I sure like his methods!!!

Mrs Barbara,

I deliver fruit and nuts to the bosses clients. Sometimes they boot me back out the door.

Barbara,

I have just one questions is your home inspector licensed in Florida?

I have a buyer right now who ignored my list of home inspector referrals and went online to find his own. God help him. He's headed for disaster. He found a web site with lists of inspectors and customer recommendations. He has no idea whether any of those home inspectors are any good because most individuals get one or two home inspections in their lifetimes and have no clue how to rate an inspector. I know this guy picked some loser because the home is being painted, and when he told the inspector that, the inspector said he can't do a complete home inspection while work is going on.

Lenn, I must admit that I ate a strawberry or two before I snapped this picture.  The agents made short work of the whole thing! 

Charlie, it does make one hungry, doesn't it?

Lizette, that is an excellent idea.  A list of home inspectors on my web site would be great.

Nutsy, a fruit delivering nuts can cause people to panic.  OFF WITH THE FRUIT SUIT!!!!!!

Laura, no fair.  We're not gonna share!

Sash, thanks.

Elizabeth, but you are off the hook.  He can't blame you if the person doesn't get a deal.

Barbara, I have to admit that I don't give out goodies to my Realtors, but I certainly like his choice of goodies. I may have to think on this for a while ...

Very nice treat. I have an office where rarely agents come in! They're all out working and work mostly from home. So I'd be forced to eat that whole tray pretty much by myself!

Suesan, these were expensive looking trays, too.  I don't know how it would be affordable to take them to each office....if he did.

Erica, how many agents do you have?  Thanks for comment.

Mrs Barbara,

Did you see the revealing photos of cousin Swindle-berry that my boss has been using as graphics at his blog. I took the photos myself. You can use them too if you want.

Erica, you're not crowded!  Nice sized office, I'd say.

James, that wouldn't happen because there'd be too many hands grabbing the food!

Nutsy, I've been trying to figure out that picture.  At first I thought it was some squirrel hugging himself and covering his face.  Then.....and then.....I figured out the squirred is mooning me!!!!!!  Have you no respect for all of us on this blog site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Why did your boss allow this?????

Carol, what a nice comment to go under than disgraceful mooning squirrel above!

Yes it is comfortable. Not many toes to step on! Each one has a little specialty or edge ... and the calls are divided by WHO SERVES THE CLIENT BEST, not  a crap shoot.

I have them from different geographical areas. 2 of the 4 are comfortable with investor, 2 won't touch them. Only one handles commercial. Each has a specialty.

Mrs Barbara,

My boss had me shoot the photos for his "rude blog". He wanted a rude raspberry and Swindle-berry has been known for years as a squirrel who moons. The boss is so manipulative. He asks for the photo, I think it is okay to use it, now I am at risk of being cut out of your lucrative estate plan. Sometimes Nutsy cannot win one. I feel like General Custard.

Barbara,

what's a little mooning among friends?...huh?

I say Nutsy shouldn't have to worry about being taken out of your estate.

What do you say?!

Mr Tony,

Thank you so much for the support. It is the least you can do in light of the fact you, at one point, planted a seed of doubt in Godmother Barbara's mind about my intentions. You are now getting back in my good graces. Nutsy is getting a soft spot for you.

Erica, you're the boss!!  A good one, sounds like.

Nutsy, you're making excuses.  You know a mooning squirrel is not good for a family blog.  I don't believe Mr. Steve would give you that assignment.  Now Mr. Charles would, hoping you'd get thrown in detention for awhile.    But I've got important things on my mind.  I'm working on Mr. Tony O to perhaps take over some of my perilous duties as godmoma.  I mean.....you could sure use a godfather.  What do you think??????

Tony O., what do you think of being a godfather??

Mrs Barbara,

I think we ruled Mr Tony out due to his admission that he does not have the assets necessary to be my Godfather.

Nutsy, he may be hiding assets......don't rule him out yet.
