I am the first one to admit that it is hard to be creative. We all go through periods where we got it or we don't! "This One Won't Last" I have seen a great deal on listings. Even if it is true, it is still a funny thing for me to see. I suppose it is due to the agents who have never gone back and updated their listings and they have been on the market over a year and still say, (say it with me) "This One Won't Last".

If it truly isn't going to last, why not say something like, "You better see it today or..." or "I am not kidding this time, get here fast". Also if you do use this phrase, isn't still just your opinion? The beauty of a home is in the eye of the buyer, not the agent.

I walked into a 1930 Bungalo that had very little updating since then and almost gave my thoughts when my buyers said that they thought it was really cute. Just like us buying a gift for someone and picking what we like instead of what they like, your buyers are the ones who have to like it, not us. The art of silence can truly be golden!

I always think it is funny to see in an old, old listing or one that is expiring.

I came thinking there'd be something new on your blog... nothing since May?  You came and made me laugh so I thought that was a hint you wrote something.  ;-(

Hey have you blogged about the Peace of Mind Program?  You guys have it don't you?  Were you and your office on the conference call / webinar yesterday?  I don't have a clue why all the Real Living franchises are not blogging on that one....of course those who were not active ActiveRain members b4 2-16-2009 (I believe that was the date) would need to be paying members to write about it here but you....
