Crossing Over

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker

bridgeI have safely gotten my friend over to the other side. It was not easy as there was much baggage to toss before even trying. A great plan was needed, prepared and followed. Other trusted companions were asked to help with the viechle used to make the journey. The trip was hazardous at best, pushing the limits of my friends worries as there was unforeseen obstacles arise. He learned new strengths in himself along the way and has shared them with me. I shall jealously guard them.  Crossing that threshold smiling was a proud man.

I love my job!!

Ahh, the joys of watching someone grow.  I'm curious now, too?  Where is that bridge located???

Seems like the covered bridge stole the attention.  I am glad you were a strong influence and help in your friend's life.  It's wonderful to be able to make such a positive difference and that's one thing I really like about real estate.  We have so many opportunities to do that for people.  Now about that covered bridge ?...   Is the one on Concord Road still there?  Nice picture.

What a gorgeous picture, and as Monika said, it makes me think of some of the many we have up here in NH and in Vermont - just beautiful!

Nicole, my wife took it on a fishing trip last year in Tennessee. Exactly where we don't remember.

Charles, yep a first time buyer. Hope you and yours had a swell weekend too.

Nancy, I'll be sure to call you the next time we run out that way.

Donna, the Concord covered bridge is still there and looks as pretty as ever.

Thanks Ann we might visit up there this spring.

Jennifer you make me  blush.

Keith,

Great job!! I love the covered bridge photo. We have quite a few of those up here in the north-east. They can be just as worrisome as buying that first house. Great analogy.

Keith, very cool. Now that I know this is about a buyer, I think it is a fitting comparison. With buyers, we truly have to serve and educate and comfort them through the process. It is part of the job and it is also very rewarding.
