My friend, Andrew McElyea with Gateway Mortgage Group, sent me this photo of an opossum he trapped in his back yard. The opossum was not friendly with Andrew's dogs and Andrew very kindly assisted him with relocation to a more opossum-friendly area.
Seeing the little guy, who I've nicknamed 'Barney', caught in this trap reminded me of the challenges of relocation. Whether you are moving across town or across the country, moving carries with it a very high stress-factor.
I'll let you in on a little secret: you can minimize the stress by selecting a great Realtor. If you're moving and have a home to sell, ask your listing Realtor for a referral to the city where you're moving. Most great Realtors have a wonderful network of agents across the country (and sometimes internationally) to assist you. You'll be doing them a favor by asking for a referral.
If you don't have a home to sell, find a great Realtor who can help you find the ideal home.
If you feel overwhelmed by the process, like little Barney in the photo (he looks overwhelmed, doesn't he?), give me a call or drop me an email with your questions and concerns. I have a great D/FW relocation guide I can send to you. I've moved around most of my life so I can definitely commiserate with the fear and trepidation of relocating and will help you feel at peace about all of the moving parts.
