Where she is working in the chocolate factory and the assembly line starts going faster and faster and she tries to cope with the increasing speed. She starts by neatly organizing the candy in the boxes, carefully placing each morsel. As the speed increases, she copes with it by shoving the candy in the boxes by the handful and when the speed is increased yet again, she starts stashing it in her shirt and her mouth. It was a hilarious episode that had the audience in stitches.
That was me this week. Activity here is at a feverish pitch. Frenzied "looking"; less contracts; less accepted contracts; and even less closings. The buyers are nervous and they are slow to pull the trigger. The lenders can put fewer and fewer deals together. It's tough!
We still do a lot of business, but we work a lot harder for it. A new product that is really gaining momentum is the "lease to own". If you are not adept at that, I highly recommend that you garner that education. It is a wonderful opportunity for both buyers and sellers. I will blog more about it in the future.
For short sales, we have found a good company to mediate them. We share our listing commission with them 50-50, but they make it happen for us and our clients. I will blog more about that subject soon.
