"There's a Rule of Thumb" ... When You plan to be Away, !!!???! - from Ocean City, NJ
When you plan to be away, or you know you will be leaving in a couple of days, that's when evrything comes out of the woodwork, something springs a leak, all kinds and sorts of problems arise without notice.
That was always true when I was a High School Principal ... and it is even truer being a realtor in his 22 year of work in this second career. I'm sure it is true in a lot of other areas as well ... but real estate tends to be the most amazing in terms of what can happen, when, and why.
Now I don't plan to talk about this in too much detail ... but I am willing to bet that every reader will agree that the same kind of thing has happened to them "over and over."
So what is my goal in all of this ... to try to adress the details, to try to put so much time-on-task as possible ... so when the time arrives, it will appear that most needs have been met.
So what am I really trying to say ... if you wait to leave before all of these details are cleared off the table, you probably will never have an opportunity to leave. The clear message is to remember that you will be back again. Try to manage some working arrangements so that someone is near and around to address some points ... if possible, try to be connected in some way via email or phone ... or the opportunity to check in on occasion. And mostly remember that all these items, leaks, problems will probably be around in some way the next time you plan to leave - you just have to live with it
