And Miles To Go Before I Sleep (With Apologies To Robert Frost & The Bard)

take me homeAnd Miles To Go Before I Sleep (With Apologies To Robert Frost & The Bard)

When you're a real estate agent who works with buyers, you'll quickly tally up the miles on your car.  While late October is supposed to be the "slow" time of the year in Warren County, it was anything but slow for us today.  Three different buyers, 7 homes shown, and 140+ miles added to the car. 

Condos, older homes, newer homes, it was all in the mix!  Some of those homes have been on the market for months (and will probably be on the market for months more), others for just a couple of  days and we won't be surprised to see them under contract by Monday.  The best homes priced right STILL move fast even as the leaves finish their annual color change and hold a convention on our lawns covering the grass in a matter of a few hours!

Our job is to guide our clients, sometimes literally (follow me to the next house), sometimes with a gentle nudge about what a great value a particular home is (when we can truthfully say that) so they don't miss their opportunity at THE ONE.

So we drive paths scenic and not so scenic, looking for THE ONE for each and every buyer we're privileged to serve, in different cars over the years because those miles add up quickly, but sooner or later, we wind up in our own home's driveway, hoping that today was the day we helped someone find THE ONE for them. 

And soon, to sleep, perchance to dream :)

B'Liz, this is a really sweet post!  It's making me feel a little sleepy - like crawling into a warm bed right now!

We're pretty busy late into our year too.  I've added quite a few miles this year.

Yes, I've been putting tons of miles on my car.  Can't wait for Thanksgiving when it finally slows down.

BLiz: For all the miles traveled and homes seen, it is always worth it when a buyer says this is THE ONE.

Pat, I have to say I slept well last night :)  & Thanks for including us in your post!

Sally, We always hope to find THE ONE that day.  Sometimes we do, other times the search continues.

Tammy, It's a good "problem" to have :)

Debbie, I know it WILL eventually slow down, but not sure how long it'll be here.

Belinda, Today was much calmer!

Anita, It's always a good feeling!

Now is the time of year that I don't dread long days in the car showing homes. It's finally starting to cool down!

"So we drive paths scenic and not so scenic ..." One of my favorite parts of working with buyers is showing them the shortcuts or special amenities in and around their neighborhood that you can't get from reading a map. The miles are worth it.

Dorie, It's a very worthwhile feeling to know you've helped someone get the home they can be happy in for years and years.

Nicole, Thankfully Arizona heat is NOT something I have to contend with.

John, The "insider" secrets, shortcuts, best pizza, etc., are just another service a solid agent who knows the area can provide.
