Market is Up, I am Down

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices | Pen Fed Realty 3107554

After 3 days of being with 3 different sets of buyers this past weekend, I can only tell you that I am learning the market so well.  The more you know the inventory the better.  I worked with a house buyer on Friday, a condo buyer on Saturday, and another home buyer on Sunday.  Nothing on paper yet, but they will.  They each had to go back home think about the options, talk with their lenders (which are closed today) and then move ahead from there.  The market is definately showing good signs of picking up.  Occupancy rates in the area were also up over Valentine's Day weekend.

What is down is me.  I woke this morning with a fever, the chills, and have had to stay close by to the bathroom if you know what I mean.

I had a lot of follow up work to do today and great expectations of myself.  However, even I need a day off every now and then.

Thank you to all of the very nice Realtors who are so caring out there.  My phone rang and it was a new lead.  Woke me up.  Got my bearings and already sent him some properties.  Back to bed for me now.  Why am I so cold?  I live in Florida for gosh sakes.  I know this too will pass.  I will be glad when it does.

Take some time off.  I hope you feel well soon.  I had some  type of bug last week and just rested up.

To Jim Crawford,

You know you are right Jim.  I work all of the time.  I am feeling weak but better today.  Slowly I think I am past the worst of it now.  I swear I must work an average of 12-13 hours a day every day and have for some time now without any type of vacation at all.  I miss vacations in the traditional sense.  I love what I am doing, but really should step back now and then.  The market is just now taking off again and I don't want to miss the wave.

Things have definitely been picking up for us too. Great that you had back to back buyers. Stay in bed, rest and drink lots of fluids. Maybe your body needs this rest now to get ready for all those contracts you'll be writing and more buyers coming your way. Take care and feel better. P.S. Your photo is fabulous! Makes me miss the beach.
