Working the W-B, Wilkes-Barre that is!!!

I received a phone call yesterday and was invited to a cookout at a client's house. It came at a great time for me, as I had a frustrating day of missed appointments and disappointments.

I have had a frustrating day of missed meetings and no shows and was thinking about how important communication is in our business. First of all, we have to admit that we are all human and are going to miss the mark quite often. We need to understand that not just about ourselves, but about other...

According to the appraiser, there can not be any old furnaces in the basement. I have a client buying a house in Kingston, PA that's fair...

I was wondering if I could get some info from any of the NC or SC Realtors out there about what it takes to transfer my license from PA. I'm considering a move back to the south and would either go to NC or SC. I'd like to get some info on what I need to do to transfer my license. Also, if there ...

I think so. So often these days we are faced with clients who don't speak English, or for one reason or another don't feel comfortable speaking English. I can't tell you how many times I've been at an open house or gotten a phone call and had a Spanish speaking person try to ask me questions abou...
