miranda real estate group: Let's Get Real: You Don't Have to Settle!
- 04/07/17 10:00 AM
As a member of Active Rain, we can participate in monthly contests. These contests often shed a lot of light on the participants... And this month’s might shed the most yet! We’ve been asked to share our pet peeves of being in the real estate profession. As defined, a peeve is something that: annoys, irritates, angers, irks, exasperates, tries patience, gets on nerves, ruffles feathers, etc. I’ve been thinking a lot about this. After some reflection, I’ve realized that, in general, I sadly seem to have a lot of pet peeves (not saying “good bye” before hanging up; hearing the phrase

miranda real estate group: Creating A Positive First Impression - Burden Of Proof Falls On Sellers
- 02/24/17 05:08 AM
For those of you that follow me on Facebook too, you know that I'm a "big fan" of first impressions. Having just returned from a family vacation, this concept was reiterated time and time again as we relied upon many others for service, meals & entertainment. But back to real estate, I can tell you without a doubt that the burden of proof DOES fall on SELLERS. Want to enhance the perceived value of your home & put more $$ in your wallet at closing? Take note of the recommendations below. It WILL make a difference. And as I found in

miranda real estate group: Why I love my job... Agent Brenda's tale
- 02/13/17 01:34 PM
During February, we've been asked to identify what we love about our jobs. First and foremost, I love that it’s not a job. It's a fulfilling career. Let's be honest here... Real Estate wasn't my first choice. For those of you who know me even a little bit, you know that my professional world began - & included nearly 2 decades - in healthcare. I worked with many incredible people & often did go home feeling good about the day. However, thinking back to my reaction when the weekday alarm went off, I can't say that I was in love with my

miranda real estate group: How's your Smile Inventory?
- 01/25/17 11:20 AM
As the mother of a very busy, high school student (not to mention a teenager!) communication is often limited... Ever since I can remember, my girls have been asked the same set of questions each school day. I'm not exactly sure how it all started but suspect there was some parenting column involved that planted the seed. So each day, I'd find out who they sat with on the bus, who they ate lunch with, which was their favorite class that day, etc. This year, I've found myself asking my high school sophomore two added questions: "Who made you smile today?" and "Who did you make smile

miranda real estate group: Paying it Forward... November 2016
- 11/06/16 09:56 PM
I had heard of Things of My Very Own (TOMVO) when I was looking for a place to bring some gently loved stuffed animals (I just can’t throw them out!). Since dropping off my 2 large bags of what I hope would be new friends and sources of comfort for some children I didn’t know, this charity site was “in my mind” as a potential place to routinely start sharing my time with... Fast forward to a few weeks ago and my daughter came home from one of her religious education classes with a flyer about a Parish Wide Morning of Service.

miranda real estate group: Yes My Dear, Real Estate DOES Require Communication
- 10/13/16 10:07 PM
As real estate agents, we spend LOTS of time in our cars... As a real estate agent who is also a "softball mom", I spend an "extra lot" of time in my car. With 2 daughters playing in the same season, in two completely different age groups, & one spouse who also doubles as a coach, my family is often split up heading to games and tournaments. My eldest quickly adapted to her role with me on road trips that she and I were alone on... Being my assistant. She became quite adept at knowing my style for responses and knew

Every once in a while something good shows up in my mailbox.... Once a month I can count on the delivery of New York State Realtor, the Official Publication of the NYS Association of Realtors.
