- 01/27/13 02:18 AM
The Couch Killed More Real Estate Careers Than The Great Recession--
Once again, there are fewer agents in my board than in the previous year. Real estate practice has been "fun" the past few years, but one obstacle looms above the rest...
That's right, the big comfy couch! Like Jaws trolling off a popular beach, the comfy couch consumes agents with wild abandon. Got nothing in the pipeline? Then why go to the office? Hopefully someone will call to list their home, just not during The View.

Don't Watch Us Make The Escrow Sausage
As a middle school student I had the opportunity to visit a slaughterhouse. After touring the hallowed halls (and watching how meat got to my plate), it was a while before I consumed sausage again. Let's examine how buying or selling a home can be similar to a slaughter house.
1) People assume a contract means the end of the process-- Imagine their surprise when they discover that negotiation occurs again after inspections. Ever negotiated the repair costs of a "pop-off valve"? I have, and sadly it took more than one round to … (2 comments)

Have You Hugged Your Golden Goose Today?
"Hey Doug, would you mind meeting the movers at our house today"? A simple request from a golden client. What was my reward for unlocking a door and meeting the movers? Yep, an Outback gift card and some Sam Adam's beer. All for doing a job that I get paid very well for doing...
If your eyes are better than mine, read the note these folks wrote on the Outback card. If it wasn't so cliche I would say there was a tear in my beer.

top real estate agent in alexandria la: Real Estate Is Just More Fun With A Parrot On Your Shoulder
- 12/31/12 09:19 AM
What was my biggest change in 2012? Why Prince the Parrot of course! It seems like only yesterday that the family was driving to the airport to pick him up. What agent doesn't need a Blue-Front Amazon on his team?
Prince is the perfect real estate assistant. He blows kisses, showers everyday, shreds documents like a pro, and works for crackers.
Don't you wish YOUR real estate assistant sought only belly rubs and peppers?
There has been drama. When the phone rings he "helps" me answer. Nothing sounds more professional than a parrot talking in the background. Especially when the … (8 comments)
