real estate: THE LITTLEST SALE IS ALWAYS THE MOST DIFFICULT! - 10/04/10 05:01 PM
I've never had a mobile home listed for sale before and when my dear former clients called and asked if I would put their home on the market, I didn't hesitate.   The place is in amazing condition and even has a grand piano in the living room.
I listed it for sale at $84,500 and had an offer the very first day!  Hurray, rejoicing all around.  Not so much cheering when this offer fell apart. 
Not to worry . . .  offer #2 arrives a few days later.  Then offer #3 & #4 also crashes and burns.   What I didn't realize is … (22 comments)

Gananoque, ON
As promised in my earlier blog, effective Canada Day 2010, I had selected a few local charities for the purpose of giving back to the community through my real estate business, allowing my Buyers and Sellers to feel more a part of the town.   For each closed transaction I decided to provide $150 broken down as follows:   
The first $50 to the local charity of my choice and
the second $100.00 being chosen by my clients.

real estate: SURVEY SAYS . . . WHO DO WE TRUST? REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS ??? - 04/17/10 05:22 AM
No matter what poll you're reading, we in the Real Estate business don't seem to fare very well in public opinion.  This month's Reader's Digest has an interesting article "Renewing the Public Trust" and in the category of the "Most Trusted Industries",  Real Estate doesn't even make the list!!!!  This is disturbing as  Cellular phone companies came in at # 28 and Tobacco companies #29 !!
In the "professions we trust most" section, we ranked #36 with Psychics, Politicians, Car Salespeople and telemarketers falling behind us.   Plumbers were ahead of us at #20 - what's that all about?

real estate: 3 YEARS THESE BUYERS WAITED FOR THIS HOME - 09/05/09 03:34 AM
There once was a lovely property that would not sell.  On the market it sat for more years then I care to say.  It was NOT listed with me but I did show it on occassion.  It seems I was the only one who showed it because when the listing expired (finally) I was called to list it for sale.  Now this story took place 3 years ago.  Within 1 month I had a Buyer with an offer to purchase.  The Buyers, who made the first offer to us, lost out because their agent couldn't get their existing home sold in time.  … (26 comments)
