ginger harper real estate agent: If you are sitting on the fence..Get off and VOTE - 11/05/12 10:21 PM
I feel that this is a most important election.  I know that folks feel so strongly both ways.  This is our God given RIGHTS as AMERICANS to express our opinion. WE have the Right to CHOOSE our destiny as Americans.
 
If you are sitting on the fence and do not support one candidate or another...THINK what is in the BEST interest of our
Country and the American People.
 
Let YOUR VOICE be HEARD!
 
God Bless America

ginger harper real estate agent: BPO Companies are Harder to Please, Is that true for YOU Too? - 10/15/12 11:36 AM
  I don't know about you all, but I am having a harder time pleasing the BPO folks. I am giving them factual information based on our local MLS and the figures tell the truth. They are wanting us to go back and get closer comparable properties When nothing has sold in that area you must go outside that community to find comparable to do the analysis.
I am also finding, after I have done the work...they order has been canceled.
 
Then, we have spent our time and energy to do the work and will not be compensated for it.

ginger harper real estate agent: It's Another Monday in Southport~Oak Island - 09/24/12 07:10 AM
It's Another Monday in Southport~Oak Island
 
FALL is here. Temperatures have been in the 80 to 90's along the coast and Summer is over.
I do know that the fishing is good. WE have Drum, Flounder, Trout in the creek and they sure do taste mighty good when fresh caught and prepared for the frying pan. Fix a bit of cole slaw and cut your own french fries and fry...a few hushpuppies and you have a meal fit for a King or Queen. Lemon pie for dessert.
The time is here...come South for the joy of it.

ginger harper real estate agent: Closing today...Wahhoo... - 09/11/12 01:41 AM
WE work so hard to get to this point.
It makes all the difference in the world if you are working with good buyers and good sellers..
I was working with both.
YOu meet your sellers for a short time...and build a relationship and then you close and
you feel a sense of loss.
I am not going to loose these folks....they are keeper...
 
Do as Buffini says....let them send you referrals...
 
Have a great day,

ginger harper real estate agent: Grape Stomping Time - 09/08/12 02:19 AM
Well...This is the time of the year that the Grape Stomping takes place on Beaver Dam Creek in Southport, North Carolina.
For the past 4 days, we have been picking muscadin grapes, I have been stomping them (with very clean feet)..We are finding that is the easiest way to crush them.  Then the processing begins.
Stomped Grapes, Sugar, Sure jell...
Ending up with the best tasting jelly ever...
Fresh bread, real butter and fresh stomped grape jelly....Ah..the life...

ginger harper real estate agent: Condo Associations foreclosing on units - 04/02/11 10:33 AM
Condo Associations
Have you ever heard of a condo association foreclosing on a condo and then buying it with dues of the owners?
We are having something like that going on here and I do not know who to go to for help.  I can't help but think that this is wrong.  Have rules changed....if they have, I feel that human decency has eluded us.
I have great concern for the folks that lost their unit even though they were trying to work out a payment schedule with the association.

ginger harper real estate agent: How do I get a featured post on AR? - 03/31/11 09:34 AM
 
I am stilll trying to be successful with AR and try new things a lot.
I see where some of our folks get to have a featured post.  Is that measured from the content of the post, or the number of hits or what?
I read them and think that they had written an exceptional post and enjoy them.
Any hints or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Just wondering.

 I actually tried this before I chose to pass it on.  You may want to do the same thing.  It worked for me instantly.  I called and asked for Kerr Drug, Concord, NC ... immediately, I heard Kerr Drug on Church Street ( I smiled ) and then instantly Bob, the Pharmacist said, Kerr Drug Pharmacy. . . .this will save us money because it states that it is nationwide and absolutely FREE.  Leave it up to Google~

BUY AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS!
Subject: How to Read Bar Codes on Food . . .  This is very interesting & good to know as a safeguard.    ALWAYS READ THE LABELS ON THE FOODS YOU BUY--NO MATTER WHAT THE FRONT OF THE BOX OR PACKAGE SAYS, TURN IT OVER AND READ THE BACK---CAREFULLY! With all the food and pet products now coming from China , it is best to make sure you read labels at the grocery store and especially Walmart when buying food products. Many products no longer show where they were made, only give where the distributor is located. It is important to read the bar code to track it's … (4 comments)
