Here is a positive story for you all. One of my RE/MAX colleagues, Denny Friesen received a floor call a few months ago from an elderly gentleman who wanted to sell his home. After chatting with him on the phone for some time he drove over to the property to do a CMA. What he found was a man who was "trapped" in his own home.

Ouch...I am still sore! We had our 1st annual softball tourney with all the other real estate offices, the RCMP, and the Chilliwack Firefighters.
