I'm just feeling all mushy and happy to be here. I have been enjoying re-connecting with all my friends and colleagues here in the rain and I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

lake conroe homes: Approval For Financing? Not Till I Find a House!
- 06/29/11 07:25 AM
How many times have you heard this? It is one of my personal pet peeves and it's getting worse and worse. I remember the days when all I asked was, "How's your Credit?" and with the right answer off we would go! Even I felt comfortable showing homes without an Approval Letter. No biggie. Obviously, today is totally different. Yes, I would love to show them houses if they are able to BUY! How many times has your "potential client" said, "I am not going to have any trouble getting a home," in response to your questions? I then go on … (22 comments)

- 06/28/11 01:50 PM
"The other girls there were DOGS! I was the best looking one there! I am exhausted! What a girl has to do to keep herself looking gorgeous these days! They worked on my nails, cut and washed my hair, cleaned my under bite and other various things a girl shouldn't mention here. I begged not to have to go there as I liked myself just the way I was till Mom threatened to use me as a mop to clean her floor. Can you imagine that? Me? I was offended. In fact, after getting back home {finally} Mom dragged me … (13 comments)

lake conroe homes: Lake Conroe Golf Courses Suffer During Drought~
- 06/17/11 08:59 AM
Southern Texas is being reported as "critical" when referring to lack of rainfall and in our Lake Areas we are experiencing one of the worst droughts in recent history! The University of Lincoln, Nebraska publishes a DROUGHT MONITOR that shows us to be in the Highest Level of Drought. They have labeled us "EXCEPTIONAL". With our temperatures soaring over three digits and the power of the sun even watering is not providing our vegetation with enough to survive. We have, from the beginning of 2011, only been blessed with 15% of our normal year to date rainfall. We are on catastrophic … (4 comments)
lake conroe homes: Who's That Sleeping In My Bed?
- 06/17/11 03:37 AM
After reading a post from Patricia Kennedy and reading the last line of her post I was reminded of an uncomfortable moment in my career. Pat's quote was, "Throughout my long real estate career, I've followed the advice of that wise instructor at "The Academy", as the alum still fondly call it. And along with "The Realtor® always knocks twice," it's one of the most important things we learned."(referring to light). Read her post here. My answer to that quote is, "don't you know it!" As most of us do, I have many a story about "interesting" showings and her quote … (21 comments)
lake conroe homes: So, Listen Weather, cool it!
- 06/14/11 02:02 PM
Are you ALL in Texas? Or, possibly in a wonderful temperate climate? Jeesh. I climbed into my car in the garage this evening to run to the store and the car showed the temperature at 89º and I thought...hmmm...not too bad! As the car pulled out of the driveway the temperature climbed and climbed and climbed. I don't mean to be repetitious but it climbed to 103º at which moment I was questioning my good judgment about leaving. I am imagining that the summer here in Texas is a great deal like the winter in Michigan! I am beginning to … (17 comments)
lake conroe homes: Like a Duck to Water...
- 06/10/11 06:44 PM
When I first received my license to sell Real Estate I immediately became a Realtor® and I felt as if I had found my calling in life. I was right. I love this business. All of this business. I have become stronger and have found that I can even say "no" when I need to. I love the people I run across even if they don't become a buyer. When I took this photo and viewed it what I thought of was just this. I love what I am doing. I took to the Real Estate business Like a Duck to … (13 comments)
lake conroe homes: Add Color To Your Real Estate
- 06/06/11 11:26 AM
Real Estate is a colorful business don't you think? I like the old saying, "Color Your Life {fill in the blank}, whether it be red or blue or orange or all the colors of the rainbow. I read a post today from a good friend of mine that laid it out pretty darned well. Joni Staples wrote: ATTENTION Waterfront Buyers! OPEN UP! and it really hit home with me. We obviously share the same views (no pun intended) on getting to know our clients. As she mentioned, so many potential clients begin their search for homes by Internet and even want … (10 comments)

lake conroe homes: Does This Home Make Me Look Fat?
- 06/04/11 02:20 PM
We are all aware that McDonald's Franchises have infiltrated our US and have the finest Real Estate possible. Location, location, location....right? I was so hungry for breakfast this morning while driving back from Wichita Falls, that yet again I found myself trapped in their web of deceit. There it was, easily accessible at the perfect exit for a quick stop, a quick meal and a break and then to jump right back on the Interstate without missing a beat. The Golden arches were towering above and beyond any of the other signage and I guess a bit of their Marketing Campaigning worked … (84 comments)

lake conroe homes: FEMA And The New Flood Zone Creates Havoc In Real Estate
- 04/23/11 03:42 PM
Realtors Beware! You may find yourself coming up against the same brick wall I did this week. You see, we had answered a prayer for one of my clients that is elderly and wants to move up North to join her family. We celebrated because the Buyer and Seller were so very happy...listen to this one now. I actually had an accepted offer on her home within 45 days of listing and they were thrilled! Everything was in place and the Buyer and her agent were scheduling the Inspections and all was right with the world. Right that is till we received … (58 comments)
lake conroe homes: Good Night MOM and Why should I buy Real Estate? by Deb Brooks
- 12/02/10 05:01 PM
Why should I buy Real Estate? Now that's a good question. Why? IMHO, if everyone jumped outside the box, realized their fear and began stimulating the economy right now then we could avoid a total crash. Just my opinion really. I found this great way to communicate with a mix of fun and technology and I hope you will enjoy it. Go to Xtranormal.com and open a free account. They will allow you to produce your own movie in real time with your words. The words that came to me were, of course, all about Real Estate. Why should I buy … (13 comments)

Posting on Active Rain has truly brought me many surprises. Leads, home sales, listings and friends have all come from the posts I have published. I love it. Thank you Active Rain for helping us reach out all over the world! My cell phone rang yesterday as I was getting ready to show Lake Livingston property and it was an articulate gentleman calling from Baghdad, Iraq in the Green Zone. My first reaction when I heard Baghdad, Iraq was "aw -oh" I do not want your rich Uncle's funds placed in my bank account! But then what a surprise. It was a true … (13 comments)

Sometimes you just have to have a little fun along with the work. We have a wonderful web site and partly thanks to Active Rain and all of our Google juice that remains at the top of the Search Engines. I was looking at the site the other day and I thought it just needed a little pick me up.

Hot Property! Now is the time to purchase Lake Conroe Property. Lake Conroe Real Estate has never been a Hotter Commodity at a better price than it is today!
