Pinterest--How's This for Looking at Lawrence Kansas Houses For Sale?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Pinterest is a way to look at things through "pins" (photos) of everything that are "eye candy". After all, pictures are worth a 1000 words. Real estate has lots and lots of eye candy as shown above but I still feel words are needed since "pins" can't tell you everything such as how far is this eye candy from I-70 or how many fireplaces are there or how many bedrooms or what is the price and so on. So feast on the photos, pin them if you like, but then … (1 comments)

homes: We're Running Out of Houses to Sell--Seller's Market!! Part Two - 06/25/12 05:03 AM
Pending closings right now is 350 homes.  This is up 64.3% since June 2011's 213 pending closings.  So many houses are going under contract and not enough sellers are putting their house back on the market because they don't have enough equity in them due to so many of them having bought their house so recently in the past few years.
Housing shortages and high demands drives prices higher which the median price increase in my last blog shows so if you are looking to buy a house, now is the time to buy as selections will be fewer and prices … (16 comments)

homes: Lawrence Kansas Student Housing Real Estate Tips - 09/14/08 11:16 AM
After becoming the national basketball champions this year, there probably aren't too many people who haven't heard of the University of Kansas, aka KU.  There are several other colleges in the area within a 5 to 40 minute drive so there is quite a bit of student housing that is needed; especially in Lawrence Kansas.
What many students interested in off campus student housing have found out is that they can help pay off the landlord's mortgage or they can buy a place (either on their own or with the help of parents) and build up some equity for themselves.  Lawrence Kansas real … (0 comments)

homes: All Realtors® need to stop selling homes - 11/17/06 02:38 AM
If I walk up to a consumer and try to sell them a new watch or a new car or in my line of work a new home, I will always fail.  It's all psychological.  It's all in their head.  Consumers are looking at things from the perspective of "NO SOLICITING", "DO NOT CALL", etc.
However, if we turn the tables around and put ourselves in their shoes, and answer the question, "What will we be doing at 5am the day after Thanksgiving?", we have a different word that comes to mind.  No it's not sleep (come on now, play along), it's "BUY!"
