Facebook in Huntsville TX Real Estate and More!  WHO is Yul Brynner?!
 
Social Media---Social + Media. Fast track to "getting to know you, getting to know all about you" (okay---how many of you heard the song from the "King and I" in your head???) It's a different world than Cary Grant's of "Judy, Judy Judy" fame or Yul Brynner whose most famous role was the King of Siam in "The King and I."
See--half of you don't even know who Yul Brynner OR Cary Grant is. For the first time in my life (well, maybe not the first), I'm not the … (0 comments)

 Immigrant Dreams : from Croatia to PA to TX : the Gift of Freedom and a New Life is Born at Ellis Island
My Grandfather, born Viecoslaw Zuvic, later Louis Zuvich came through Ellis Island with a dream, like so many.  He not only held a job, but was a supervisor, and never learned English.  Talk about your great communicators.  The tongue of my family is Serbo-Croatian, the "umbrella language" of the former Yugoslavia.
Viecoslaw means "forever glorious."  I will never forget because I looked through the Ellis Island manifests for a long time and never found "Louis Zuvich."  Well, it … (19 comments)

Texas: Walker County: Huntsville: A Day with Mari Montgomery at Keller Williams Huntsville...and "Gina, NOT Typing!"
Okay, I consider myself to be reasonably astute--most of the time, at least.  So, when I heard a cacophony of "clackety--clackety--clack," I thought: "THAT is someone, PRETENDING to type."
I feel that was a "reasonable" conclusion.
Of course, once I decided to do an investigative report, Gina--our wonderful Receptionist at our office in Huntsville--decided to PRETEND to type.
Here is the Culprit--sitting on the antique fainting couch in my office-Gina (She looks guilty, doesn't she?!)

Well, I caught her "Clackety--Handed!"  Tell me what you think.  … (0 comments)

So much music fills my heart and my head these days. It really soothes my soul.  Even when I am "dog-tired," music is what inspires me in such a deep and personal way.
You know, ask my Keller Williams office mates---there is a little bit of singing every now and again at the Keller Williams Huntsville TX and Conroe / Lake Conroe offices. 
It's a reflex.  When I am singing, that means I am pretty happy.
Tonight....a song. One of my favorite songs. I recorded it in a small studio that I had the opportunity to have a recording session, however … (5 comments)

What is the difference between a Realtor and a Real Estate Agent? Hmmm...glad you asked.
Let's start with what Realtors and Real Estate Agents have in common.  Both are licensed to sell Real Estate.  What is the difference.
This is HUGE:
Realtors are bound by a code of ethics, whereas Real Estate Agents are not.  Why is this important to the consumer?  You can find out all the details by reading the code of ethics available at www.Realtor.org , but here's the gist: Realtors are held accountable by the NAR-National Association of Realtors Code of Ethics.  The National Association of Realtors … (3 comments)
