mcgraw realtors: The Oklahoma UFO
- 06/17/16 12:29 AM
When I say the word OKLAHOMA, what do you think of? Indians? Buffalo? TeePees? OU Sooner Football? OKC Thunder maybe? I'm pretty sure you don't think about UFO's right? I mean, that's area 51, Rosell New Mexico stuff right? Not Oklahoma stuff. And yet it is! The other day I went touring around the northern part of Greater Tulsa up around Oologah lake and Talala Oklahoma to see what Oklahoma looks like in the summertime. And not only did I find the Oklahoma UFO, but I found a couple of other things out about Oklahoma too. So come along as we discover that there's more to Oklahoma than what you (0 comments)
mcgraw realtors: A Fun Look at Home Buyer Inspections in Oklahoma
- 06/09/16 10:35 PM
If you've been in Real Estate very long, you know that there is a huge push to jump into video. Everyone says, "You gotta do video." "Video is the way marketing is going." "Get a drone and do cool video fly around stuff!" But the problem is that video is tricky. I mean, we've all seen those videos we've tried to do where we walk around and talk about the house right? How interesting can you be when you're holding a camera in front of you and talking about a bathtub that is from the 70's? The other problem is that being in front of the camera (17 comments)
mcgraw realtors: Are You a Phubber?
- 10/07/15 11:05 PM
Phubber. Phubbing. Phub. Odds are, you may not have heard this word yet. That's because it's a relatively new word. But even if you haven't heard the term, there's a pretty good chance you've been "Phubbed." Phubbing is the act of choosing to engage your phone rather than the person whom you are with. The word Phubbing comes from taking the words "Phone" and "Snobbing" and joining them together to form the word, "Phubbing." And it makes sense because if you're with someone and you're not engaged in your phone while they are in their phone, you find yourself feeling snobbed. Especially if you want (7 comments)
mcgraw realtors: I Am Your Pilot
- 09/17/15 10:44 PM
It's one of those movie scenes you don't forget. It's from the movie Flight and it's after the airplane has gone out of control. The pilot, played by Denzel Washington, is struggling to do everything he can to keep the plane in the air. Finally, he realizes he's got to do something desperate. Something unconventional. Perhaps even unthinkable. He's got to turn the airplane upside down and fly it that way. It's the only way he can regain control of an out of control situation. If you've seen the movie, you know that the flight ends in a field after clipping a (8 comments)

mcgraw realtors: This is Owasso, Oklahoma
- 08/08/15 06:41 AM
Owasso (pronounced OH WAH SO), Oklahoma is a suburb located 8 miles north of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Owasso is an Indian word that means "End of the Trail" or turnaround because the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway Company ran a railroad line that ended in a Y shaped turnaround near the train depot.
The first train ran on the line in 1899, and since then, Owasso has grown to a community of just over 30,000. When we moved to Owasso, Oklahoma in 1997, there was a tiny WalMart, one grocery store and less than 10 stoplights. Today, Owasso has a Walmart Supercenter, Lowe’s, Home Depot, (7 comments)

When I "hung" my license with a company, I chose McGraw realtors because I knew there simply isn't a better company in Northeastern Oklahoma.

We have more offices than any other company in the greater Tulsa area, more agents and we list and sell more real estate annually per dollar than any other company period. You don't list and sell more real estate than others if you (0 comments)
