pat starnes realtor: Happy St Patrick's Day - March Greetings - 03/12/19 10:11 PM
The Spring real estate market is heating up across Central MS and we've noticed a marked increase in sales activity. To celebrate St. Patrick's Day, our marketing team created this fun postcard.
 
The card read: Sellers shouldn't rely on the "Luck of the Irish" to sell their home. Instead, they should call an experienced Realtor. My knowledge and experience will be their "Lucky Charm". Call me today if you or someone you know is looking to upgrade their space.
 
Our postcards keep us front of mind with past clients and remind friends and family to recommend us when they have the chance. It's just one of the … (13 comments)

pat starnes realtor: Observe These 10 Tips While Trick or Treating - 10/23/18 07:06 PM
Halloween is approaching and is a childs' third favorite holiday behind Christmas and Thanksgiving. While older teens and adults may enjoy costume parties, kids can't resist Trick or Treating. Follow these 10 tips to ensure a safe and fun-filled Halloween:
 
Know when Halloween will be observed in your area. Strange as it may sound, many communities designate alternate nights for Trick or Treating if the 31st falls on Sunday. Check your neighborhood Facebook page or the city's website to be sure. 
Teach your children to look all ways when crossing the street. Look left, right, then left again when crossing and continue to look while … (23 comments)

pat starnes realtor: Murphy's Law and the Real Estate Transaction - 10/09/18 01:48 PM
Murphy's Law: What CAN go wrong WILL go wrong
 
This post was inspired by a missing prescription. I went to my doctor who said she would phone in my prescription. After work I went to the pharmacy, only to be told they had no record of an order. They blamed the doctor's office, who was closed by this time, and suggested perhaps I was at the wrong pharmacy!  
 
Regardless of how much I protested, they didn't budge. The next morning, the doctor's office called to confirm my prescription WAS called in, this time with a confirmation (?), and my script was filled. 
 
So, WHY did I think this relates to real estate? If anything … (13 comments)

Are you a teacher, nurse, or EMT? Perhaps a firefighter or police officer? If so, a new loan program is available in Mississippi that offers 100% financing. That's ZERO DOWN PAYMENT!

pat starnes realtor: Real Estate Marketing for the 4th Quarter - 09/19/18 09:31 AM
Many people think Realtors only show houses. (Make that "look at pretty houses all day".) That's a small part of our job description. We wear many hats, one of which is deciding how to market ourselves, our listings, and how to make the phone ring.
 
I'm fortunate to associate with a great company in the metro Jackson area, Front Gate Realty. We collaborate on marketing ideas that agents can choose to participate in or not. The office staff personalizes cards for each agent, we order the quantity we want and add postage and address labels. That helps a busy agent a lot! I can supplement or … (18 comments)

SOLD - 77 Woodgate Drive, Brandon, MS
 
This affordable home in Crossgates stayed on the market all of THREE days before a smart Brandon home buyer scooped it up. With three bedrooms and two full baths, a sunken family room with wood beams and a cozy fireplace, a screened porch and fenced yard, it will make a wonderful home for its new owners.
Although the exterior was mostly brick, the sellers had recently replaced the trim on the home and upgraded the master bath with a jetted tub and new ceramic tile. The kitchen had a wonderful mosaic tile backsplash, a gas cooktop, … (6 comments)
