From Localism Posts To A Book...Sound Like A Good Idea?
I wrote a post in 2010 about my adventures in blogging here on ActiveRain. Most of my posts are about The Hamptons with local information and history being my focus....and I do review some of my posts from time to time. 
I thought it could be quite enlightening to read this one again since it had to do with my ultimate goal of writing a book. I just wanted to see what I was thinkng about back then.  To my total surprise and joy, I discovered that I was on my way, at that point, … (14 comments)

southampton village ny: A PURPOSEFUL LIFE--STORIES ABOUT LOCAL LIFE IN THE HAMPTONS--PART II - 05/17/18 03:23 PM
 
A PURPOSEFUL LIFE— 
I find the word, "purposeful" so new sounding yet so profound in its meaning. I love to use it, but find it is one of the more difficult words to just plop into a sentence. It rarely fits! But somehow it comes to mind more readily, now that Fred has found his purpose and as he shares it with me.
I discovered the word and its usefulness through Fred and his way of life—a gentleman farmer with pure grit and a penchant for helping others, simply because it felt good to do so. He never asked for help himself. He never seemed … (24 comments)

southampton village ny: NEVER, EVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU CAME FROM!!! - 11/14/10 01:45 PM
NEVER, EVER FORGET WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU CAME FROM!!!  I have to write this post because of something that  just  happened to me. I was talking to this young man who is coming into the real estate business and he was asking me all kinds of questions about the business and how I managed to reach "top producer" in my company.
He made me stop and think!I had not thought of this stuff for a very long time and when I stopped to REALLY think about my background, I was amazed at what I remembered. I was amazed because when I sat … (14 comments)

southampton village ny: WHY DO WE NEED TITLE INSURANCE???---DOES THAT QUESTION EVER COME UP FOR YOU??? - 10/16/10 02:35 PM
WHY DO WE NEED TITLE INSURANCE???--does that question ever come up for you ???
I had a sale here in Southampton Village recently where my buyer was insisting upon not buying title insurance. He felt that it was just another expense that he could choose NOT to buy...I was at my wits end trying to explain, as did his lawyer, why he NEEDED to have title insurance. We finally prevailed and he did get title insurance after all.
BUT, I AM STILL LEFT WITH THE FEELING THAT WE DO NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND THE FULL IMPORTANCE OF TITLE INSURANCE....
I am not a lawyer, so … (115 comments)

However, when we do have buyers coming here to Southampton Village, NY to invest money in a concrete and tangible product--$5Million houses are a big opportunity, indeed.  The key here: New Houses.
