holden beach real estate: John Wayne. American Hero. This Weeks Video Theme. Are there Any Hero's Out There? - 10/01/08 01:49 AM
What an unbelievable crappy week our country has had. With all of the bad news I have kept telling myself, what we need is a Hero. If only John Wayne could step in and save us from this mess. The "Duke" is my all time favorite and who could be better to build a theme around? I've mixed in a clip from my favorite John Wayne movie "True Grit" and the music is from Sons Of Katie Elder. Here's to a better week than last for our great country as I report on last week's single family home sales in Brunswick … (3 comments)

Are there some things that you try real hard at but just continue to suck? Do you ever think so much of yourself that you feel you can master everything you attempt?

holden beach real estate: Once Upon A Time There Was An Investor. Sad Story, Lessons Learned. - 09/17/08 03:37 AM
Lately, I have received several calls from distressed investors who are in a world of hurt. They are reaching out to anyone for any help of any kind. I listen, I sympathize and I console but for many I just don't have an answer for what they have gotten themselves into. It's very sad and some of these folks are heading into financial ruin. So many of these folks made real estate decisions during the 2004-2006 that looked like instant money back then. It's proving to be disastrous in 2008. Most all of the problems that I see deal with land … (2 comments)

holden beach real estate: Video Sales Report. Brunswick County, NC Single Family Homes 9/05/08 - 09/08/08 01:48 AM
This was a slow week for sales in Brunswick County, NC. There were probably a couple of outside factors that contributed to this. #1 was the fact that Tropical Storm Hanna was bearing down on us. The other was it was the week after Labor Day. I posted a Pre-Hanna video as we were all concerned but didn't feel it would be too bad. Luckily it wasn't. I slept through most of it but the house was rockin a few times in the middle of the night. We lost power in the early morning hours and my hurricane strength ceiling fan … (0 comments)

holden beach real estate: Riding The Storm Out. Hanna Update From Holden Beach Video. - 09/06/08 01:15 AM
We survived Hanna last night. Things were definitely rockin in the early morning hours as the wind howled. I lost power this morning as we heard what sounded like a transformer blowing up. No power meant no coffee, so I headed to the office for my java. Late yesterday evening I took some pictures and shot a little video as people were getting ready for the storm. All is well here at the coast. The most damage I saw this morning were roofing shingles missing and some siding blown away.

holden beach real estate: How Many Grammatical Errors Do You Count in this Description? - 09/04/08 03:24 AM
While looking through MLS this morning I happened upon these remarks describing a property. I have copied it directly as it appeared in MLS. I'm no English Major but I can spot a few problems. By my count I see at least 5 errors and I'm not counting the fact that every first letter is capitalized. I cannot imagine one of my clients seeing this.

holden beach real estate: Ocean Isle, NC by Blackberry - 08/27/08 09:16 AM
Ocean Isle by Blackberry Last week I went out on the boat one afternoon with my best friend and business partner, Doug Weaver. We left Holden Beach and headed down the Intracoastal Waterway for the Shallotte River to get in a little flounder fishing. I forgot and left my camera at home. All I had was my Blackberry, so I took a lot of pictures as we fished and cruised the canals of Ocean Isle.
 
The quality of pictures from cell phones now are pretty amazing. The slideshow that I put together are all photos from my Blackberry. Enjoy.

holden beach real estate: Will You Guarantee Your Response Time? - 08/20/08 04:33 AM
I was reading an article on Inman News about the "Myth of the Million Dollar Producer". The writer mentions that if an agent cannot guarantee in writing what his response time to his client is, the client should move on and select another agent. I've never given anyone a guarantee on my response time. I simply respond and it's never been an issue. I do have another life at times, but I dedicate so much of it to my clients. 
I did make the decision to go to the Blackberry and now I can almost respond immediately on e-mails. I don't … (13 comments)

I finally did it. I got a Blackberry from Alltel. They say it's a smart phone. I'm not sure how smart it is yet, but I love gadgets. I knew the day would come sooner or later and I was always hoping sooner. If you don't have a phone that will make coffee nowadays you are either falling way behind or you at least feel as if you are behind the rest of the world. My son Jake had pleaded to me a few months ago that he needed a smart phone. I questioned this need of his. He promised that … (4 comments)
