the moore team: Why I Moved to Keller Williams
- 06/14/07 04:32 AM
Our move to Keller Williams represents the single most significant positive change we have made to our real estate business. Before joining Keller Williams, we were among the very top agents in our office at the largest Prudential affiliate in Arizona. We built our business and our team through hard work, persistence and a true passion for people and the real estate business. Those factors enabled us to grow into the top 3% of Prudential agents nationwide. So why change companies when things were going, by most measures, pretty well? The answer, in retrospect, is fairly simple. Success requires constant growth … (1 comments)

- 06/11/07 04:10 AM
Growing a flower garden is good for you in all sorts of ways. It gets you outdoors and keeps you moving. It relieves stress. It uses muscles you never knew you had! It can be a time for solitary meditation or an all-inclusive family activity. If you're looking ahead to a move, then a flower garden can also add curb appeal that translates into higher resale value.

In the last few years, tragedies like Hurricane Katrina and the fires in Southern California have been a cruel reminder that natural or other disasters can strike suddenly, at any time, anywhere, and sometimes, without warning. Experiencing a loss of your personal property as a result of a fire or natural disaster can be devastating. Most of us have a collection of household items that we have compiled over many years - in times of loss, trying to remember those items so that they can be replaced can be extremely difficult.

- 06/04/07 08:20 AM

- 06/04/07 05:59 AM
"The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention... A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words." - Rachel Naomi Remen, Kitchen Table Wisdom The truth is that no matter how much attention we pay to the world around us, we can all use a lesson in effective communication. This industry is all about communication: effective listening and avoiding communication roadblocks.

the moore team: Remodeling vs Moving
- 06/04/07 05:47 AM
If you can't decide whether to remodel or move, your answer might be - both, in that order! Remodeling can give you the added or different space you need now, but you should also carefully consider the resale value of any project you undertake. Some remodels allow for a bigger payoff than your original investment, while others might be needed just to keep the resale price on par with the neighborhood. Whatever remodeling project you take on, may it have a happy and high-value ending!

- 06/04/07 05:34 AM
Would you go to a job interview with the remains of breakfast on your suit? Wearing mismatched shoes? With messy, uncombed hair? Of course not! When you're preparing to put your house on the market, think of it in similar terms: Before you'll get the "interview," you need to give your home its best outerview! These days, curb appeal is the key to getting past the first view from a potential buyer, either on the Internet, or their first drive-by sighting. Even if you have no immediate intentions of putting your home on the market, improving your outdoor living space can increase … (2 comments)
