thomas j nelson realtor bay park: Don't Panic, But Chicken Little is Back at It!
- 02/02/24 09:30 AM
Don't Panic, But Chicken Little is Back at It! In a recent spectacle of sensationalism, the Union Tribune seems to have taken a few notes from Chicken Little's playbook, spinning out-of-context market figures faster than a cat on a hot tin roof.

thomas j nelson realtor bay park: Choosing a REALTOR®: Practice Partner or Goal Achiever?
- 01/14/24 09:31 AM
Are You Choosing Practice Partner or Goal Achiever? In the world of real estate, finding the right REALTOR® can make all the difference in turning your property dreams into a reality. But here's the catch: not all REALTORS® are created equal. Some may see you as just another client to practice their skills on, while others are committed to helping you achieve your goals successfully. Many are very transactional, just trying to earn a check, while the more experienced agents lean towards relational, putting your needs ahead of a check. So, the question arises: do you want a practice partner or a

thomas j nelson realtor bay park: The Clock ⌚ and The Compass 🧭
- 01/01/24 07:37 AM
The Clock and The Compass
In the journey of life, we are often faced with a choice: do we follow the ticking of the clock or the guiding direction of the compass? Many of us, knowingly or unknowingly, choose the former, allowing the relentless march of time to dictate our actions and decisions. We become slaves to the daily grind, measuring our worth by the number of tasks we accomplish and the hours we put in at work. In the realm of real estate, this tendency is especially pronounced. Agents and brokers, driven by the pressure to succeed and the allure of financial
