This morning, Sunday was a crazy time. It is the last day of school vacation and my sons wanted to make the most of it. So they slept in and didn't get up until 11:00am. At this point it didn't want to cook breakfast, then turn around and make lunch.. so I took them out to Mitchell's here in Cromwell, CT, the breakfast's there are phenomenal.
Any way, it is pouring rain, and instead of getting working on getting my hair presentable, I just graped and put on my *Realtor* hat (baseball cap).. and ran out the door.
Would you know when I was waiting for a table, Sister Susan (yes, a nun) asked me if I sold real estate, after seeing my hat. They agreed with the media and jumped on the bandwagon by saying that the real estate must be bad. When I told them that it IS picking up in this area, and that what the media broadcasts is general and you need to talk with a Realtor in your area to get the most up-to-date, acturate information, they thought this made sense. Next they said that there house wasn't worth more than 170k.. because this is what their attorney told them. When I asked if he had a Realtor license, they said no. Then how can he know for sure this is accurate, I inquired. I got them thinking, and they wanted my card to call me.
All of this happened because I put on my real estate cap on a rainy day. So, when you least expect it... something good might just happen.
