Welcome December! The Holiday season is certainly in full swing with no time to stop, as we just celebrated Thanksgiving 3 days ago.   As we close out 2024, real estate remains active.  Buyers and sellers are poised to make their move, optimistic that the economy will improve, interest rates will settle in somewhere between 5% - 6%, and home prices will increase at the normal 2% - 3% annual rate as it has been over the past 40 years.  Inquiries on my listings continue with potential buyers even asking if I have any homes for sale not in the MLS (pocket listings).  My current inventory is primarily vacant land listings as well as a fantastic lease opportunity - reach out to me for details on any of these! If you are considering selling, be it a condominium or single-family residence, or ... 12/01/2024

Speechless Sundays: Who was the head chef in your home on Thanksgiving? Well in all fairness, in our home it was Holly. The photos are a bit old, but you get the idea. Five years ago, feels like yesterday to me.Thanksgiving has too many chefs if you asked me. Needless to say, one has to be the head chef.Here in our household, it is a toss-up me or Holly:) Jill our cat did not really want to be involved in the cooking. She preferred getting the finished product i.e.: the dinner.  Wishing you a safe and healthy life and I look forward to your comments.

As most of you know I am a huge fan of positive motivations, hence I love Monday and this platform allows me to post about motivations, not just on Mondays, but any time.How do you handle Criticism and Praise? like John Wooden I take criticism from outsiders with a grain of salt."...You're also going to receive praise on occasions. Some of it will be deserved and some of it will be undeserved. Either way, deserved or undeserved, you're going to love to like it...""...however, your strength as an individual depends on how you respond to both criticism and praise. If you let either one have any special effect on you, it's going to hurt us. Whether it's criticism or praise, deserve or undeserved makes no difference. If we let it affect us, it hurts us".May I ask you to read the above quote... 12/02/2024
