I have a lead generating service.   Yesterday I got a call from an older lady.  She was excited.  She had just sold her home and was calling on a mobile home on a rented lot.  That particular one was pending.  She did not know about lot rent.  I found out she did not have the money for a mortgage...

Of the ALL the homes priced up to $250,000 NONE of them sold for CASH!  As a matter of fact, the average seller even paid $5,000 toward the buyer's costs.That is the problem with just reading the headlines and not looking deeper at the data.  How many homes created this statistic . . . only 1.Tha...

Retired Real Estate veteran Barbara Todaro had a great post last month Get Your Feet Off The Desk And Do Your Job Or Someone Else Will!!  Her post had to do with CMA requests.As new agents I think we get the idea that if I do task A then I will be paid this amount.  Real Estate is not that lineal...

Things have been busy with the opening of the new Sandpoint Realty office.  We had 11 listings and ten of them sold and closed in the first month.  Like most of the nation we have an extremely low inventory right now with only 60 active residential listings in the entire Bonner county.  Only 27 o...

 My last two transactions had potential hiccups that could have delayed closing or even killed the deal!  Because I took care of these problems early the deals closed smoothly and efficientlyDeal #1 - Ex-husband refused to sign the quit claim deed at the divorce.  I knew my client for at least 20...

My partner and I prepped this home we had under management.  It is a cute 1536 sq ft 3 bedroom, 2 bath in Nampa, Idaho.  In late August I did a CMA and felt we would be lucky to get $275K.   The tenant moved out in early October.   It was time for Bill Taylor and me to go to work.   We first work...

Now I am a slightly skinnier 59 year old diabetic lady.  (I lost 15 pounds).   I went back to work and went to the hospital with Covid but I am better now.  It was very scary.   I...
