There is a great song by Lynyrd Skynyrd called, “Simple Man”. If you haven’t listened to it in a while or never heard it, it is worth a listen. I am finding that being a simple woman is anything but simple in America. With wealth comes options and with options comes the potential for pride, lust, guilt, greed and many other evils. Want an eye opener? Look at your actions, really look at them and ask the question, “Why”. Why did you do that thing? It is a crucial question. Did you buy that new house because the old one longer worked or was there some other reason that may not have been so noble-like you wanted to impress someone?WE MUST LOOK AT ACTIONS, NOT WORDS. AND ASK WHY? Why are we sending weapons to Ukraine when the risk of war is growing? Shouldn’t we be conserving our weapons? W... 09/08/2023

UPDATEThe buyer currently lives in Quail Springs Ranch and saw my sign on the property many months ago.  We have been in contact for quite some time.  I have answered many of his questions, including this lot's history from one owner to the next.  The buyer had been doing his own due diligence.  With all the improvements to the lot, he realized much of the cost and risk had been minimized. He has been looking to build his own home, and now he can.  He asked me to represent him in the sale.  I told him that I would have to get permission from my seller.  We negotiated the sale price to the satisfaction of both parties.  Every time I have represented both parties, the sale has gone much smoother than if I were negotiating with another agent.  It is all about trust and communication.
