Working seems 24/7 during Spring and I have so much yard care to do before summer, so had an idea. What if I conduct an Open House at my home on Sundays to attract some traffic and when clients drop by I lock the front door and don't let them escape without at least an hour or two of work in my ...

....and apparently the listing agent hadn't either and HE put it in a counter offer today. The bargain was to cut short a so-called transferrable Home Warrnty and let my clients take over the last 5 months. Now I've never heard of anything less than one year before and this was never an issue i...

Another morning and more rain. I realize it's Spring, but here I sit at my computer watching all the geese and ducks enjoying the lake and looking for places to make their nests. I could be out there selling them a nice small condo if they'd only listen to me. I could convince them rates are s...
