Great news!  Another "Pending Sale."  216 Oak Hollow will close next week and another homeowner is born and re-born, so to speak.  This was a great home, and I am so privileged to work with my clients. You know, it gets personal, I definitely have a new friend in this seller.  She is great.  This is our second transaction together.  Repeat business is the biggest compliment I could ever receive.  I stopped by the other day to "check in" and her new house looks great.  It is what she wanted and the location that she wanted--all she needed was to sell her other house.  I listed it well after she bought the new place--kind of the "other way around," but it worked out great for her.  I love selling Real Estate.  I love meeting new people and building relationships to develop "clients for li...

Dear readers, Those around me know how much I enjoy using technology as a tool. They also know that I'm a realist, so if technology doesn't make your job easier or life better, it's out the window. I'm pleased to be headed for the Keller Williams Market Center in Conroe / Lake Conroe, Texas this morning to teach New Technology for Realtors - facebook & Active Rain - Basic Course to Houston area Realtors. As many of you know, facebook went through another major change this week. In an attempt to end the confusion between profiles, pages and groups they have, at least temporarily, added to the confusion. We're going to sort that out this morning. We are also going to spend some time talking about Active Rain, blogging and Search Engine Optimization (SEO). If you are looking for basic to ...

Have you asked your lawn person, maid, pool cleaner and any other household helpers you may use or employ what they think your listing or your house is worth? I will guess you probably have not. I haven't either. Should you? No probably not, again. However it may be a good idea to at least talk with them about why you think your home or listing is worth what you are asking. Why pray-tell should I do that you ask. Let me tell you about yesterday. I am out with my in-a-hurry buyers. We have looked at five homes and are on our way to the sixth of eight we are going to look at. Today is a must buy day. As we pull in to the long driveway of this 4 acre property the lawn guy with the weedeater in his possession holds up his hand to stop us. I stop the car and roll down the window. He asks if ...

What is the difference between a Realtor and a Real Estate Agent? Hmmm...glad you asked. Let's start with what Realtors and Real Estate Agents have in common.  Both are licensed to sell Real Estate.  What is the difference. This is HUGE: Realtors are bound by a code of ethics, whereas Real Estate Agents are not.  Why is this important to the consumer?  You can find out all the details by reading the code of ethics available at www.Realtor.org , but here's the gist: Realtors are held accountable by the NAR-National Association of Realtors Code of Ethics.  The National Association of Realtors came into existence for the purpose of protecting the consumer.  This organization brought accountability to the "wild, wild west" of real estate transactions that was the climate prior to 1908 and t...

I live on Lake Conroe and as you might expect I spend part of my time on the lake. Like most of us who use the lake I admit that I do not often, nor if I were to admit it, have I ever thought about the rules and regulations that govern the use of the wonderful lake. I just go hit the lake and do not really worry about the rules for its' use. My bad. I know that the fishing is good on the lake. Although I will admit that I am not much of a fisherman. My grandson will quickly agree with that last statement. I know that it is a reservoir for the City of Houston in the event of drought. I know that it has a long dam. I know it has some great bars on its' shores. I know that some of my friends go way to fast in their boats on the lake. And I know a lot of other "who could care less" facts ab...

The residential rental market in my part of the world right now is pretty hot. It seems like I am getting five rental calls for every buy or sell call. I get these calls because I have a few rental listings. This past week has been a little frustrating with some potential rental clients. So I thought what I would do is try and explain some of the "things" my landlords will understand and some of the "things" they will not understand. There is a pretty good chance my landlords will understand your lower credit scores. At one time or another we have all been in that boat. They understand that you would for the most part prefer to buy however for some reason can't or don't want to at this time. Please be upfront about what your credit situation was and is currently. Honesty here is the bes...
