“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has.” — Margaret MeadMargaret Mead’s powerful quote reminds us that true, lasting change doesn’t come from the sidelines or from vast crowds, it begins with a small group of thoughtful, committed individuals. These are the people who dare to believe that their efforts, no matter how small they seem at first, can ignite a spark powerful enough to light up the world.History is filled with examples: movements for freedom, innovation, human rights, and social progress were all launched by people who refused to accept the status quo. Their courage, resilience, and unwavering belief that a better way was possible gave rise to changes that touched millions.We don’t h... 04/28/2025

Great advice from the Doctor. Bill I know this post is going to rub some people the wrong way. We have all been conditioned for our entire lives that the sun is our enemy. Stay out of the sun! The sun will give you skin cancer. And, because of these narratives, we have been told to slap on sunscreen anytime we are going to be outside. I have been doing some deep research into this whole topic and have found a lot of information that is incorrect, misleading, and downright troubling. Now, don't shoot the messenger here and just move along if you are a sunscreen-loving person. This post is probably not for you. The sun is NOT our enemy. The problem is many will flock outside on the first sunny day of Spring or Summer and try to take it all in with one, extended sitting. If you have not be... 04/26/2025

This month's ActiveRain Challenge is about April Blooms.We are to talk about our April Blooms - be it in business, family, or life story - we are to share what bloomed and how it affected you. When I first started my career in Baltimore real estate in 1998, I was young and looked even younger.While trying to build my business, I worked part time as an assistant to the manager in our real estate office and worked with high producing agents on the side creating flyers, taking photos, and the like. I learned so much from both side jobs - how to draft a good offer, how to do paperwork correctly, and how to set myself apart from other agents with my graphic designs and offerings.I worked floor duty whenever possible, and stepped in when someone had to cancel.My bloom happened with a couple w... 04/26/2025

Real estate can often feel like the weather—unpredictable, ever-changing, and influenced by various external factors. Just as a sunny day can quickly turn into a thunderstorm, the real estate market can shift rapidly based on economic conditions, interest rates, and consumer sentiment.As I sat at my desk today, the sky was sunny blue and a very comfortable 70 degrees. In a split second, there was thunder, and within minutes, a driving rain with heavy gusts followed. It looked like pink snow; so many flowering trees were losing their petals. The weather can change anytime, just like the real estate market. It's not good or bad weather. It's just weather! It is how it is perceived.In many markets, spring is synonymous with a surge in activity, akin to the blooming of flowers. Buyers come ... 04/26/2025
