    Maybe for free…  Maybe for $999.
    The simple fact is that not all sellers NEED a real estate agent.  I have some folks I working with right now that have moved 38 times in 30 years.  They have bought and sold 38 different homes in 30 years.  In real estate terms, they have transacted 76 sides.   [...]

    Picture this…
    You work in town… maybe even Midtown.  You enjoy the cool and eclectic variety of restaurants in that area.
    Gas is $4/gallon, and you are tired of spending 30-45 minutes each morning and evening driving out to your house in “the ‘burbs.”

    There is a comedian… and I can’t for the life of me find her name… if you know it, PLEASE tell me, because I want the clip…

    Those of you that have been reading me for a while know that i love to tell a story.  Often, the story has a hidden meaning.  Honestly, I got this from my Dad.  He loved a good story.  And there was always a point.
    Recently I have been asked about my reasons for changing to Diamond [...]

    There is a new wave in property marketing.  Luckily, I am riding the front of it.
    For quite a while now, agents have been putting properties for sale on their own websites.  In fact, single property web sites and house address URLs have been used now for a couple of years.  But, the downfall of most [...]

    A lot of (would-be)sellers are asking that question right now.  Should they sell their homes to buy another that better suits their needs… or hang tight and make changes to their current home.
    I understand. I really understand.  As the father of a four year old and a 4 month old… I understand.  As the husband [...]
