My time is important to!

My time is important to!  
One of my biggest pet peeves in Real Estate is how some people have a complete lack of respect for other people’s time. If you come in or call and ask for information on a property and I send/ give it to a client. Yay, they want to go look at it with their (insert other party here) who can only go look on a Thursday. Great let me set up that showing and we will go look. Wednesday comes I call client and confirm appointment for showing, we are still a go! Thursday morning, send a quick text confirming time and meeting place, yup we are good. Appointment time rolls around and no client in sight.

First thought, traffic, call and check to make sure client is OK. No response. Wait for another hour still no client, another hour no call nothing. That evening about 7 I get a text sorry didn’t want to go see it that bad or better yet no communication at all. At least on the bright side I had the time to get files in order, respond to some other emails, and enjoy a nice lunch with my father at 4 pm.



I understand that people are busy and sometimes things come up. My time is precious to me. I appreciate the fact you informed me later that night that you decided not to view the property, but a little earlier would have been nice to. I was raised that if I was going to be 5 minutes late you call and inform the other party. Respecting other people’s time is important or I think it is. Being stood up for a showing is becoming a common place it seems and it really irks me. I do not have a set schedule for most of the days of the week, however I do like to go to church and spend time with my family!

Prepping your house for sale

  Prepping your home is one of the best things you can do to get the most money and a quicker sale. I mean that is your goal, right? Here are some tips to help you prep your house or property to get ready for listing it with a Realtor ® in the CC-V district. First look at your home through the eyes of potential buyers. I am not talking about the personal effects in your home (yet). I mean what are some projects you have on the honey do list that keep getting put off? Maybe you need to chalk your windows? Or perhaps fix up that back room to a spare room. The little projects you have been putting off might not seem like they would make a world of difference but to a buyer, they do. That is one less thing they must worry about when looking for a home. The house or property with the least amount of work that needs to be done is the winner 9 times out of 10. Unless it is an investor or a house flipper. Second, declutter is a must. Now while you are packing to move yourself you will ...

Making the Most of a Modest Space

While some people who are selling their home think a small kitchen is a negative, there are several ways that you can make it stand out and appeal to potential buyers: Light it up. Darkness can often make smaller rooms feel even more cramped. To open the room up to more light, consider removing all curtains from windows and instead install recessed blinds. You still get the privacy factor, while also allowing your kitchen to have a brighter feel. Keep the counters tidy. Many people have things strewn about their kitchen counters and cabinets. Think about keeping your counter tops clear of all items, including photos, papers and even appliances, to make it seem like the room is larger than it truly is. Brighten the walls. Sellers should consider making the tone of the wall color in the kitchen brighter. Lighter colors tend to open up a room. They are also much more inviting, enticing potential buyers. Mounted appliances. Sellers may want to consider mounti...
