So the government just dropped $2,400 into my bank account. Money that is supposed to help those that have lost their jobs and are having trouble paying their bills. It is also designed to help put cash back into a faltering economy.Fortunately, I am in Real Estate, so it's tough for me to lose m...

We are in a time when sellers are wary of anyone coming into their home. Buyers aren't sure they want to be out and around looking at homes, either. This can really impact the ease with which Real Estate transactions get done. Because of this, the industry is turning more to virtual showing exper...

Lawyers. My brother was one till he retired. Guess he could still be one. I have played lawyers in the movies and on TV. But I never expected to become one in real life, or at least do some of a lawyers work.Let me explain (complain). Yesterday I had my seller clients come to my office to sign cl...

Approaching the last minutes before a closing scheduled for tomorrow, the buyer's agent realized that something very important for her buyers was not going to happen. She immediately called me to complain. Well, I said, this is why we have due diligence time frames here in Georgia. This is when t...

For me, closings are a time for both sides to enjoy the end of what could have been a very tedious and stressful process. The buyer gets a home they have fallen in love with and ...

With the scary COVID-19 virus seemingly lurking around every corner these days, prople are justifiably concerned about being in a place with people they do not know. One of these places would be around the closing table. There can be 2 buyers, 2 sellers, 2 agents, a lender, and office personnel t...

Just like the water flowing over this waterfall, the current crisis we are in shall pass. They always do, and we seem to come out of them stronger than ever. In 6 months (Hopefully much sooner, please!), we will look back and see that we made it through to much better times. I predict the economy...

Today I figured I would offer something that could help center us and distract us from the issues we face in the world today. My offering is this picture of a red flower I took this past weekend.I am sure that this flower does not know or care what is happening in the world around it. It is only ...
