It is time for door hanging for me in 4 subdivision and people look for my door hangers.  I put in a plastic door hanger bag a notepad, pens, market report for their area. I also team up with a mortgage company for a flyer, a restaurant that has a couple in it, a handyman flyer.  My new company that will be in it is LEGACY WINDOW CLEANING.  I had my windows done by them last week and what a great job inside and out.  They can do machine clean screens, tracks, mirrors and showers even interior light fixtures.  There price was great and I can see the benefit of anyone ready to sell there home.  Others services they have is gutter cleaning (Which my wife said we will have them do, since she sold my big ladder.)  Christmas lighting and more.Warm weather and a chance to talk to people and ge... 03/22/2023

When I am at my desk, I always have Google Analytics open, as I like to know what the public is looking at.   I often go back to those pages and update with more information, so Google sees activity added. Over the last couple of days, I have seen MANY hits on a condo development downtown.   I first thought it was one of my clients, as they still own one in that building, and they do visit my site to see what is being listed and sold. NOPE, today, I saw someone on that page twice, and there is only one condo for sale right now, so wondering what they were looking at.   Then I got an email from Zillow Home Loans asking for contact or website information for the building, as they are working on a loan. OH MY, why don't they call the buyer's agent, or maybe the Seller's agent?    I wrote b... 03/22/2023

Balancing Your Wants and Needs as a Homebuyer This Spring Though there are more homes for sale now than there were at this time last year, there's still an undersupply with fewer houses available than in more normal, pre-pandemic years. The Monthly Housing Market Trends Report from realtor.com puts it this way: While the number of homes for sale is increasing, it is still 43.2% lower than it was before the pandemic in 2017 to 2019. This means that there are still fewer homes available to buy on a typical day than there were a few years ago.The current housing shortage has an impact on how you search for a home this spring. With limited options on the market, buyers who consider what's a necessity versus what's a nice-to-have will be more successful in their home search.The first step? G... 03/22/2023

Source: Statista The future of travel will be defined by the next generation and inextricably influenced by their digital environment. From how Gen Z purchases goods and services online to preferred communication methods, if the current trends are any indication, e-commerce will continue to replace physical retail and personalized shopping experiences will become the norm. In fact, a study shows that 61% of Gen Zs expect that all shopping will take place online in the next 10 years and already 45% are likely to leave a website if it doesn’t predict what they like, want, or need. These preferences will have significant implications, not only for how travel retail websites and apps are structured online, but also for the kind of data that businesses will need to collect on users in order ... 03/22/2023

I have been a Realtor longer than my daughter has been alive so I sort of assumed she had absorbed a certain level of knowledge in utero.  Boy... I was wrong. She is in the process of trying to buy a condo in Boston.  In her search to find that dream condo, she is working with a duo of young women whom she chose.   We had a conversation yestereday about how she prefers to see properties some times just with her fiance and not with her buyer agent.  This sounded very reasonable to me.  Frequently my clients will go to open houses without me.  I even joke that they should go to check out neighborhoods and a few open houses without me because it is fun to explore new areas and they don't need me breathing down their necks  while they explore. Then she said in all innocence that she has got... 03/22/2023

Sometimes you just can't stop yawning. I don't remember the last time I had a "yawn feast" but there have been times.I do remember when I yawned and dosed off the most... school! I never have been much for institutional education. That includes Real Estate continuing education. If CE wasn't mandatory to renew one's license I would have no part of it... BORING!That being said, there is a huge difference between institutional education and "real life" education. That is why I am here at Active Rain. Never a dull moment and so much good stuff to learn. Thank you all for the education 😊. 03/22/2023
