  Lesson of the day  Yesterday my husband and I went to World Wellness EcoFest 2012 in Warm Mineral Springs at North Port FL. The lesson began after we met a senior man who wore a red hat embroidered with a “W” on it in the spring.  We could only see his head above the water.   My husband Andy asked him “which part of Wisconsin are you from”?  The man said “I am from Sarasota and, pointing to the white “W” on his red hat, said my name is Walter”   The lesson is: do not presume what you see or hear, find it out to avoid an unnecessary mistake. Especially when helping buyers or sellers in a real estate transaction; it may cost you.   Related posts:   Holy Humor Sunday Humor of the day Warm Mineral Springs – World Wellness EcoFest 2012 in Florida Underwater Archaeological Site in Sarasota ...

  Humor of the Day   This morning about 8:30am a woman called on one of my listings. I wished her good morning and asked her for her name. I understood her to say “the buyer” that’s what I heard; I asked her again “what is your name please? So that I may call you appropriately” Again I heard her to say “the buyer”;I am thinking “OK if you are reluctant to give me your name, I have doubt in my mind” so I asked her the 3rd time “would you mind to spell your name for me please” She spelled it out “Dee Beyer” I apologized and explained to her what I thought and told her the information of the property from the sign call. She is here with her husband for a vacation, liked the house they saw and were not interested in other houses. The house has a contract and a back-up contract. From the exp...

  Back in June, while I was showing property in North Port, Florida I found this colorful grass hopper. Common name is Eastern Lubber Grasshopper and the scientific name is Romalea Microptera. It looks pretty but it will cause damage to your landscape ornamentals.           Kweeh Speechless Sunday 10/16/2011 – Water Bills Bugging You?     Buying or selling your home in North Port and the surrounding area, contact  North Port REALTOR®.  Kwee can assist you every step of the way, while keeping your best interests at heart.
