agents: Cary, NC Real Estate Adventures: My Buyers can't afford your "Free Bonus!" - 06/15/08 04:41 AM
Can something be "free," and not be "affordable?" Sure. But, I guess in real estate some folks feel they have to "sell what they have." Lately I have bumped into a couple of Cary homes with unpermitted, sub-code finished living areas. When it is mentioned, the Listing Agents' responses have been, "Since it isn't … (4 comments)

agents: That feller offered me the US Post Office, for only $350/month. He DID! - 06/13/08 07:53 AM
Sometimes I could kick myself. How did I let this one get away? I could have had some choice real estate, the main branch of the Cary, NC, US Post Office, all to myself. I could have been the Realtor of choice. The MAN!
"For only $350/month, you can have the entire 27512 Zip … (13 comments)

agents: Cary and Raleigh, NC Real Estate: Buyers' Agents...Lock it up! Turn out the lights! - 10/17/07 07:07 AM
Sometimes you focus on your Buyer, but sometimes you owe a little attention to the Seller, too. Seems to me that is the case when doing the little things like locking up and turning out the lights after showing a home. Keith and Robin Perry's post indicates how common the problem is of … (11 comments)

agents: Cary, NC Realtor Compromises Principles! 102 degrees IS HOT! - 08/07/07 08:21 AM
Okay.
I surrender. Unconditionally.
I capitulate to the heat Gods, or the flames of Beezel-Bubba, or whatever is going on in Wake County,NC.
When I said "95 Degrees is NOT HOT" it was absolutely NOT MEANT as a challenge!
It's so dang hot, Barry Saunders says in the Raleigh New and Observer today that the early bird needs … (24 comments)

agents: North Carolina Real Estate, HEY, Y'ALL!! We're getting new paperwork!! - 07/17/07 09:26 PM
In our team meeting today, we spent about an hour going over the 2007 edition of North Carolina Standard Form 2-T, Offer to Purchase and Contract.
You know, if we would all just be good, we would likely have a LOT less paperwork to contend with.
They have carried a lot of … (9 comments)

agents: North Carolina Real Estate, Are you ready for some new rules? - 07/17/07 09:06 PM
The NC Real Estate Commission is considering some rule changes. Are you ready?
I like the proscription against shopping offers. Some people are so ham-handed and clumsy about it that it taints the flavor of the negotiations. And too often it feels like it is being done unevenly, so as to favor another … (2 comments)

agents: If Real Estate was NASCAR, which driver would YOU be? - 05/22/07 08:36 PM
Imagine if real estate overnight became NASCAR and all agents assumed the identity of various NASCAR Drivers.
I identify more with drivers from the past, like the King, Richard Petty, who managed to bump the back of a car on I-85 when the pace of traffic didn't suit him. And he was in … (3 comments)

agents: Listing Identity Crisis: Mobile, Manufactured, or Modular? - 03/30/07 06:07 AM
The proper identity of sectional factory-built homes routinely stumps North Carolina Listing Agents who often mistakenly label these homes.
Factory-built homes may be "modular" or "manufactured." The existence of a steel I-beam frame and wheels is not a distinguishing factor. The method of installation, via crane or roller system, is not an … (4 comments)

agents: Do you have language skills... Or language resources? - 02/15/07 10:59 PM
I was talking to my friend Ahmed Ammar today about building business, and addressing niches today.
We got into languages and I asked him, "What languages do you speak other than English?"
He said, "Arabaic."
Me, "Well, you should be blogging an English/Arabic blog. And an English/Arabic newsletter. There are many people in … (12 comments)
