When I move away from Tucson, the one thing I will miss the most is Mt.

It is very common sellers - when listening to their real estate professional place a value on their home - to reply with, "But my neighbors house sold for...!"  Sellers these days do know alot about what is for sale, what their neighborhood homes look like, etc., and what they don't know - they c...

The April Active Rain contest, What I Wish I Knew, sure does bring on lots of reflection of the early years in real estate. Real estate for me goes way back to 1986.  I got my license back then to take a job, as a secretary at a local real estate company.  It was simply a job during the day while...

A while back when the entry fee was cheap, thinking I had time and ambition to train - I crazily signed up for the Annual Mt. Lemmon Marathon/Half Marathon event – it’s a complete uphill climbing run.  But Mt Lemmon is one of my favorite riding and running spots – it’s mostly quiet – terrific vie...
