In 2017, I visited, listed and sold many stunning properties.  People welcomed me, into their homes, in hopes of a successful sale of their property.  Some retired, others moved to other states due to their job relocation and others moved up or downsized. Buyers came from near and far. . . .Near: Bristol, East Hartford, Manchester, Vernon,  Southington, East Haven, Bolton & MiddletownFar: Maryland, Arizona,  NYC,  Florida, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts & Maine.Our market in the Greater Hartford Area of Connecticut, held its own this year.  We didn't have the drop in prices, experienced in the past years.  Though, our state and local taxes continue to hinder improvement, our market stayed steady.  Jobs are coming back. There is a new optimism that we haven't felt or seen in a very long tim...

"What we ponder and what we think about sets the course of our life. Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it all. Any day we wish, we can open the book that will open our mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish, we can start a new activity. Any day we wish, we can start the process of life change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next month, or next year. "We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform. And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is not ...

  Who Do You Know?       The grand daddy of all referral questions is JUST as relevant today.  I was reminded of this when I read an article recently.  Here are some quick facts and ideas taken from that article that may remind you of the simple things that often get overlooked.        66% of all business generated by 95% of the successful agents come from 4 sources: friends, family, acquaintances, or a co-worker.  That is 2/3rds of all business.  How much money and time do you spend mining THOSE targets?  Probably less time then you spend on your internet presence yet almost all your business likely does NOT come from the internet!        According to the Direct Marketing Assoc. (DMA), it is 16 times MORE profitable to market your existing sphere of influence then it is to find new bus...

The  Town of Vernon has been awarded $200,000 in Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) funding as part of Governor Malloy’s $3.8 million dollar campaign to revitalize abandoned and blighted brownfield sites throughout the state. According to a press release in April 17, 2014 by the Town of Vernon, Vernon’s application was one of only twenty-one (21) approved by the Office of Brownfield Remediation and Development, and was awarded for the assessment of 15.2 acres among five former mill sites in Rockville for multiple potential redevelopments. This is excellent news for the town as blighted areas are true eyesores and have pulled the home values down. Revitalization of abandoned and brownfield sites would also improve the town's neighborhood and its quality. There are 12...
