Home not selling?

When interviewing real estate agents to re-list a home, there are several criteria sellers should take into consideration. An agent should always have the support of a company with a value and belief system in place. The agent you choose should also commit to integrity and have your personal interests in mind.

As your local economist and real estate agent, I am committed to getting your home sold by being creative, always communicating with you, and most importantly having the integrity and trust you can rely on in a dependable real estate agent.

I want to create a personalized plan for your needs that will get your home sold so that you can move into the next one. Why not work with an agent that has a value system you believe in as well as continual success? Let’s get together and discuss your options.

Give me a call so that we can schedule a time to talk.

I would like to walk you through the home buying process at a pace that is right for you. My goal is to find the best home for you and successfully negotiate the best price for you. I will help take the stress out of the buying process and insure costly mistakes are avoided.

If you know someone whom you used to value, but whose differences you have been unable to see past, consider inviting them to lunch. Agree that neither of you will attempt to persuade the other; instead, maintain a sense of curiosity and strive to simply have a conversation. Even if you both hold steady to your beliefs, you should be able to establish the mutual sense of respect that is essential to rekindling your relationship.
  • Schedule time to be bored each week. From smartphones to streaming television, many people never feel bored in today’s hyperconnected world. But did you know that occasional boredom can benefit your brain? When your brain has “off time” as it does when you are bored, it becomes better equipped to solve nagging problems, connect disparate ideas, and gain a sense of clarity about your personal journey and goals. While you may find it difficult to relax, resolve that you will schedule some electronics-free time each week to simply do nothing.
