Blacksburg, VA

Remember that whole Taylor, Bean & Whitaker mess? It’s been on my mind since it happened, I think in part because I have friends whose mortgage is with TBW. And one of the questions they asked was “where do I pay my mortgage?“ Word to the wise … keep paying. They’ll tell you where to send your next payment.

But what hypocrisy, because as homeowners are making their payments to Taylor, Bean & Whitaker, it’s highly probable that the company is not making the necessary payments to the municipalities and insurance companies on behalf of those same borrowers. I dug around a bit today and am starting to hear that that in fact is the case – more and more companies are probably going to begin reporting that escrow payments from TBW are not being made.

Several months ago, I started hiring Sean Shannon Photography to take high-quality photos of the real estate properties. I was finding that while my camera certainly takes good photos, it couldn't show the house off quite as well as a professional could. I talked with Sean about my problem, and he immediately showed me what I was missing.

Now, my properties stand out. They pop. And they turn heads. I use Sean's photos everywhere I run an ad, and everyone comments on how they look.
