Thanks and have a wonderful day!

In the past 8 years I have been enjoying a steady and sucsessful real estate career. I have had all kinds of buyers and sellers, closers and lenders.

I have worked with some really stressed out people, and I must say, those crab apples are missing out!

I enjoy the journey, not just the rewards. I get involved in a fair amount of messy details in people's lives which could be an opportunity to be crabby.

I make a conscious effort to be fun to work with. Now what does this mean?

Take it easy. Get your ego out of the way. Don't get your panties in a bundle. Shine it on. Let go and let God.

Stop trying to be the general manager of the universe. Respond instead of reacting. Never lose your sense of humor. Listen. Be affirming and empathic. Be gracious and kind. Be truthful without being rude.

Laugh out Loud. Realize the only person you have control over is yourself. Walk a mile in someones shoes.

Don't assume things. Accept the limitations of the day. Get your beauty sleep. Practice the golden rule.

Don't be stingy. Don't take things personally. Gratitude goes a long way. Attitudes are chosen, if you are fun to work with, you will use less mental and physical energy, and preserve more for yourself and your family.

Life is short. Lighten up, and have some FUN! Yes, even while working. I love what I do, and it shows. :)

*Don't worry, Be HAPPY!*

Perhaps you are considering going "For sale by owner" in Spokane Wa.

Selling a home by owner in Spokane, or anyplace else can be challenging. The latest statistics are in and the success rate is 11% of FSBO's actually sell, and a WHOPPING 85% of those are sold by Realtor's who bring the buyers.

I pride myself in having a very comprehensive marketing plan which I have in the form of a sellers pack I give potential sellers. Detailing dozens of proven marketing avenues, this professional marketing packet is available upon request to anyone thinking of selling a home in Spokane Wa.

Again, after studying the comprensive statistics recently put out by the National Association of Realtors, I feel confident that my strategy highlights the marketing that is actually working to sell homes.

There are a few things I do not do because the proof is in the pudding folks, and some forms of advertising simply do not work for sellers, and I choose to focus on the ones that produce measurable results.

In todays market, if you choose to sell for sale by owner in Spokane Wa. then I do wish you the best of luck, as long as your understand there is a 89% chance your home will not sell.

I am happy to meet with you in person and discuss my no obligation listing presentation so you know what your options are!

Because there is no place like YOUR home!

Borrowers Beware! You WILL have to pay off all Snap grants according to the terms outlined in the deed. For my last clients, that meant that if they sold within 4 years they owed the entire 10K, PLUS back interest. 5 years, the full 10K with no back taxes. and then each additional year...8,6,4,2,0. Blah! What young family will be able to afford a home big enough to stay in for 10 years? Life happens. Kids come.

I want to state that the grant IS a really helpful. However, keep in mind that it will most likely cost you. These clients of mine went from a family of 2, to a family of 4 in 540 sq ft. The home that was a good fit was now WAY too small for two crazy boys. To sell, they had to beg, borrow over $12,000 to close. I ended up giving my commission to help make up the difference, but they still had a horrible weekend trying to make ends meet. There were alot of tears.

So, in summary:

If you are a buyer who is considering using the SNAP grant, use it with the knowledge that 10 yrs is 10 yrs. Make sure the home you choose is large enough to accommodate your needs for that period of time.
