Trunk Tales

Remember the show "Let's Make a Deal?"  Monty Hall was the emcee and he would roam through the audience asking ladies for strange or abstract things they might find in their purse.  The gals would wildly rummage through their purse and pull out the requested item, for this public humiliation they would get the chance to bet on something and maybe get lucky and take home a car.

Well I've never met Monty Hall nor have I been lucky enough to play on a game show. But I do know one thing for sure when people come to me to buy or sell Denver real estate, I am ready.  If they want me to list their home, I have a real estate sign.  Oh sign rider?  Sure, I've got one for their sign.

Buying a home in the mountains you say?  What?  It is snowed it?  No problem, this gal can get there, let me just slip on these snow shoes.  Off I go!

I'm prepared to be lost, so I have multiple maps of the Denver and the Front Range.  There is a towel in case the baby has an accident and needs a bath.  Yes, we have baby wipes for the baby or our hands after looking at one to many "fixer uppers."  

Tools include a wrench, hammer, screws, double sided tape, no not for the kids who constantly yap, but to hang the real estate sign you see!  A flashlight for those extended days that turn into darkness.  Oh yes, a mono pod to steady my wobblily photo hand.

The hiking boots are for doing dirt, which is what all real estate is or was at one time. Of course the rag is for wiping the dirt. The cookie sheet is not for baking treats in the car, but for dropping off if I ever get close by my son's house, for it belongs to him!

What do you haul around in your trunk?  Is your collection as abstract and strange as mine? 

As Realtor's we tend to be problem solvers. We are armed and prepared for the challenges we face in our everyday jobs.  We work hard to anticipate the inevitable so consumers don't have to stress.  

Monty Hall, where are you?
