I know its the time of year but I showed a home to a special couple on the weekend and I wanted to share my story.

Especially in this world we live in where we worry about not being able to afford THINGS that we don't really need and for paying for things that we NEVER needed but wanted.

I showed one of our listings to a couple where the wife had suffered a setback and was under daily care by a caregiver as well as tremendous attention by her husband.

They were living 1 hr away form his workplace and wanted to be more central to his work so he could be home sooner and it would be less costly.

It didn't dawn on me until later that night when I conveyed the story to my wife,the level of sacrifice this man had made for the care and attention of his wife.

It pushed my anxiety regarding the current economic conditions and world problems to the level where they should be and my emotions and thoughts rose to where they should be all the time and that is to be thankful for what we have in life,and not just at Thanksgiving ,but every day.

Think of the man sacrificing his entire day to work,care and evolve his life around his wife who he married "For Sickness and in Health"

Happy Thanksgiving

Why are we spending 90% of our budgets and utliizing 90 % of our daily,weekly,monthly efforts to capture less than 1% of our business model.Spend a day at look,evaluate your business,Where did it come from?How much did I spend on each client?How did I generate that business?

What I am doing right now?

How much is that costing me?

Hello.

You are probably like the housing market -Upside Down.

This is not genius stuff.

Look at your sphere,past clients ,current clients,current referrals.

Focus right here .Do not go any further.This is where your business came and will come from.

Not from internet leads,or missed opportunities or $100 mailings from someone they don't know to someone you don;t know.

Get on Track!

Say hello,call a friend,buy them a beer,a coffee,go for dinner

I can think of way better ways of wasting money then sending postcards to people I don't know or want to know

See ya!

Six Forks North.If youhave never driven through this area of North Raleigh,you are missing a great

opportunity for 1st Time Homebuyers and/or Investors.Anytime you can buy a .25 acre wooded lot with 1400 s/f homes priced in the $130's,which is at the bottom of the market then you automatically

have all the ingredients for a Home Run in purchasing a house.

This is a great subdivision centrally located in a Midtown area,close to Shelley Lake,located on the Trail system and has mature trees.

This would be on Buy list for properties.

I highly reccommend a quick trip by all
