A "Slice of Life in New Hampshire"
brought to you by your Southern New Hampshire Realtor®, Rudy Mayer. http://www.RudyMayer.com The Budweiser Clydesdales are the beverage industry's most recognizable mascots, and you can meet these famous horses by visiting the Anheuser-Busch Brewery right here in Merrimack, New Hampshire. In 1933, August A. Busch, Jr. gave a hitch of Clydesdales to his father in celebration of the resumption of brewing in St. Louis following the repeal of Prohibition. Clydesdales--a powerful breed of draft horses--originated in the Clyde valley of Scotland, and they are known for the distinctive, feathery hair on their fetlocks--the lower parts of their legs above and behind the hooves. Originally, farmers living in the 19th century along the banks of the River Clyde in Lanarkshire, Scotland bred the Great Flemish Horse, the forerunner of the Clydesdale. In the mid 1800's, Canadians of Scottis descent brought the first Clydesdales to the United States, where today they are primarily used for breeding and for show. To qualify for the Budweiser hitch, a Clydesdale must be a gelding at least four years of age. He must stand 6 feet at the shoulder when fully mature, weigh between 1,800 and 2,300 pounds, be bay in color, have four white stocking feet, a blaze of white on the face, and a black mane and tail. Each harness and collar weighs approximately 130 pounds, and is handcrafted from brass and leather. Pure linen thread is used for the stitching. Dalmatians have traveled with the Clydesdales since the 1950's. Dalmatians have long been associated with horses and valued for their speed, endurance and dependable nature. Today, the Dalmatians are perched atop the wagon, seated next to the driver. These high stepping horses make hundreds of public appearances every year, in addition to appearing in television commercials and other Budweiser Beer advertising. The hitch of Clydesdales here in New Hampshire are just one of several owned by Budweiser, which offers free tours of it's brewery located at 221 Daniel Webster Highway, just off Route 3 at Exit 10. Visitors are welcome to visit the Clydesdales at their picturesque stables on the property. You can usually find 8-10 Clydesdales at their stables which are open to the public free of charge all year around. The first Saturday of every month is Clydesdale Camera Day, when visitors have the opportunity to get up close and take plenty of pictures. |
Interviewing a listing agent (seller's agent) over the Internet offers several advantages for you as a seller. You can do a little pre-qualifying before you meet the agent in person and you can see how your agent will use the Internet to communicate with you and to market your home. With more buyers turning to the Internet to view homes, shop for loans, and learn about the home buying process, the agent whom you choose to market your home can't afford not to be in command of this powerful tool called the Internet.
Although many agents will tell you that they can market your home effectively,
you need an agent who can meet several criteria including:
Here are the 10 key questions all but the very best real estate agents hope you don't ask:
(1) How long have you been selling homes in my vicinity?
(2) What are the names, addresses and phone numbers of your five most recent home sellers?
(3) What is your written marketing plan for my home?
(4) Do you sell real estate full-time (dismiss part-time agents unless you want part-time service)?
(5) How many listings do you currently have (beware of agents with too many listings who won't have personal time for your home sale)?
(6) Do you have any office assistants (if so, will I be dealing with you or an assistant)?
(7) What day of the week do you take off and which agent covers for you when you are gone?
(8) Do you plan any vacation during my listing period?
(9) What is your sales-commission fee schedule?
(10) How many homes did you actually sell last year, and how many are in the pipeline to close in the next 4 months?
