The above photo shows the beautiful view that now greets my client Anna each day as she relaxes on her back patio or in her living room at 854 Lake View Dr.! A lease home on Lake Conroe is an exciting residence for those who love the open water- and there lovely homes available for under $2,000/month.
Anna and I met recently at my church following her relocation to the Houston area from Hawaii. Hawaii is difficult to leave behind, she tells me, and water views were something she didn’t want to be without. We began searching for lake front homes for lease on Lake Conroe and visited several, but none could compare with the amenities and gorgeous view at 854 Lake View Dr., a listing held by a local Lake Conroe real estate broker. After negotiating a satisfactory lease, we went from signed contract to Anna’s move-in date in less than 1 week!
If you are searching for a Lake Conroe lease home with waterfront, please contact me today to begin your search!

Take Charge of Your Attitude and Sell More Real Estate!
IMHO...
Our attitudes, as well as our thoughts, actions and the love we choose to give are all CHOICES.
If you want a better attitude....make better choices.
Be grateful there is work to be done. Boredom kills and challenges keep you "thinking".
Quit grumbling and count your blessings. We all have them.
Thank our Nation for giving us the right and the choice to vote.
Thank our customers for being loyal.
Offer to help a friend, colleague, or client with no expectations.
Remind your clients that you will be there for them when they need you.
Allow yourself only two kinds of days....good and great. It's your choice.
Your answer to, "how is business" should be "GREAT." (would you want to do business with a whiney, gripey, naysayer? Not me...
Say, "thank you" with your heart. Even if you wish the outcome were different.
Open your mind to alternative thinking...work the mind without judgement.
Be glad to be here and others will be glad to be around you!
My list could go on for days...Just remember that if you place your best attitude forward you will acquire business. You are the kind of person everyone WANTS to work with.
And, I'm talking to myself here too!
Believe it. Live it.

Home is where the heart is...
As Professionals we have the drill down now don't we? We question, we qualify, we place, but are we actually doing the best for our clients? Are we finding out where their hearts are?
Couples, singles, families, all have their specifications of their perfect "living ideals".
Maybe you have a woman that works full time and her only relax time is in the den?
Maybe you have a full time home maker that spends 40% of her time in the kitchen or maybe her idea is to make the perfect home for her husband?
Do you ask the right questions? Yes, I'm sure you ask questions....that's a given. But, are you "breaking the ice enough to find out the true motivation" of your buyer?
Sometimes, the best of sales is to just listen to your buyers. Just listen. They may not tell you specifically just what you are needing to know. BUT, if you truly listen, you can learn more than meets the ear! Listen to the comments made and the dynamics of their relationship to find what they are looking for.
They may not even know yet what their ideal home is.
If you listen, you could be the one to give them that discovery.
Now, that's doing your job!
Do it.

This one won't be coming up on Google you know. No such word. I first heard this from Jason Crouch. Yes, the famous, or is it the infamous Jason Crouch? He's off making bookoos of money for his family as we speak. We are all trying to do the same. What is it you ask? This word? Halloween, Thanksgiving and of course, Christmas or Hanakkuh depending on your choice! They are all beginning to blend together. Help keep the "commercialism" from our Holidays!
WooHoo! We are in the season of celebrating.
The word "celebrating" almost brings to mind the word "cerebral" meaning "that of the brain" and I guess we are "thinking" of celebrations! I walk into almost any store now and I can see blinking lights on trees and Santa Claus and forget about Turkeys as they are almost ready to ditch to the compost. We just keep jumping ahead of ourselves to slam the advertising of the next way to spend money! Let's get over the "commercialism" of these holidays and go back to the roots of the holidays.
Let's enjoy "people" and "friends" and "family" and get back on the track of what holidays are all about!!Please, my dear friends, let's celebrate life, freedom, the potential of wealth and the ability to become friends! We have the ability to become a community and that is exactly what we all want! I do not know my city and the people who live here nearly as well as I know YOU! Thank you for that.
YOU are what makes a community and the reason to celebrate holidays!!!! So, as we move into Hallow-Thanks-Mas, please continue to blog. It's a great time of the year to reach google and clients and even new friends. I just want to say that I'm glad to be here. I am also glad you are here. Stay safe and confident in what you have to offer the world. Never stop trying and placing your best foot forward.
We have other holidays coming up and I hope to share them with you! Keep writing and bringing AR close to your heart and pocketbook!
See ya soon!

It is a daily guarantee. Nothing we do, nothing we know, and no one we know will remain the same. Philosophy is one of deep thought, "educational concepts" that haunt each of us even if we never had formal education. Whether you realize it or not, it will haunt you.
EXAMINE ALL POSSIBILITIES
Change. What does it mean?
As humans it means we have yet another mountain to climb. We have yet another problem to solve. We have yet another heart to heal and yet another dilemma to dissolve. We can do it. We were placed upon this earth to absorb, then rationalize and to then react. Our inclinations are to revert to primal thinking. This would mean thinking of one's self first and foremost.
But, as civilized man, we are much more progressive than that. We, as civilized and educated man, instead of primal reactions, act and react with "thought and reasoning". It is not unreasonable. Change is necessary for each and every one of us to survive. Remember the old saying, "if you do the same thing over and over again, you will receive the same results...and that is the definition of "crazy"?" My advice. Accept change and go with the flow. Accept the change within your personal life and your professional life. This might mean to re-evaluate a "no-no" for you from the past. Possibly see the good in the possibilities and accept the change. In Real Estate we are changing each and every day. We use to put our foot down and say, "no way are you advertising my listing!!!" My question to you is...."were you thinking of yourself or your client? So many things are changing daily that we must adapt or accept our demise. Aren't we here to sell and co-operate in the sales for our clients? Isn't this our Fiduciary responsibility?"
Loosen up. Half (50%) a commission is a whole lot better than (100%) of nothing! Do what you need to do to advertise and share your listings. It's only fair for your clients! Love your clients and sell their properties.
Like I said. "Loosen up."
