Attorneys practice law. Doctors practice medicine. Realtors practice real estate. Practice, lets see what Webster says:
1 a: carry out, apply <practice what you preach> b: to do or perform often, customarily, or habitually
<practice politeness> c: to be professionally engaged in <practice medicine>2 a: to perform or work at repeatedly so as to become proficient <practice the act> b: to train by repeated exercises <practice pupils in penmanship>3obsolete : plotintransitive verb1: to do repeated exercises for proficiency2: to pursue a profession actively3archaic : intrigue4: to do something customarily.
This is what I do, real estate transactions. Quite a few every month on a regular basis for several years now. Granny use to tell me "Practice makes perfect." Well, some transactions are perfect. However, if I am honest with you, not very many.
Real estate transactions are customized. That is a euphemism for each one has it's own craziness. (Euphemism: the substitution of an agreeable or inoffensive expression for one that may offend or suggest something unpleasant;) There may be some cookie cutter homes, however, there is no such thing as a cookie cutter real estate transaction.
There are so many variables and obstacles which must be over come in order to get an offer of purchase to settlement. There are the basics, qualified buyer, home inspection negotiations, appraisal and title work. But finding a qualified buyer when the mortgage industry changes daily in of itself is a feat. Appraisers are having their own difficulties getting properties to appraise with a volatile market. In addition, getting a clear title is a problem I've been dealing with more and more lately. Lien releases not being filed properly especially on home equity lines seems to be a regular occurrence.
Just like an athlete practices and gets better and better so does a real estate agent. Even though we practice real estate just like a brain surgeon practices medicine. I'd rather have an expert brain surgeon practicing on me rather than a novice.

Smith Mountain Lake is located in Southwestern Virginia approximately one hour from Lynchburg in the Blue Ridge Mountains. With 500 miles of shoreline, SML covers three counties Franklin, Bedford and Pittsylvania. The lake was created in the 1960's primarily to generate electricity. The Blackwater and Roanoke Rivers were dammed, Smith Mountain Lake began filling in 1963 and was at full pond by 1966.

Smith Mountain Lake Dam by boat
The water surface covers 32 square miles. Normal or full pond level is 795 feet above sea level. The lake is deepest near the dam at approximately 250 feet. The average depth is 55 feet. This past year, we experienced a drought and the level dropped approximately five feet. I'm happy to report that the lake has recovered to normal levels since AEP restricted the outflow of water.
The average temperature is 73F in summer, 41F in winter. The average rainfall is 43 inches and snowfall average is 10 inches.
Visit the Dam
Take some time to check out the Visitor Center at the Dam. You'll learn how electricity is generated by American Electric Power. The kids will like the computer models, theatre, hands on exhibits. There are picnic facilites with grills at the base of the dam.
