In just about everyplace I have ever been, or worked at , had anything to do with it seems that 20 percent of the people do about 80 percent of the work. I am not just talking about my job as a Realtor in Blue Ridge,GA at RE/MAX Around the Mountains, but even at church and other areas of my life....

All the Realtors in the free world know that lead generation is very important,but we somehow forget to follow through. I must confess that I am guilty of this offense! I have spent thousands of dollars on a website, print ads ,billboards , and many other advertising methods only to forget about ...

The last few clients that I have had seem to be really intrested in "going Green", so I have decided it may be time for me to establish myself as a "Green Realtor". I know this sounds a little hokie but it is the trend in the Mountains of North Georgia. I have always tried to take care of what Go...

I am very thankful that i live in Blue Ridge, Georgia! I am also very thankful that most all of the Realtors here are in one accord. I feel like North Georgia is an awesome place to be in this business, because of it's natural beauty and friendly people. The entire Real Estate Community has had i...

My customers are not that hard to please and would buy a little better than average pri...

Here in America, We take a lot for granted. Food, Shelter, Warmth ,etc. without even thinking about the reason way we have it so good. I also know their are those who do not have as much as others and do suffer. The poorest American is considered rich by the largest percentage of the world. In ma...

In the lean times you really find out who you can count on. I have had Braves Tickets for a month and Memorial Weekend is probably not the best day to schedule such an event. While I was eating $6.00 Hot Dog and drinking $6.50 drinks may phone rang, It was a good customer who decided to come up f...

Over the past few days, I have been doing a lot of thinking about the value of being a life member of the million dollar club or just the million dollar club. I sometimes wonder if the general public really even cares about it or evens understands the numbers. I wonder if they might think we are ...

This is not an official report of any kind and there are no facts to back it up,but I am starting to feel better about our market. I do not hear how bad it is as much, I am getting as many leads as I have ever gotten from my web-site, and I see a lot of folks looking around at RE books in the loc...
