  I’ve broken out the 2008 Kenmore, WA home sale statistics into some interesting categories so you can get a sense of how the housing market has performed this year. I realize we don’t have the year-end numbers yet, but a number of my friends and neighbors have been asking me if the market is as...

THE FIVE STAGES OF GRIEF DENIAL, ANGER, BARGAINING, DEPRESSION, ACCEPTANCE A little over a year ago I attended a “team meeting” at the Keller Williams Realty office where I hung my license. I remember the day clearly because there were a lot of angry and frustrated agents who were having trouble...

I've had too much time to think about all the chaos and grim news out there. I'm going a little bonkers and my wife is about ready to st...

Yesterday was a classic snow day! I hate the snow, but I love an excuse to relax and enjoy some of my favorite pass times: reading and watching movies. Earlier in the day I finished an excellent book entitled ”Outliers” by Malcolm Gladwell (more about this in a future post). I also watched an int...

Over on Gigharborundressed.com my esteemed colleague, Matt Thompson, mentions that he LOVES snow. It's interesting that we both grew up in Utah: Matt in Park City and I in Layton/Salt Lake City. Funny thing is, I love snow as well...................BUT I ABSOLUTELY HATE WHEN IT SNOWS IN THE SEATT...

Take advantage of an excellent NAR service: The Realtor.org Virtual Library. I wasn't aware of the Virtual Library until I received the December 2008 Realtor.org Essentials newsletter. Frankly, I'm amazed at the number of titles and the diversity of the subjects included in the library.   In orde...
