My blog covers whatever is on my mind. It travels the spectrum from Real Estate in Northern Virginia, local events, market reports, neighborhood data, business profiles and personal stories, and once in a while just some random craziness. I hope you enjoy it, and please feel free to drop a note.

My main goal in 2011 was to open my real estate brokerage, get it established and then devote my time to building a web-presence that I could build upon in 2012.  I'm fortunate that my real estate business is not my sole source of income.  That gives me a little freedom that many of my colleagues...

Our family had a great Christmas with lots of loved ones around, and throughout Christmas day I realized that there were many lessons to learn.  For instance, No matter how old you are, you're still your parent's children.  That's not necessarily a bad thing, but they do tend to want to take care...

Christmas Eve has always held special memories since I became a Christian in 1977.  I spent many of my Christmas Eves in a prison somewhere sharing the true meaning of Christmas with the men and women who had taken up residence there.  It was a special time for me, and hopefully it lightened thei...

The one thing I love about this time of year is the sense of hope that is born in the hearts of people both near and far.  Sure, there are those who decide to act like total morons by beating each other at a local store or by spraying shoppers with pepper spray, etc., but I see a much greater and...

It's almost Christmas, and Santa is sitting in stores all over the county taking orders.  He should probably be home doing the final plans for the big event, but I digress.  Thinking about these faux Santas scattered near and far has made wonder what kids would say if they weren't threatened prio...

  Peter and Linda do a good job dismissing the comparison of Realtors to used car salesmen.  Nothing wrong with used car sales, but it's just not the same thing.  Enjoy, and please drop by their blog to leave a comment.  Thanks!!    Please,..... Don't Compare Us Realtors With Car Salespeople!!!  ...
