Post image for Why Isn’t My Home Getting Shown?

We’ve all read the answers here on why homes don’t sell or get showings.  It’s a “no duh” moment when people say (1) it’s priced too high, (2) it needs to be staged, (3) the location is bad, (4) it’s in poor condition.  We all know that.  Your problem here is you’re listed with someone who is afraid to be honest with you. Just getting started with this post. More here>>

Closing Time 101

by Megan on February 22, 2012

Guest blog by closing expert Steve Morris.

Whether you are buying or selling a home, the culmination of your transaction will be an event called the closing. At your closing, the Realtor, mortgage lender (if you’re getting a loan), title attorney and client work together to properly transfer property from the seller to the buyer.

Mercedes Half Marathon

February 21, 2012

My first half marathon of 2012 was the Mercedes Half Marathon in Birmingham, AL. It had been almost 2 months since my last half marathon and even longer since the last half that I “raced” and didn’t just run. I was so excited about this run. Lots of our friends and fellow runners were going to either do the half or the marathon relay. There had been some discussion between myself, Gail and Jeanie about racing or just running this race. We’d heard lots about the hills on the course and thought maybe it would be better just to run it and not try to PR. However, I knew that between my kettlebell classes and my twice a week small group runs, that I was in really good shape. The morning of the race Gail was asking us our goal for the race. I kind of stuttered about mine, still a little unsure. I knew I wanted to race it, but I wasn’t sure I could PR.

Why Am I Not Getting Any Feedback On My Home Showing?

February 12, 2012
