Well, my personal life is finally starting to get caught up with and now I’m noticing my streaky real estate business picking up again. One thing I have always noticed that is a problem in my business model is that I am very streaky. I will go 2 or 3 weeks with a small amount of business and then all the sudden have a month where I am too busy to see straight. I would like to achieve more consistency so that neither of these things happen.

I was talking with a buyer of mine today about the mortgage he is working to attain. He was discussing how it makes him nervous that he has five different people calling him from all sides of his loan asking for information. Unfortunately, this is fallout from the mortgage crisis…buyers must provide much more documentation.

If this is the first time you have read my blog this post may not make as much sense to you…but to my regular readers I must apologize. Two weeks ago I mentioned that I had family coming into town and rather than neglect my blog I would write about our experiences as a tourist. Well, two weeks later and I’m just now catching up and taking the time to sit down and blog. So, needless to say I am not going to take the time to go into detail about all of our experiences.

I really thought that I would be able to take the time to sit down and go through my experiences. While I had time occasionally to relax by myself…I frankly did not want to spend it blogging. I did make several observations in the past two weeks that are worth sharing with you…my faithful readers. I apologize again for first time readers as this is probably not going to be my favorite post…so go ahead, skip around my blog and read some of my past informational posts. …more

See, we have family coming in town from Guam originally from Thailand who have never been to the continental United States. The next two weeks will be chaotic with 8 people and a dog living in our 1000 sq. ft. condo. Lots of travelling, lots of food, and lots of sites to see.

At the same time, I am trying to build my business during the hot summertime Real Estate market. I have a client who we are trying to work a very creative financing deal that must be signed around in the next few days to make it work. While some of the family is out prepping at the Asian market and grabbing lunch I decided to stay home to work and get ahead. Well, now I have a couple of minutes and decided that instead of ignoring my blog readers for two weeks I would have some fun keeping you informed of what I like to do as a tourist when family comes into town. …more
