The PERFECT Home!

Does this really even exist? I can honestly say I have at one point been in 80% of the homes in Davis County at one point in my life (my mom has been in real estate for almost 40 years). That being said there are many things I love when I see homes, but there is always at 1 attribute that is just not quite perfect.

So, let’s chat~ what would your dream home have? Where would it be located? What kind of style home do you prefer? How many bedrooms/baths?

Here goes a list of what I would want:

A South or West facing 2-story in Centerville. Within walking distance of places to eat and shop. 5 bedrooms upstairs with 3 bathrooms (my husband gets ready for work at 2 AM). On the main would be an office to the right or left of the front door. The office would have built-in shelves. Opposite of the office with be a living room/guest entry room. The main floor would have a laundry room with a mudroom attached coming off of the 3-4 car garage. The kitchen would have grey or white cabinetry with a HUGE pantry! The kitchen would open up to the family room for a great open concept vibe. The backyard would be covered in lush mature trees and a decent enough size for entertaining. Not super picky on the basement depending on the price point of the home. If it is under $500k (ha dreaming) then the basement would not even need to be finished. If the price point was above $700k then I would need a walk-out with a kitchen for rental purposes.

Ok, now universe get to work on creating this home for me 😉

Movie Review

Summer is HOT and a great time to sneak away in a cool theater for a few hours. If you wonder if you can buy tickets at the movie theater in person, Yes, you can go to the movie theater, or even go online, and buy tickets for showings on any day that you want, and you can even buy advance tickets for a movie. I am lucky enough to be a part of the Salt Lake’s film society and therefore I get to screen movies before they come out! My Mr. also gets to join and it makes for a great date night for us!

The last movie we saw was Pixels in 3D. I do not know about you, but any movie in 3D is always cool to me! The story line of the film was a tad dull, but the effects made the hour and forty minutes well worth it my time. Adam Sandler does a decent enough job too. Definitely go see it with the kids! Buy yourself some FroYo and you will enjoy the experience that much more 😀

Next we are seeing “Southpaw” and I am REALLY looking forward to it! Stay tuned I will update you in regards to the film and what my husband and I think of it.

HAPPY TUESDAY~ I AM OFF TO SHOW HOMES!

10 Commandments of Agent Safety

Hi there friends!

Today I am posting something for my fello real estate agents (sorry clients, I still LOVE ya).

There is a HUGE need for publications such as these; especially for those newbie agents. Some of my coaching students have heard the wrath from me about this topic. They will thank me one day! I remember being a new agent and wanting business so desperately and being willing to do just about anything to make that dream a reality. Looking back I definitely made some poor decisions and I am just VERY thankful that my choices did not end badly.

Here is my list of commandments (yes I dare use that word because this is IMPORTANT stuff here folks) :

1. Have a showing itinerary and share it with your office or business partner.
2. Do not ever meet a stranger at any property!
3. Take your car (this should be a given).
4. Avoid working after dark. The client and business will still be there in the A.M. if they are legit.
5. Dress appropriately and for safety.
6. Use prospect ID form that is sent prior to any appointments are even made for a potential client.
7. Make sure your office knows the make of your car and license plate number.
8. If you feel something is off; leave!
9. Have your cell phone armed to call for help if need be. Use a speed dial button for your office or broker too.
10. Try to take someone with you. I am lucky enough to be married to a lender and therefore it works out VERY nicely. In my single days I took my cousin and promised him ice cream afterwards 😀 I highly encourage the buddy system.

HAPPY MONDAY~ GET OUT THERE AND MAKE SOME DREAMS COME TRUE!
