Got to work today at 7am. I am working on switching all my paper docs to PDFs. Thought it would be easy. Not as easy as I thought. I must read every document. I think the shredder and I will become great friends

As a whole the real estate profession is peopled by many ethical, intelligent and responsible sorts. There are, however, times when I wonder how some agents got their licenses. I get documents that were sent to them for their clients to sign returned without signatures. They want to give a lockbox combo to their clients because they have other things to do at that time. They want me to show my listing to their client for similar reasons. Obviously, IQ was not a prerequisite to get a license.

The Bottom

It appears that the bottom is in sight. During the past 2 months my associates and I have noticed an upswing in serious inquiries. We have taken this to be an indicator of consumer confidence increasing. I have also run into multiple offers on homes that have been on the market for a year or more. It is about time to hear good news.
