Every day is different in the world of Real Estate, and that is one of the reasons I absolutely love what I do.
A DAY IN THE LIFE..
You never know what you will run into while showing farm & ranch property; wild goats, pigs or rattlesnakes. I was unaware that rattlesnakes actually travel in pairs until listing a 300 acre+ ranch adjacent to Tommy Lee Jones’s property north of Austin, Tx. I learned a few great lessons listing that property: (1) rattlesnakes travel in pairs, (2) what an armadillo hole looks like and (3) never drive your jeep across pencil cactus..all tires will be flat within 24 hours.
Marie, an agent who has been on my team for 12 years, is such a trooper. She will always carry a pair of gloves, a trash bag and Lysol spray in her car just in case she may need to pick up something disgusting (again) prior to showing a buyer through a vacant property! Great reason to arrive early!
When I have a closing, I do a walk-through the morning of closing.. just in case the entire interior is under water.
Always take a property video for your buyers and sellers of the property you just placed under contract..just in case the buyer, post-closing, truly believes the seller has taken all of the non-existent blinds throughout the home, or you find that the seller has removed the $2000 ice maker and replaced it with a 1970’s trash compactor.
