Yesterday I sent out a message on Twitter that said:
Something big is gonna happen with Thompson’s Realty in the next couple of weeks. You’ll never guess, so don’t even try.
Of course people guessed. While some were creative, no one got close. And things happened a little quicker than I expected…
We are very, VERY excited [...]
Let’s take a quick spin through one of the Circle G Ranches neighborhoods. This one is in Gilbert:
The Circle G Ranch neighborhoods consist of all custom-built homes. At this writing, there are not any homes currently listed for sale in the area where the above video was shot, but some of the other Circle G [...]
. . . ridiculous. Beyond my comprehension.
Kelly Tracy was 16 years old when Manuel Contreras-Galdean got behind the wheel of a car at 6:30 in the morning with a blood-alcohol level over twice the legal limit.
He murdered an amazingly talented, bright and caring young lady. He brought unimaginable pain and suffering to hundreds [...]
Have you heard all of the “we have the lowest rates” or “we get loans done the fastest” sales pitches from your loan officer? I bet you haven’t heard this one before…
The first-time homebuyers tax credit is something I’ve written on extensively since it was first introduced back in February as part of the Stimulus Package. In it’s current incarnation, it is slated to expire on November 30 of this year (2009 for those that may be reading years from now…)
In order to be eligible for [...]
What if you held a contest, and no one entered?
That’s exactly what happened right here, two weeks ago. I announced a video entry contest where three lucky people could pick up a kick ass Ubertor real estate web site for a year. For a dollar.
And there was not one single entry.
Good grief. I’ve had plenty [...]
It’s October, and that means it’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So we’re going pink again to hopefully provide a reminder to anyone reading that you need to:
1) Understand early detection is key. Get a clinical breast exam, mammogram and/or do a self-exam.
2) Think about how horrific this disease is and if you can, support [...]
From the “Huh?” files comes this request from a client’s loan underwriter:
Please provide the following:
1) Fully completed and executed Lead Based Paint Notice to Purchase Agreement.
Of note, the home being purchased was built in the year 2000. Lead based paint ceased to be manufactured in this county c. 1978. The Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction [...]
“Thrilled” may not be a strong enough word to describe my feelings in announcing Shar Rundio has joined our growing family at Thompson’s Realty. Let’s try “jubilant”. Those that know Shar understand she is smart, funny, hard working and treats her clients the way they should be treated.
She’s a perfect fit for what we [...]
If you have ever been a boss in Corporate America before, chances are that you have had the privilege of sitting down and having the “it just isn’t working out” conversation with one of your employees.
Or maybe you have even been lucky enough to be on the receiving end of one of these conversations [...]
Mr. Contreras-Galdean:
On November 15, 2008, you killed Kelly Tracy. Kelly was 16 years old when you decided to get behind the wheel of a car with a blood alcohol level of 0.192 – more than twice the legal limit – at six-thirty in the morning.
This was, according to some reports, the third time you’ve been [...]
