Blogroll

In today’s age, there are web-sites dedicated to everything from finding love to confessing your biggest regrets. So it should come as little surprise that there is a web-site especially designed to warn potential home buyers of less than stellar neighbors in a particular neighborhood .
Perri K. Feldman, author of the NJRealEstateWire blog and fellow Keller Williams agent for the Summit New Jersey office wrote a post highlighting this particular site.
Rotten Neighbor.com reveals the quality of neighbors in towns across America.
Does the quality of neighbors affect todays home prices? Absolutely, suggest June Fletcher.
I have to admit that at first I found it quite comical but soon found myself addicted to the site.
The site contained comments on homes with just a few of the following Neighbors:
- Crazy Woman
- Junk Yard
- Hillbilly’s
- Puff puff…pills berry dough boy
In all fairness, there was a headline entitled AWESOME HOUSE, so it wasn’t all bad.
Check it out! See who is being a bad boy/girl in your backyard. Oh and by the way, I did check out my neighbors in Colts Neck. The coast is clear.

After reading about “Conan” the praying dog, I wondered if I could teach Tyler to sell real estate?
After barely mastering the art of off leash training, I decided to instead write to the doggy lama himself and ask for spiritual enlightenment in the real estate field.
Any real estate prayer requests can be forwarded to The Bandy Group……..I mean Conan.

Mid-Week my cell phone rings and like clock work; it was my 7:30am daily call from my client.
Please do not feel bad for me because yes, I’m actually up and have been since 6am.
It’s my usual routine that I have come to enjoy over the past month with her. Nothing out of the ordinary. I drink my coffee and discuss her home as she drives to work and battles the morning commute.
On Wednesday I’m asked the question that no realtor should ever be asked.
I believe If one is doing their job correctly than the following words should never be uttered from a clients mouth.
“Sarah”, “Are you a committed realtor?”
My response came quickly. “Absolutely” I stated loud and clear!
My brain didn’t have a chance to process a more sophisticated answer. What I really wanted to say was: “have you not read my top ten?”
Then came the question:
“I knew you would say that” she responded, “Can you dog sit on Friday?”
DOG SIT??????
My whole image of the “Realtor Extraordinaire” came down to if I could dog sit or not.
Being the dog lover that I am, how could I refuse. 
So there I was Friday night hanging out with two Yorkshire Terriers Sebastian & Oliver plus my two Pomeranians. What a sight!!!
All in all it was fun and I officially get to keep my title of being a committed realtor!

I would like to take a moment to thank Jim Ruppert from Countrywide home loans for inviting The Bandy Group to be one of his few special guests at the annual “Spring Fling” celebration hosted by Countrywide.
This Grande event was held at the PNC Bank Arts Center and attended by more than 100 individuals consisting of real estate agents, brokers and vendors.
I would also like to thank all of our new friends from the many real estate agencies throughout Middlesex and Monmouth County for a fantastic night! You guys were so much fun.

I have the pleasure to work with these two top notch agents in my home-town of Colts Neck.

You know that we can’t do it without you Fern.
You are the go to girl!
Thanks again Jim. You are the best. Can’t wait to do it again next year.

Hi! I'm Tyler.
I'm always sitting under my Mom's desk as she does her Real Estate work.
No one knows who I am so I thought I'd create this blog and introduce myself.
I am a 4 year old Pomeranian. I share my home with my sister Tinkerbell, who happens to be a 3 year old T.Cup Pomeranian.
T.Cup is just a fancy term for “midget”. Tinkerbell is 3lbs; full grown; I know, I know, how cute, right?
I live in Colts Neck New Jersey and my mom is Sarah Bandy, a Real Estate agent who works for Better Homes Realty, the Colts Neck office.
Please check in often as I will be blogging all about the upcoming news and life underneath my Mom's desk! Plus Sarah herself and some contributing writers will also be hanging around to talk Real Estate. Hope to hear from you soon.
BARK BARK!
