Colts Neck And Beyond


991955_moonI thought it was tough enough trying to keep up with the housing market in Monmouth County but after a client recently asked about the validity of a web site called Lunar Registry , well, I had to wonder if she was a little spacey herself, literally.

The above web site is the Earth’s Leading Lunar Real Estate Agency and for the bargain price of $18.95, you can own an acre of land on the Moon.

Just like with the real estate on Earth, location, location, location will always come into play. A premium lot on the moon can go for as high as $32.00 an acre if you choose to be in the high end section known as “Bay of Rainbows.”

I guess with the recent discovery of a possible 10th planet right behind Pluto, it is not unusual that people are starting to look ahead.

Either way, I thought it was a cute idea and makes an interesting gift. 

As for me, I’m light years away from getting my realtors license on the moon but can answer any questions you may have regarding Monmouth County real estate right here and now.

New Jersey Realtor Committed Friday Night


868472_blue_phone_2Mid-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.

 

953219_my_cuppa_teaIt’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?”

CIMG1702 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. CIMG1700

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!

5 Things You Didn’t Know About Sarah Bandy


I just got Meme’d by Justin Smith, who just shared 5 interesting things about himself over at http://hismove.com/blog/ahhhh-active-rain-memes-are-back/, so make sure you take a peek over at his site when you get a chance, number 3 really surprised me!

What are Meme’s? If you don’t know what they are, don’t feel bad. I didn’t know what they were either until Justin showed me this link, try this.

Basically, Meme’s are a high tech version of the old fashion chain letter.  I am not one to break tradition so here goes:

For all of you that do know me, you know how hard it was for me to come up with 5 things to share with everyone. I’m basically an open book. I share my successes as well as my failures. My past makes me the women I am today so I never get offended when someone wants to ask me a personal question.

After much thought and consideration I came up with the Fab 5.

 

Purple1. Purple Is My Favorite Color.

Don’t ask me why Purple is my favorite color because I don’t have purple clothing, I don’t own anything Purple, I don’t have Purple art work but I just seem to gravitate towards that color. Always have since I was a child. They say that Purple is the color of Royalty, hey, maybe in a past life .

899000_halloween2. Halloween Is My Favorite Holiday.

I love Halloween. I’m like a big kid. I decorate the entire house. I enjoy dressing up and hosting Halloween Parties.

 

875962_window_droplets3. I Love When It Rains.

This is not a good thing for someone in my profession as clients do not like to view homes in the rain but I love it. I like to keep my windows open and just hear the sound it makes.

 

4. I’m A Neat Freak.347358_home_interiors_2

Not to the point where I’m OCD about it but I like things in their place. I feel that I think more clearly when things are clean and out of the way. If my desk gets cluttered which it often does than I have to put it on my “To Do List” and make sure everything is in its place. The same goes for my home.

 

 

905914_mulholland_drive5.  I Have An Annoying Neighbor.

Won’t take “No” for an answer. Enough Said.

 

Meme’s are like a game of tag. I was tagged by Justin Smith now its my turn to tag the following players:

Tim Schwartz       Century 21

Perri K. Feldman   NJ Real Estate Wire

Janis Gagliardi      Port Orange Juice
