All In A Day's Work Of A Realtor

It seems that blogging is the latest rage, well, maybe not the latest.  Perhaps I'm a little late to the game, but I'm certainly not going to be the last one to the game.

It's All In A Day's Work....what in the world does a Realtor do all day?  Well, let me tell you!  If you're full-time and it's your profession, YOU WORK!  I start my day much like anyone else in many other professions.  Log in, check email, prioritize, look at my calendar and of course check Facebook.  It's almost 2:30pm and I haven't had one bon-bon.  For the record, I don't think I've ever made or purchased bon-bon's.  Do you bake those?

I spent this morning trying to get someone from Lakeway Code Enforcement on the phone to confirm what I knew.  As it turns out, I was right.  I can place one brochure box within the property lines of the home I have recently listed.  My client would like the box placed near the street, but if I do this, I risk being cited and fined by the City of Lakeway.  I think we'll just keep the box near her home.

Then, spent a bit of time on the phone trying to get feedback from a showing I had on Sunday.  This is basically asking the showing agent what they liked, what their client liked and how we could make this house better.  Nothing too earth shattering was uncovered with this today.  I also had the opportunity to be on the receiving-end in that I provided feedback.  I had to break it to another agent that my clients really aren't interested in living practically on top of the railroad tracks.  Someone will, but not the folks I'm working with at this time.

Was this all I did today?  Oh Lord no, but that's why I have another 360 days in the year to share!
