Of Whales and Mice…

Fred and Ethel…the BNI Whales…had a good taste of a sunny Sunday in real estate and *stuff*!  They started the day at 4:30am because Ethel couldn’t sleep very well.  She’s pretty nervous about making sure we can stall the foreclosure sale on a property before the end of the month and wanted to pull some more information together.  Fred was a bit annoyed at the early hour but as he said “early to bed early to rise, makes a BNI Whale Healthy Wealthy and Wise”…or something to that effect.

After a showing at the new listing, the Whales were thrilled to get an offer on the condo they just listed on Friday!  Amazing!  Fred remarked that is what happens with a well priced, well marketed listing and timed release to market.  The sellers are happy – the BNI Whales are happy and Sunday brimmed with sunshine!

Off to do some more showings and check in on the open houses in Rutland and Leicester.  Apparently the mouse solution in the walk up attic worked well because it rained deceased mice on to a prospective home buyer.  Consulted with the home owner and we won’t have that happening again (sorry Wendy!).  Leicester had good traffic and Fred and Ethel think we’ll have it under contract early this week.  I think they are right – they are getting the hang of real estate quickly!

Fred and Ethel finished up the day with scheduling showings for Monday and Tuesday, confirming meetings and visiting Lowes to look for indoor lighting solutions for the living room.  Holding back from calling Chris McGarry – the electrician for the 7 Hills BNI Group (top rated with service magic ) to find out how to make an outdoor light an indoor one – Fred and Ethel settled on a new light fixture with the husband and called it a day.

Each profession is allowed just one representative per BNI Group – that means that you will no competition within the group for referrals!  We are currently looking for a variety of industries…such as:
