Of Whales and Mice…
November 13, 2011
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:
Florist
Limo company
JP
DJ
Event Planner
Band manager
Caterer
Event Planner
Wedding Planner
Baker
Real estate attorney
Interested? Let me know!
The Whales on a Whirlwind for Saturday
November 13, 2011
Fred and Ethel got a great taste of Real Estate on Saturday! So much so…we have limited photos of their activities.
They started out with some showings on their listings…specifically 325 Elm Str in Framingham. Elm Street is a short sale with upscale renovations that are “almost” complete. Some elbow grease and this modified ranch in North Framingham on the Sudbury line will SHINE!
From there…the whales moved on to a new client. Fred took a call on late Friday afternoon from a lovely young couple who are trying to relocate from Troy NY to Marlborough because they have an incredible job offer on the table. With only two weeks to orchestrate the move and only one day to find a new place to live – they are urgent! Ethel saw how great this couple is and wanted to help! With a flurry of phone calls and some last-minute showing requests – Fred and Ethel find them a great rental in Assabet Village in Hudson. The couple is thrilled and the whales are excited!
After a quick stop to refuel (Fred and Ethel can really pound the espresso!) They are off to meet a local contractor at another short sale to assess any necessary repairs and schedule the clean up work. The sellers have moved on so the point of contact has become the Realtor. Luckily it’s only down trees and no damage to the property except for a basketball hoop and the mailbox. The Whales are not pictured here due to safety concerns.
And then they are off to ensure that the open houses for Sunday are scheduled and staffed! Thanks to the great team at RE/MAX Professional Associates, Fred and Ethel are confident that the open houses at the following locations on Sunday will go well!
