Moving…More fun than a barrel of monkeys!

I have moved several times in my life. From coast to coast and all over the west. However that did not prepare me for my recent move across town. Was it different because I did it alone?

Or have you ever wondered what the difference between a real estate agent and a Realtor is? Well I would like to explain some of the key things that separate the two and make a Realtor stand out over a real estate agent. One thing you need to know Realtors are constantly battling and lobbying Congress and the powers to be, including the big lending institutions, to keep it real for the home sellers and buyers. We do amazing things. We are currently lobbying to extend mortgage debt forgiveness tax relief now. This is huge if you are a homeowner facing a short sale or foreclosure. Bigger than HUGE!
