One of the points I always make to homeowners is that emotion is what sells a home.  Realtors can blather on all they want in their marketing pieces about the square footage, and number of bedrooms, and location, and upgrades, etc. Consumers who are looking for their next home are quite inundated with the same junk in every listing theyRead more



Freedom Family Dentistry – A Champion Business

An Untruth Does Not = Transparency

By From http://fredericksburgrealestateblog.com • Feb 4th, 2015 • Category: Blog Entries.Local, RealEstate.Local

One of the things we are taught in business about modern culture is that the consumer wants transparency.  So, a lot of real estate trainers, coaches, gurus, and brokerages insist we must create transparency in our real estate business.  I happen to agree with that wholeheartedly.
