As I write my “message from the president” this month, I feel honored to have recently attended REALTOR® meetings in Washington, DC. I was able to speak with Congressmen on key issues and House Bills that affect every homeowner in America. While there, I also had the opportunity to gather with 23,000 REALTORS® from across this great nation at a Political Rally, near the Washington Monument, to benefit homeownership and property rights of all home buyers and sellers. As we look to the future, we all know and realize that until Real Estate starts selling again, we cannot come completely out of this recession. For every new construction home that is sold, it creates 57 new jobs and pumps more money into our economy in the way of lumber, appliance packages, carpet and flooring, electric, landscaping...everything it takes to build a home.

As you start your search for a new or second home, be sure to ask if your agent is a REALTOR®. REALTORS® attend mandated classes by the National Association of REALTORS® organization and continue to educate themselves for an ever changing market. As we move forward, our market is showing signs of improvement, and as a REALTOR® I am starting to see property sell, but not at the higher prices of a few years ago. If you have been on the fence about purchasing a home, NOW is the time to purchase that home!

Keep An Open Mind When looking for property, it’s always best to let your REALTOR® guide you. No one knows the area and what the mountains have to offer better than a professional REALTOR®. A great number of clients come with their “wish list,” but often have no idea about the diversity of our area. We offer mountain top peaks with vistas “to die for”, valley properties with great fertile farm land, hollows with cool breezes to beat the summer heat, noisy branches, creeks, rivers and even waterfalls. Many folks buy things they never knew was available. I always like to show the unusual places. The older remodeled farm house with outbuildings, the hunting shack next to the big creek, the historic home downtown made of real granite, the real log cabin tucked away in the woods.

After the buyers pick a few they really want to see, I figure out what they REALLY want. First, I listen to the vision of what they came for. We all have a dream of what we expect mountain living to be like. Then I always ask, “Can I show you a few of my favorite things?” All local REALTORS® will have the best spots noted. I have sold “green homes” half underground, all glass chalets, huge elegant mountain retreats, small lakefront log homes, and even stilt homes hanging off the cliffs. My favorite thing to see are the faces of my clients when they walk into something they never expected to find and fall in love with it. With so much on the market right now, it’s easy to find that gem among the pebbles. You just need to be willing to look for them. So my advice to you is to come “willing” to explore and make it an adventure!
