Posts By Bob McCranie

I am so proud to run Texas Pride Realty Group. We set out on a mission in 2009 to serve the diverse communities of Texas and to hire kick-ass agents who practice the highest ethics and professionalism. I believe that the agent's role is to help the consumer make well-educated decisions, even if those decisions lead away from a purchase or sale.

I believe that education is vital in this industry. I currently have over 1300 hours of real estate courses on my transcript with the State of Texas. Additionally, I am a Real Estate Business Coach at Tom Ferry International, the largest-real-estate specific coaching company in the world. I coach agents in the US and Canada, and have coached clients in Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, and Switzerland. I also have knowledge of the UK and Irish markets.

Opening Texas Pride Realty was always a goal of mine and I am working night and day to be sure it is successful. The best way to do that is to be sure clients are satisfied and agents are busy. What better legacy could someone leave in this industry than a group of well-trained, high-quality brokers who do your job better than you?

Home Automation

July 8, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie, with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is Home Automation. We are talking about Alexa, we are talking about Google Home. Let’s talk to our sphere of influence, see how many people have them already, see how many don’t understand them. This would be a great post for Facebook, this would be a good post probably for Instagram, if you want to post pictures of what the two products look like, maybe have a side by side poll.

By the way, polls are a great thing on Facebook. Polls get more ratings than a lot of other things. So, maybe you can have a picture of the Alexa, a picture of the Google Home, see which one people like the best. And let’s talk about home automation and ways that you can use smart thermostats, smart locks, smart switches, things like that that you can do around your home to make it either run more efficient, or just easier to live in. So, also more secure. So you have the home security systems, you have camera systems. Anyway, you pick your aspect of home automation and post about it today. Bob McCranie, there’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow, take care. Bye-bye.

Kitchens!

July 7, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is kitchens.

So let’s talk to our sphere of influence and go out on Pinterest and maybe post pictures of kitchens in your home construction or pictures of kitchens from back in the day. Let’s talk about kitchens and what’s the most essential part of one. What part of the kitchen is absolutely necessary? What part of the kitchen could you do without? What amazing kitchen would they want to see in their new home and then let’s go sell them that new home?

Kitchens are something where generations get together and learn recipes from each other, they have memories of cooking together and baking and doing all these things. The kitchen is the heart of the home. So let’s talk about what kitchen people would want to see in their new house, then let’s go sell it to them. And use your Tumblr, use your Instagram, use your Facebook. Post pictures of kitchens. Have people pick what they like. Visual, keep it up and visual. Let them see it.

Anyway, Bob McCranie. There’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

Farm Day!

July 6, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is farm day.

Let’s talk about where there are farmers’ markets in your area. I know in my part of town, there’s at least three each weekend. I know there’s one on Thursdays. And these are places, obviously, where people bring their organic produce or their homemade whatever, their products that they make on their farm or in their backyard, or organic eggs, things like that.

Let’s talk about, as people get healthier and they’re eating more organic, healthy things, let’s talk about where in your area there’ll be farmers’ markets where people can meet each other. Maybe you know of one, you can go and host a table yourself and have your real estate company there for the day.

So let’s talk about farmers’ markets, let’s put them on a map, let’s put them on a calendar, remind our sphere where they can go get healthy, locally-grown items that they would love. So anyway, talk about farms, talk about farming, maybe if you grew up in a farm, you know more about farms than I ever would, let’s talk about that.

Bob McCranie, Realty Idea of the Day, there’ll be another posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

Summer Movies

July 5, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is summer movies.

So what are the big box office hits this summer? What are the sleepers that maybe somebody haven’t heard of? What were the summer movies when you grew up? Maybe that’s a good question to post to your sphere. “Hey, guys, when you graduated high school, what were the summer movies that you spent a lot of time with?” I remember growing up, it was “Empire Strikes Back,” it was “War Games,” it was “Top Gun,” it was “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” I’m showing my age here.

So what are the current summer movies? What would the kids want to go see? Where’s the best theater in your area? I know there are theaters now that you reserve your seat, you get this really nice, laidback seat you fall asleep in. You’re gonna have drinks and food brought to you. You don’t have to go wait in the concession line. Talk about the best theater in your area. Remember, we’re no longer selling houses, we are selling a lifestyle so show people what it’s gonna be like to live in your city.

Anyway, Bob McCranie, today’s idea is summer movies. Let’s talk about those and there’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

July 4th!

July 4, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and Happy Fourth of July. Today is, if I time this right, should be the Fourth of July.

So let’s go out on our sphere of influence and talk about what our country means to us. And not being mean or political in any way, shape or form, what does the country mean to us? What do our freedoms mean? Maybe talk about the Red, White and Blue. Talk about any aspect of this land is your land.

Let’s talk about what it is, for you, that this country means. Is it the American dream of owning a home? Is it the American dream of owning a farm? Is it just… What is it to you? Let people know how you feel about, you know, being here and enjoying the Fourth of July. And of course, take a few minutes for yourself and your family. Go out, tune out for a little while, and enjoy.

Remember, we are no longer real estate agents, we are social medial companies fighting for attention in the field of housing. So go out there and post, post, and then go have some fun. Take care. Bye-bye.

Pool’s Open

July 3, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and today, this Realty Idea of the Day is pool’s open.

Let’s talk about pools and Fourth of July and I know I’m having a pool party, so let’s talk about pool safety. Let’s talk about what it cost to put a pool in versus buying a new home with a pool already in it. I know in our area, digging a pool’s gonna cost you about $70,000. But buying a home with one in it only raises the value of the home about $15,000. So let’s talk about whether or not they wanna buy…your sphere wants to buy a home that already has a pool dug in, whether they wanna dig in their own, what are the costs of each. How somebody can maybe use their equity to dig themselves an amazing pool.

Fourth of July time, talk about pool parties, let’s talk about pool safety, the alarms that you can put on the side of the pool, or actually, I think they float in the pool, to tell you when somebody’s gotten in the water, maybe your kid got out and you need to know. Let’s talk about latching systems and fencing and things like that for pools.

Anyway, pool safety. Bob McCranie, there’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

BBQ!!

July 2, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and today’s Realty Idea of the Day is BBQ.

It’s Fourth of July time. I know in Texas, barbecue means ribs and it means sausage and chicken. I mean, we go out and we grill everything. In other parts of the country, barbecue is a very specific thing. Memphis barbecue, different than how they’re gonna do it down in the Deep South.

So let’s talk about barbecue and grilling out and maybe the newest grills that are out there, things you can have in your outdoor kitchen. Let’s talk about barbecuing out and safety with barbecues, you know, how not to put it under your house, light your house on fire, how not to use the wrong accelerant to get it going.

Anyway, find your perspective on barbecuing, going out there and partying for the Fourth of July and enjoying your time with your sphere and let’s do it safely. Let’s talk about the styles of it, the recipes, the sauces, anything to do with barbecuing.

Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

Fireworks!

July 1, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is fireworks.

Where in your area can you go see fireworks for the Fourth of July? Let’s talk about and blog about the best displays in the area. Now, I know in Dallas, the different suburbs do fireworks on different days so people have the opportunity to see the fireworks on 3rd and the 4th. So if you’re in Plano or Carrollton, you can go to different displays different nights.

Talk about where the best displays are in your town, maybe show some pictures of last year’s display. Show people what it’s like to live in your town and where the best fireworks are for Fourth of July. And also, talk about fireworks safety so that people don’t go out and light their hand on fire or do something crazy. Don’t fire off fireworks in the city, that sort of thing.

So let’s talk about fireworks and where is the safest, best display in your area. This is Bob McCranie, reality ideas per day, there’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted here tomorrow. Bye-bye.

2018_06_11 – FINANCING!

June 12, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone, Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and your Realty Idea of the Day is financing options.

So, maybe you could interview a lender, or maybe you could just do this if you have the knowledge yourself. Let’s explain to people the difference between what an FHA loan is, what a VA loan is, what a conventional…and let’s talk about what the different options are for buying a home. Cash is king. Cash is great. Don’t tell… I would not turn down cash, but let’s talk about financing options, conventional FHA, VA, or the common ones. Here in Texas, they have USDA for some parts of Texas. Let’s talk about the different areas, different things that we can do to finance a home and get somebody into home ownership. If you’re not comfortable with doing this yourself, let’s interview a lender friend of yours, sit down at a table and just say, “Hey, tell me more about this.” They’d love to be on camera.

Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day in your mailbox tomorrow. Bye-bye.
