Never Too Late To Sell

September 30, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is, is it too late to sell? Oh, my gosh. We’re at the end of September? Did I miss the whole thing? So, I don’t think it’s too late to sell personally, ever. I mean, during the holiday months, there are still people out there buying and selling a home. Lots of people generally go off the market for the holidays because they just don’t wanna be bothered, which means the houses that do stay on the market have a better percentage chance of being sold. And somebody is always coming down to see grandma at the holidays and deciding to move.

So, I don’t think it’s ever too late to try to sell your house. But your market may have a different philosophy. What do you feel? So go out there on social media today and talk about, “Hey. Yeah, the several months are gone. But we still have September, October…I’m sorry, October, November, December to get this done. Call me today.” Anyway, go out and make this post. Tag me in it. I’d love to see what you’re doing. And let’s see if we can get some of these last minute sales through the system. Bye-bye.

Pool’s Closed

September 29, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is getting your pool ready for the winter.

So, I love my pool. I’m out in it not nearly enough during the summer months and the spring months and anytime the pool heater’s working. But during the winter you need to know how to maintain it. Now, some people cover their pools. I personally don’t because I found I had a floating cover and the leaves and all the problems got under the cover I didn’t notice. So I don’t cover my pool because I want to be able to visually see under the pool cover and know what’s going on. But some people in different parts of the country have different ideas. Now, an above ground pool has to be treated differently.

So go out there and maybe interview a pool person and put that on your social media, talk about how people with pools need to protect their pools through the winter months, and that way also people who are thinking about getting a house with a pool could contact you to buy their home.

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

Shrubs & Trees

September 28, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and your realty idea of the day is shrubs and trees. So, it’s going into the colder season, and I know in Texas, this is the time that people really prune back their Crape Myrtles almost too much, and they consider pruning back the trees. I would talk to an arborist in your area since there are so many zones in the country, you know, cold, warm zones… I don’t know planting that well, but I would talk to an arborist, and I’d go online to find some ideas for what you need to be doing to your trees and your shrubs so that they survive the winter.

Now I know in some parts of the country, you have to wrap them in burlap and try to shelter certain plants during the cold season. Now is the time to be prepared for that, as opposed to, “Oh my God, we’re having a cold snap tomorrow. We’re not ready.” It’s also time to cover your faucets if you’re in the colder areas. Get your faucet covers ready because when we have that first cold snap, you don’t want to be running out there pulling the hoses off. So, shrubs and trees, and faucets. Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There will be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

State Fair of Texas

September 24, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and a few weeks ago, we talked about the State Fair of Texas was coming. If I timed this right, today should be the first day of the first week of the State Fair of Texas.

Now, if you have…if you’re not in Texas, well I feel sorry for you. But if you are in Texas, you need to make your way to the Texas State Fair. It is a huge place with lots of different games, lots of different rides, tons of food, and my favorite part of the fair is the car show. I like to go look at all the new cars and see what’s there. So take a ton of pictures at your fair, post them. A few weeks ago, we were trying to get people ready and be interested in the fair, it’s here now. So let’s go to it. Let’s take some pictures and post and interview some of the people at the fair. There’s so much arts and crafts, there’s livestock which I’m not so much on. But, there’s so many different aspects you can have. You could literally get 20 or 30 posts out of the State Fair of Texas or whatever city or state you live in.

Talk to you soon. Post them, tag me in them. I want to see them. Take care. Bye-bye.

New Diners

August 25, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And our realty idea of the day is one I like to come back to from time to time. New diners, new restaurants, new places to go. There’s always a new restaurant opening up. There’s always a restaurant that either didn’t make it or some new concept coming to town. So always go out and be one of the first people to go try it. Read the paper, you know, maybe like city…city I live in they publish. Who just got the new building permits so I know few weeks in advance who’s about to have their grand opening. Go be one of the first people there, talk about it, blog about it, take pictures and if you’re a manager make a video. Talk about the food. Hopefully say something nice hopefully it’s a good place to eat. And be the person to say,” You know what? This place is really great you should go try it” Talk about new diners, talk about new restaurants. Will…will have lots of great food and you’ll have a great time blogging about it. Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow. Go eat somewhere new. Bye.

Run Run Run

August 24, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is “Run, Run, Run.”

Okay. So I have a friend, when he comes to town, after he raids my liquor cabinet, the second thing he likes to go do is run our nature trails. We have an extensive, miles and miles and miles of nature trails around here. And he loves to go do that. I…if you ever met me in person, you know, I’m not a runner. I’m not going to go out and do this. But health and fitness are a huge part of our community. A few sessions ago, we talked about doing parks and recreation. Now, where’s a good place for running? And where are there local running marathons or triathlons or just, you know, charity runs?

Running is a big subculture in our area. So let’s talk about that. How do people protect themselves? How do people…you know, what’s the best thing to wear, reflective wear, running in the evening or the morning. How do you make yourself visible to cars in the area? Where’s the safest trails to be on so that you’re not out in the middle of things? Run, run, run. Find out everything you can about running in your area. And post about it.

Bob McCranie. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

Family Reunions

August 16, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everybody, it’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and your Realty Idea of the Day is family reunions. We all love nostalgia. So, there’s two or three ways you can take this assignment. You can do, actually, “Hey, we’re having a family reunion. Where’s a good place to have one?” Two, you can go back through some old photographs and find Aunt Gertrude or whoever it is, Uncle Bill, and post some pictures of how people looked in the ’70s, pictures of the cars, pictures of the hairstyles. You know, the women had the big hair. The men had the buzz cuts or the long hair, the hippie, you know, whatever. Post something about nostalgia. Post something about family and reunion and bringing people back together. Invite people to post their memories of their family reunions and make it a collaborative thing.

So, today’s assignment is family reunions. Go out and talk about either having one soon or maybe talk about the ones you’ve been to in the past and show some pictures. Anyway, there’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Take care. Bye-bye.

Up & Coming Neighborhoods

August 11, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey everyone, it’s Bob McCranie and your Realty Idea of the Day is “Up and Coming Areas in your Town.” So, I live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. And one of the new up and coming areas is off of a highway called 380. So it’s way out of town. But it’s where all the new construction is going, because that’s where the land is available. Where are the up and coming areas of your town? Now in your area it may also be a development that has gone through some transition. Maybe there is a part of town that, like we have parts of Oak Cliff, where Oak Cliff is always in transition. Because, parts of it were built in the ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s, and things churn. People go buy them, they renovate. Or they tear down and they build new. So, East Dallas is kind of the same way. What is it in your area? Where are the up and coming trendy areas? Like I said, they can be trendy, or they can be where it’s kind of a niche community. It’s kind of a place where avant garde people are living. Where is the up and coming area in your town? Post it on your social. Bye.
