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.

Home Office

August 23, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is “Home Office Needs.” So many people in the workforce these days work from home. I’m in my home office right now. But as we’re touring new construction homes or we’re touring existing homes, let’s talk about the best things that people need in their home office. Now, is it a standing desk, like I have? Is it a seated desk? Is it built-in bookcases? Is it the best internet wired into the home? Is it having a really strong internet router? What is the best thing for you to have in your home for working from home?

So let’s ask questions too, let’s not presume. Let’s ask people who work from home, you know, this can be a great poll question on Facebook. What is it you want? And what is it you look for in a home office? What would be the best thing for you? Is it printing capabilities? Is it pre-wired? Is it storage? What is it that would make an amazing home office for you? Being right next to the UPS Store would be great for me but unfortunately not. Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow.

Grocery Stores

August 22, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And today’s realty idea of the day is “Grocery Stores.” So there’s been a lot of talk in some urban parts of Dallas, and other cities I’m sure, there are what they call food deserts. There are no grocery stores within five miles of the homes that are built there. Maybe the area is economically depressed, for whatever reason all the grocery stores have flown from that part of the city. Excuse me, so we can talk about one, your favorite place that’s around you to go grocery shop. You can talk about the higher end grocery stores if you want to go to a Whole Foods, or something like that. You can also talk about areas where there’s maybe a mom and pop grocery store. Here there’s a lot of ethnic grocery stores. There’s a there’s a huge Korean market and Chinese market and Indian markets. There are sublets of different cultural grocery stores around here too. So talk about grocery stores, talk about how grocery stores build a community. Talk about how communities are served by having food and groceries nearby. Talk to you tomorrow. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted here.

Window Replacement

August 21, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is “Window replacements.” So if you own an older home, you may have single pane windows, you may have some double pane windows that are fogged. Unless you have a brand new home you don’t have the latest state-of-the-art low E amazing windows. So window replacement is expensive. I will admit that. So go out and go to the Home and Garden Show or go interview some window replacement companies and find out what the trends are, whether your area is having any discounts, whether there’s anything about your area that is particular to windows.

Like out here we have excessive heat, does that help void the windows faster than excessive cold? Don’t know. That’s a good question to ask. So right now I know there’s double pane windows. I’ve heard there’s triple pane windows out there as well. Obviously, you have the low E energy efficient windows, go out and find out more about windows post about it and become a resource for your sphere of influence. Talk to you tomorrow. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted here. Bye-bye.

Foundation Repairs

August 20, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is “Foundation Repairs.” So if you live in a pier and beam house or a slab foundation house, I honestly I don’t know if you have this problem with houses with basements, but in the two that I just mentioned you’re going to have issues with foundation over time especially in Texas. We are built on a clay soil and that soil will shift depending on how much moisture is kept in the soil and, you know, how well the builder did building the foundation. So we want to talk about foundation repairs, structural engineers, having a structural engineer report run before you buy home and talking about foundation repair companies and the pitfalls people can run into with those. So you want to have a foundation company that has a lifetime transferable warranty. You wanna know the terms of that transfer. Some of them say, “If you don’t transfer it in 30 days after selling the house, the warranty is void” So let’s talk about foundation repairs, the best companies out there. Bob McCranie. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow.

Dog Days of Summer

August 18, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie. And your realty idea of the day is the “Dog Days of Summer “So this can go many directions. Let’s talk about one, our pets being out in the heat, maybe we can talk about pet rescue, maybe we can use dog days of summer in some sort of way to benefit our pets and in the pet charity so we love. We can also talk about the actual origin of the word, origin phrase “Dog Days of Summer” is apparently when the constellation Sirius comes up in the sky, which is a dog. So they call it the “Dog Days of Summer” because that’s when the constellation appear.

It’s also associated with the hottest, meanest, grumpiest time of summer. So this will be middle of August and it will be hot. So let’s talk about one, keeping people cool, being sure their air conditioner is still working. We talked about that before. Let’s go out and talk about our pets being cool. Let’s use the “Dog Days of Summer” anyway we want to and make big posts about it. Take care. Bye-bye.

Coke vs Pepsi

August 17, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey everyone! It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your Realty Idea of the Day is to start a fight. And the fight’s going to be: Do you like Coke, or do you like Pepsi? Now clearly I’m a Coca Cola person. I think it shows. I have class and good taste. So, I think they should change the name of the other product to “Is Pepsi Okay?” Because, when I walk in and order a Coke, the worst thing you can say to me is “Is Pepsi Okay?” Because, Pepsi is never okay. But what you’ll find, is that people have strong opinions about this. And this is a velcro post. You want to post this. You want to have a poll on Facebook. You want to post pictures of this on Instagram and maybe on Pinterest or whatever, just have a question: “Is it Pepsi, or is it Coke for you?” And then when people comment back and forth, be involved in their comments. Post back and forth about what they say. That creates the connection so that later when you post about your open house, they are going to see that. So, today it’s Coke versus Pepsi. And you know what? Coke is better. I’m just going to say it. Fight me. I dare you. Let’s comment. Take care. Bye bye.

Best Parks

August 16, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie. And your realty idea of the day is “Best Parks.” So every city, at least in Dallas, I mean all the suburbs and the city of Dallas have parks. I mean, which ones are the best? And which ones are the best for what? So we have some parks have a good for hiking and biking. We have some parks that are good for kids. We have some water parks that are kinda like splash parks. Splash parks are the new way of doing a pool, I guess. So which ones are out there for you?

We also have nature preserves, we have hiking trails, we have all sorts of things in our parks and recs. Now the other thing you might do is if you’re in your city you want you might go interview the person who’s in charge of the parks department for your city. Talk about what their future expansion plans are, maybe where are they going to put the next kid’s park? What equipment are they seeing that they’re gonna phase in or phase out? What is it that they’re doing in the future with their pools? Parks are an important part of every city. Let’s talk about them and tell people where the best ones are. 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.
