Realty Ideas Per Day - real estate

State Fair

September 4, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone, it’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your realty idea of the day is the State Fair is coming up. So, if you’re not from Texas, in Texan Dallas, we have the State Fair. It comes in the middle of September, but now is the time to be planning what week you wanna go, how to get your discount tickets. There’s always fried foods and different things with the fair, different contests. So talk about what was your favorite fried food from last year. Like, they do fried Oreos, and fried hotdogs, and fried butter. Butter, why? I don’t know.

Anyway so it’s always a fun time and start talking about it now. Maybe you can plan an event with your sphere to go to the State Fair together, and that would be really cool. It’d be an outing. So, I’m gonna steal that idea. That’s a great idea.

So, what if you talked about on your social media about the State Fair? Maybe post some pictures from before that you’ve gone, and talk about going again today or this month as a group.

Flu Shots?

September 4, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone, it’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your realty idea of the day is flu shots. So, it’s autumn and it’s the time that flu shots are being given out. There are so many locations giving them, but this is a good time to reach out to your sphere. One, mention all the locations where the flu shots are being given and, two, ask people, do they get them. There are some people who are impacted by having a lowered immunity. There are some people who don’t believe in flu shots or immunizations. I wouldn’t necessarily wanna be the subject matter expert, but I would certainly start the dialogue and see what people think.

So, flu shots, maybe have a list of where they can go. Maybe you have a little grouping and you say, “You know what? Let’s go get our flu shots together and that way we’ll be there for each other.” Have a great lunch afterward and just get to hang out. This will be a great way to meet up with your sphere.

Anyway, this is Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. Go get your flu shot. I get mine every year. So, anyway post where you can get ’em, maybe have a group meeting about it or group session, and then go out and have a nice lunch afterward.

Recycling

August 31, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey everyone! It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is “Recycling in Your Area.” So, recycling is something that is huge. And it needs to be. And it is an industry unto itself. But, we need to know how recycling works in our area, what products are actually recyclable. Different cities, at least in Dallas-Fort Worth, different cities have different styles or different things that they do recycle. Some will take one through six. Some will take only one through four but not… You know. They have ideas, they have rules about what they will and won’t take. So, one thing that you do would be to talk about where you could recycle things that may be unusual. Like prescription drugs. There are places that you can take prescription drugs. Don’t flush them down the toilet. They get in the water system. Take prescriptions drugs back to this, you know, one location. They will take care of them. Paint. Paint is another thing you can’t just throw away. You have to recycle it. It has to be recycled in a certain way. So, you need to find out where that would go. Let’s talk about recycling in your area today. Bob McCranie. There will be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.

Plantings for the Fall

August 30, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

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

So now is the time to be considering what you need to put in the ground for your fall harvest. Obviously, we’re gonna be having our pumpkins and everything like that. There’ll be most posts about that coming up. But what is it that we need to put in the ground now so that it’ll be ready for winter or will come back up in the spring?

So if you live in a colder zone, I know there are planting protocols you need to do to have things in the ground now for spring flowers. I know that you can put some bulbs in the ground now so they’ll be ready for the spring.

I’m not a gardener. I will admit this. But there are organic gardening sites for each zone of the country, each area of the country, each temperature zone that you can go out and reference and talk to people about what they could do to their yard to be ready for next spring. Now’s the time to get the fall plantings in.

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

Location Location Location

August 28, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and our Realty Idea of the Day is location, location, location. I just did times three, but you get my point.

So what’s the most important part of real estate? Well, the old adage being location, location, location. Obviously, there’s price point and style and other elements. But let’s talk about… Earlier, we had a post about what were the up and coming areas. Maybe we can talk about where the areas are that are most effective for commuting. Maybe there are areas that are most effective for the trendy social life. Maybe there are some areas that are best for schools. We can pick different areas in our city and talk about why each of them has the specific location for a different sort of buyer.

So profile the neighborhoods, profile why this neighborhood might be best for a certain type of buyer. Never describe the person, always describe the neighborhood that should buy there so we don’t get in equal housing problems.

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

Pet Adoptions!

August 28, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and our Realty Idea of the Day is pet adoptions.

So there are two or three ways we can take this. One, we can feature the website of a local pet shelter and feature some of the animals who really desperately need a home. We can actually go to those shelters and maybe make a video of us holding each of the animals and how much this dog is so cute and this kitty is so cute, whatever. Or we can go and host a pet adoption at our place of business. I know a couple of brokerages around me here, they have pet adoption days at their brokerage on Saturdays.

Come out, adopt a pet, spend some time… Do you have a pet-friendly office? Do you need a cat for your office? Do you need whatever? Maybe there’s somebody who would help with adoptions.

The other thing you could do is ask the different adoption facilities, do they need food, do they need donations, do they need people to just come, you know, work with the pets and be there.

Anyway, Bob McCranie, pet adoption, super important in your area. Take care. Bye-bye.
