Ask A REALTOR
Hey, everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and my realty idea of the day is ask a realtor. So what if we just posted on social media, “I’m a real estate agent. Ask me any question.” Let’s just see what comes back. I think that’d be a great way to get a dialogue started. People may not know that they even have a question about an issue in real estate until you open the door and ask them.
So my realty idea of the day is let’s just put it out there, “I’m a realtor. Ask me a question.” Let’s see what comes back and I would post this across several of my social media. I would do at least Facebook, Twitter, and possibly Instagram on this and see what comes back. Maybe I don’t think this would be good for Pinterest. But just try it and see what comes back to you. And then tag me in the post. I wanna see what your answers are and how much traction you get on this. Ask a realtor day. Let’s come up with any questions they want and let’s come up with the answers to their questions, and be their real estate professional. Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow.
State Fair of Texas
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.
HOA’s
Hey, everybody. It’s Bob McCranie, with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is HOA’s why or why not?
So a lot of homes, especially new home construction in Dallas, has an HOA, you know, with it. So people are wondering how do I buy a home anymore without an HOA? Well, you have to by an older community. You have to go buy a home built probably before the 1990s to get in a community that does not have an HOA. If you’re living in an apartment or a townhome community you wanna have an HOA, because they’re the ones who maintain the common element. They maintain the roofs, the wall space, the structure, the foundation, things like that. So… And plumbing, windows, things of that nature.
Every HOA is different, there is no standard in Texas for what an HOA has to have, to my knowledge. Every HOA I’ve run into has a different set of rules and a different set of reasons. So talk to your client about what they want in an HOA, or do they wanna live outside of an HOA community. If you live outside of an HOA community you could end up with a purple house next to you or a house that has, you know, Christmas lights up in August. Like across the street from my house. Anyway. But that can happen. If you’re in an HOA community they’ll help take care of that. But you also have to pay fees and you have to deal with the nosy neighbors. So talk about the HOA’s in your area, maybe talk about what they do and what’s best for your clients. Talk about it on social media and maybe ask people on your social media what they think about HOA’s. Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There’ll be another realtor idea of the day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.
Halloween Decor
Hey everyone, It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty. And your Realty Idea of the Day is Halloween stuff.
So the other day I posted about Christmas decor. Today we’re going to talk about Halloween decor. And I know Halloween comes before Christmas, but one is more important than the other, but actually, they’re both really important. Halloween is an amazingly fun holiday if you make it such. All the stores will have out all the yard art, all the stuff that you can do, the projections on your house, the different swirly patterns and scary stuff too. So one, start thinking about where the best neighborhoods are to see decorations. Two, go to the store, find those decorations, show people where they are in your area so they can go get them. Three, maybe do a video at night going around to the houses in your neighborhood and maybe post this on next door. Post this on Facebook if you have a community page, go around and tell people about the great houses and the great decor in your neighborhood and where to find it. Be the social media leader in your neighborhood.
