Realty Ideas Per Day

Candy Corn!

October 24, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

This is Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty and your Realty Idea of the Day is candy corn. Now, I never realized what a national crisis would ensue when I let people know that I love candy corn because apparently, some people just can’t stand it. Candy corn is amazing, I love it but… So put it out to your group and your sphere on Facebook or on whatever social media you want to. Do you like candy corn, or do you hate it? You will find people are one way or the other, they’re not both. So get in the middle of that. It’s kinda like the Coke and Pepsi challenge. Some people love Coke, some people love…very few people love Pepsi, let’s be honest. So let’s talk about candy corn. Let’s talk about what candy during the Halloween holiday can you just not go without, every Halloween you gotta have it. So anyway, candy, candy corn, Halloween. Let’s talk about that, let’s have some Facebook polls. And we’ll see what we want for our trick or treat bags this year. Take care. Bye-bye.

Spooky vs Fun

October 24, 2018 · by Bob McCranie

Hey everyone. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and if I timed this right, today’s the first day of October.

So the question I have for you today and you can ask your sphere of influences, do you do scary Halloween spooky? Or do you do fun Halloween? I like to do fun Halloween, I don’t like to be scared. So I don’t get all the scary movies that come out during the season and I don’t get into the vampires and werewolves, but I love the fun of Halloween. So this is something you can ask your sphere and you can post this as a poll on Facebook because Facebook loves polls now. If you’re not doing polls, you need to be doing polls. Find a picture of a vampire, a picture of something fun, and just ask people which version of Halloween they prefer. So this is going to be a great…you’ve got three great months here with three national holidays between, you know, the Christmas season, Thanksgiving season, Halloween season, harvest, whatever you want to call it, you’ve got ample opportunity. Get in front of people. Scary spooky or fun Halloween, which do you prefer?

There’ll be another Realty Idea of the Day posted tomorrow.

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.

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.
