Exterior Paint!
Hey, everybody. It’s Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and let’s talk about exterior paint.
So your realty idea of the day is to talk about exterior paint. What are the popular colors? And if you don’t know, go down to your local Lowe’s or your Home Depot or Sherwin Williams or wherever, and ask the people who mix the paint, “Hey, what are you mixing the most of these days?” If somebody lives in a nature way or a historic home community, they may have limited color choices. If they don’t, then they can paint their house purple or pink or bright green or any other thing they want to, which is great because they’re expressive and that’s wonderful. But all the neighbors around you are like, “Really? Why are you doing that?”
So let’s talk about home exterior colors and let’s talk about the colors that sell. So obviously, a more neutral-colored home is gonna sell faster than one that’s chartreuse or bright blue. So let’s talk to our sphere about exterior paint, maybe even post a couple of pictures of some traditionally painted houses and some brightly-colored houses, see which one everybody picks.
Anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty, this would be a great…oh, my gosh. That would be a great picture post. Take care. Ask your sphere what they want in their exterior paint. There’ll be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.
New Places To Eat
Hey, everybody. Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and my mind is always on food. So today’s “Realty Idea of the Day” is new places to eat in town. I know the City of Carrollton where I live, they publish a list of new restaurants that have just gotten a new city permit. So if there is 10 or 20 or 2 new restaurants in town, let’s talk about them. Let’s profile them, let’s talk about them through our sphere. Let’s find their Facebook page and their Instagram and chat them up and tag them in posts.
Here’s what I like to do. I like to give people a really good review. If the place is awful, I’ll intend just not to post about it. But the place is amazing, I’m gonna say something. And if it’s in the middle, I’ll say something nice. So if people wanna post nasty stuff, there’s Yelp for that but I would prefer to have, at least in my blog about my city, nothing but positivity there.
So anyway, Bob McCranie, let’s go find the new places for food and let’s go eat because I’m hungry. Anyway, go find the new places, talk about it on your sphere, and ask people where they like to go and eat in your town. Take care. There’ll be another “Realty Idea of the Day” posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.
Historic Parts of Town
Hey, everybody. It’s, Bob McCranie, with Texas Pride Realty. And your realty idea of the day is historic places in your town. So, every town has a history, let’s find out what ours is. Let’s talk about the first neighborhoods, the first settlers. I bet your street names, you may not know this, are named after the first settlers in your town. Now, I live in Texas, so there’s a lot of Texas history built into our cities. Some cities have towns…I’m sorry, have roads that are named from this destination to this destination road, which I’m like, “Just use some imagination, let’s have some better names here.”
So, find out the history of your town, talk about the historical districts, where the oldest homes are. Maybe the homes in those districts are zones so that they can only be painted or styled in a certain way. So talk about the history of your town, teach people what it’s like to live in your area. Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty, there will be another realty idea of the day posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.
For Sale By Odor
Okay, everybody, Bob McCranie with Texas Pride Realty, and today’s idea, wow what a stinker ha.
Today’s “Realty Idea of the Day” is for sale by odor. Let’s talk about when you’re selling a home and it smells really bad, how we counsel our sellers to remedy that. Let’s talk about how carpets and any fabrics in the home hold the smoke smell. Let’s talk about how carpets and flooring hold pet odors from, you know, pet urine and problems that the pets have had in the house.
Let’s talk about when they change their carpets and their flooring, that they need to seal the subfloor with a paint or something to keep the odors that have gone into the concrete or the wood sealed away. Let’s talk about the fact that people go, as the commercials say, they go nose-blind. They don’t smell it. They don’t think their house smells like an ashtray. They don’t think their house smells like 15 cats.
We have to be honest with people and talk about for sale by owner houses, and how that’s just not going to happen and it’s not going to be really good for them.
So anyway, Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. Please don’t put like 17 Glad things on the wall and try to cover it up because we just see all the air fresheners, and we know better, and we can still smell it.
For sale by owner. Bob McCranie, Texas Pride Realty. There will be another “Realty Idea of the Day” posted tomorrow. Bye-bye.
