OH WHAT A WEEKEND AND NIGHT!!!!

OH WHAT A WEEKEND AND A MONDAY NIGHT its been....

In my last post I was whining how I needed my phone to ring.. Guess I should of started whinning sooner..Friday I hit the ground running. I had my first email at 915 from trulia. It was a lead about a condo I had. I called the lady and she was amazed I called so quick. She actually was still on Zillow looking. They wanted to come down from Atlanta Sunday morning and look for a condo. I asked if they thought about getting pre approved and she responded that we had a preapproval letter from our bank for this amount. I told her she didnt need to look on Truilia anymore, Give me your criteria and Ill have you in 5 minutes an email with all that meet it. I told her in  the time frame she gave me pick out the beast 7-10 and we could see them in that time.


Then I got an call from a lady I have been emailing with about selling here property since around November. She was gonna try an FSBO first well she was ready to list this 500K property with me..I set an appointment up at her convenience which is 2PM today.



The about noon my phone rang off a 1st time buyers add I ran. He was interested in this 80K townhouse I had listed  was about 25 years old had a job.. a 650 beacon.. I asked him when it was good to see it he said Sunday I made it late afternoon so I could make sure I finished with the other folks.

Then the young couple I was working with called me they had 7 more properties they wanted to see Saturday if I was available around 3pm.

 Boy was I just Giddy!!!!!


Well all Friday afternoon I was busy scheduling appointment. Again Sat morning I was finishing setting the condo appointments she wanted to see. The Sat afternoon we went house looking..well after about showing this couple now 40 or 50 homes over the months and yes we had made a few offers that we got beat out on..Well I decided to take them back to a house that they had seen before that was second on their list once before. We got their just before dark and walked it.. it had everything the wanted...a extra garage for his photography studio. a huge yard. a screen in porch...tons of storage space...but she didnt like the kitchen a lot...they talked for a while we diced to make an offer and I was on the phone with the listing agent till 830 pm and we reached a deal....Boy what a day.. I was whupped...went home and crashed with my poor puppy.

Got up Sunday Morning met my couple from Atlanta. about the 4th thing we looked at they said WOW!!!!
we looked at the rest all the time they are talking about this unit...So I say would you like to make an offer on it. It happened to be a foreclosure and was actually priced right....

The next statement made me laugh inside..lol....This unit was on the 13th floor I think.. He says well the 10th floor is my height limit. after that I dont feel comfy.....They choose these they walked on the deck and had laughed about it.. but we had only looked at 2 units under the 10th.. He said find this between the 4th and 10th and we would be interested... Well they went home I searched the MLS and found one on the second and this one...they want me to keep looking for them....but he I got a new customer...

Then I met the young Kid that afternoon looked at the townhouse he loved it. I sent him to a banker I use for 1st timers she is great with them.. Hope to hear back from him today...

Monday day was a decent day at the office got a bunch done....Met a friend around 430 we sat around chatting went for dinner  and then she wanted to head over to a friends... and then the excitement began.....





what a night...I went with a friend to a friends house we knock on the door this man completly nude man answers the door...and I dont mean just some man a 91 year old man...lol...he was a practicing nudist and owned the place her friends lived. we all sat around for hours talking the whole time he was fondling his equipment...he was telling how he had sex several times a day with several woman...lol.. a 91 year old man....he should us a experimental drug the VA has him on....

and the roomies vouched for this..

But you know what astounded me the most.. we actually talked to this man for almost 3 hours about religion.. government... the economy..real estate....he had been a Dr a minister and on and on thru his life....his knowledge was vast but he never missed a beat.. I think at 50 my mind is worst then his....he was 91!! and had a mind of a 30 yo.

and know what he kept telling us it was from.....yes sex...said everytime you empty you sack and produce more you rebuild testerone and so he rebuild testerone 4 or 5 times a day. He had a full head a gray hair.. his skin was saggy...but his mind.......said he was immortal and was not gonna die probably before me.....he says that the VA doctors are studing him...lol......

OH WHAT A NIGHT.....

SHORT SALES BETTER DO THEM NOW OR PAY 10'S OF THOUSANDS TO THE IRS

SHORT SALE BETTER DO IT NOW.  Uncle Sam has decided that you only have till December 31, 2012 for tax relief on your short sales. So PANAMA CITY FLORIDA and everywhere else in the good ole USA if you are under water on your home as most are and you want to get out of it and safe 10's of thousands you better get it on the market now.....Ypu know banks 2-6 months to process a SHORT SALE so if you dont have it under contract by June you maybe #$%^ out of luck.

I just sold a condo for a client that he lost $300,000 on it. That will be the 1099 he gets from the IRS being in the 28% bracket if it would of sold next year he would of had to pay $84000 to the IRS on that sale....DO YOU HAVE 1 20, 50, 100,000  TO HAND OVER?????

YOU BETTER CALL ME NOW AND GET STARTED SELLING THAT PROPERTY!!!!!!!!!

1 minute to late in Real Estate in Panama City Florida

1 Minute to late..Seems that is the way its been in Panama City Real Estate lately. I was out showing this couple property till 8 pm last night. We have made offers on 3 houses already, and all three as soon as I get contracts in to them they say we just got an approved offer on it. Yet they still sit in the MLS as active for days. The first one they saw yesterday we ended up going back this morning and looking at it a second time.  They wanted to make an offer on it. They said you sure its still available. I said well its been on the market for 379 days  and I looked on my I Phone and checked the MLS and it said it was. So we went to the office and did an offer I emailed it to the agent and my phone rings. LOL  GUESS WHAT...yes she says I'm sorry Joel we got an offer early this morning and the bank signed off on it. Now this was at 9:37.

I don't know if its me or them..One of us is jinxed..lol... THAT WAS HOW THE DAY STARTED.


I have this short sale I have been working on since 1 Nov. It is with Hancock bank a newer Bank in our area. The FDIC closed one of the big local banks here and brought Hancock in from LA to take it over. Well the original loan is from Peoples Bank the old bank. They said they do not work the short sales from Peoples but out source them to this company...but they couldnt give me a phone number or contact for this company.. I started with bthe local branches and ended up at the main branch in LA and finally got a contact number right at Thanksgiving. They called and said I had to get a form signed of course from the owner saying they could talk with me. I got that to them the next day. I called and had to send the letter 4 times before they said they got it.. Finally on Dec 8th I got an email with a list of what they needed. I got it together and sent it to them on the 10th. I have been calling everyday to make sure they have it. The switchboard wont let you talk to the person working on it all they say is Its being processed and not complete yet..

Well today I got kinda shitty and finally got to a supervisor. He swore he would find out whats going on and get right back to me. That was at about 1030 this morning..Finally around three I called back and kinda got more uppity. At 430 finally a Karen calls me and says "we cant process your file yet we are missing a few papers". So I asked what she needed as I number each page of my file and I know I sent them everything on the list. lol she says we need the last 2 months bank statements I said you have them. she said no they are for Sept Oct and I said yes you have been working this since Nov1. she says no Im working it now and I have to have Nov and Decembers also I need a New YTD P & L for 2012 now.. lol we are 4 days into the year....GRRRRR oh and it has to be notorized by a accountant..lol......

NICE MORNING I'D SAY...this is what happens in Real estate lots of ups and downs....

Now for the afternoon...... It actually was pretty good. I got a listing appointment for Friday at 2 and I got a call From a guy in VA that wants some commercial property and is gonna make an offer he says on something. I sent him some blank contracts....woooo them My guy I have been working on a MILLION DOLLAR PENTHOUSE CONDO ON THE BEACH called and touched base with me saying he ways just days away from making an offer. He met with his account and should do something before the middle of next week......Man that made the whole day awesome!!!!!!

Left work about 4 took a bottle of wine over to a friends work had a beer with her came home to a mess..lol.. dog had peed all over his room...I tried to act mad because I don't want him to go it often..but he was alone since 730 this morning to about 6 I couldnt hold it that long..lol......


I am so glad at least there is action..seems real estate here is starting to pick up again....I need 4 mil this year in sales somehow!!!!!!!!

New Year In Panama City Beach Florida 201b

New year in Panama City Beach Florida 2012. Well one of my New Years resolutions was to do my blogging this year. 2011 was probably my best year in at least the last 5. My son won the 2011 NCAA college baseball Div 2 World Series, The go signed by the Atlanta Braves in the Summer. He had a good Professional start but then kinda blew up. The second half of the season he showed back up again.  The he got engaged..BOY they grow up fast and he is only 21. My youngest Jake still is out in Limbo. At 20 he doesn't quite know what he wants to do in life yet. He lets his step father plan everything for him. They have changed majors now 3 times in 3 years. I wish my ex and her husband would just let him alone and let him either flop or make it out on his own. He has no mind of his own and just follows their lead even though it does not make him happy. 


Professionally I almost hit 3 million in sales!!!! I had 25 sides I closed!!! I got very close to my goal which was to double 2010. For 2012 I want 4.5 million in sales and close 40 sides. I know I have to put more into Real Estate I work it hard when I work it but I still don't do all I need to. A lot of it is my funding. I really don't have what I need to do all the prospecting I want. I am hoping to have a great 1st quarter so I can set the rest of the year up.


Personally I hope to find someone that can put up with me that I want to be around. I always start with someone and I know going in its not the right person.. but in the last 20 years I have not really put my self out there so I am really trying to take more chance and not prejudge so much. Lately it hasn't worked but at least this year I has a few relationships versus just just having fun and not trying to commit to anything.




Well this is the 1st new blog of the year on the first.. hopefully I can do it everyday.. Im on the computer enough if Id just do the things I need to..lol.....


Always remember this is no future in the past. Always look ahead

WORSE MORNING AS A REALTOR IN PANAMA CITY FLORIDA HOME SALES

Boy was working for 10 Minutes and got cussed out so bad.. and not even my customer did it. 

   Lets start from the begiining. I have the buyer on a short sale. They home has a renter in it. She has lived there for 3 years. Her husband died in this house about a year ago. Man is she so angry. 

   We got the approval on the 7th of Dec and they gave us till the 22nd to close.. 15 WHOLE days...So I am trying to get it all done. The renter is pissed because she has been trying to buy the house and her Realtor wasn't able to ge her financed.. Well I tried to schedule the appraiser she states she works and no one can come into the house till she gets home after 5pm when its dark. She has the gates to the yard padlocked...

   With the listing agents permission I take the hinges off the gate to get the appraiser in the yard out least to do most of it. He will have to go back before we close to view the inside. I am tring to get the home inspection done.. same thing..By the way she has 3 dogs..inside dogs at least.. Finally I get the listing agent to get me an appointment for 8am this morning for the home inspector. I get there about 5 mins early and a guy pulls up with a trailer and I assume its the home inspector.  so I walk over to him this lady comes running out the house WTF am I doing on HER property. That is a friend of mind to help me move since your evicting me.. She goes on the rampage scream and hollering at me. I walk away and sit back in my Car not saying anything. Next I get a call from the listing agent. Its 8:07 where is your inspector he is late. She has to leave and no one can get in the house if shes not there. I ask now you know a home inspection takes 3 hours she knew she had to be here til 11 or so because we cant stay in there alone right? Yes your right she says.. 

   Fianally the home inspector shows up late.. She is in the Garage loading things up and I walk up behind him and she is yelling at screaming at him hes late at her job she has to be punctual.. and all of a sudden she looks up at me and says what are you doing here I told you to get MY property. I remember you you were rude to be when I was talking to your people when you view ed the house. I said you dont need to scream at me. and WOWWWWW she just goes off. jumps in my face f this f that.. get the FFF of my property you don't need to be here with the inspector get the F out of here...all the way t my car... dang.....
   Two minutes later the inspector comes out to the car says I get her calmed down you know her husdand dieed here.. and so on and son on.. He said I got it from here Ill call you when Im done and let you know  how it is.....


God I have never been treated like this.......



   OMG and I thought it was over...lol...My home inspector just called me.. by time I got home made a few calls maybe 45 mins.. Said he was leaving there did the best he could do...Told me that he turned on the dishwasher for a cycle she turned it off he turned it back on  she turned it back off saying it was her water and he was not wasting any of it...he tried to turn the stove on same thing.. said she almost burnt herself on it..lol...he went to the bathroom to try and check the tub and she unscrewed the Shower head saying this was hers and she was taking down anything she ever put up in the 3 years she lived there....ughhhhhhh... will this day end???/


Next I have to go back Wed and do a walk thru I texted the listing agent and told her she could not be there when I did....

SINKING SHIP

Sometimes real estate makes you think your on a sinking ship....So many things can go wrong with a transaction and you usually don't have control over any of it..grrrrrr.......


I have two deals that were suppose to be closed already....first one is just a $8000 piece of land...Its a cash sale. I have the buyers....after they accepted the offer we were told that it had to be signed off by the court..as it was the daughter selling it and mom is in a home... now after 3 1/2 weeks I am told the brother has to sign off on it.. and that after that they have to get something from another county....and it could be middle of October before we close now... My people have a doublewide mobile home they bought to put on here and its just sitting there.. they live in Tallahasse work her and are driving back and forth everyday till we can get this done....first they were told 10 days then end of the month now maybe 3 more weeks.. grrrrrrrr.....

Next I have a family who was transferred here to Tyndall AFB. we made an offer middle of Aug.. they accepted..its a Va loan...the wife moved her with the kids so they would not have to move once school started and rented a mobile home...she hates it and wants  to move into her home..10 days ago the house flunked the VA inspection...5 ltiile things needed to be done. We were told that they would be done by last wed...so Thurday I called the listing agent...she said she hadnt got someone to do them yet it would be the weekend before they could get to it and it would be finished... monday the VA inspectors go back out... not 1 thing has been done.. not one!!!! and no call form the listing agent nothing... They charge $100 for everytime they have to go out.. so now we paid extra for nothing and will have to pay again... I wrote her and called her no return calls or emails.. so I get all my tools together along with the report and head 30 miles to this house to do it myself....when I get there load and behold two young kids are there doing the work.. now the realtor knows the work has to be done by a licensed contractor....and we have to have an invoice to prove the work has been done.. once again I call her.. ring.. ring.. voicemail... I leave a message.....still no call back...Now my people will have to pay another months rent because no way we can close by Friday....plus they have to pay 200 extra for reinspection which unless re can prove a licensed contract did the work as it involved electrical and ac stuff they probably wont take......HOW DO THEY STAY IN BUSINESS???????? DO THEY NOT WANT TO SELL ANYTHING??? GRRRRRRR

MATTERS OF THE HEART

MATTERS OF THE HEART are the most important things in life and work. If your heads not on straight you cant focus or preform as you should.

Thursday afternoon I found out my son had exploded in his work efforts. He pitched .1 of an inning giving up 5 runs and 2 BB and 2WP...That was his second bad game in a row. I called him he sounded down so I jumped in my car and drove 6 hours to see him in Orlando Fl. I took him out for a few days after ball making sure his confidence was brought back up to speed.  We had a good relaxing weekend and when I left I felt for sure he will be an ace on the mound Mon or Tue when he pitches next. It hard first year playing professional ball.. He  had made 6 awesome appearence up till last week. I told him this would come eventually...The big boys always catch up to you sooner or later.

On the work level my seller for the short sale still hasnt gotten his paperwork back to me, and her all along I thought his wife was the only problem..grrr. GMAC is gonna kill me soon if I dont get this done. I also had a call for a listing appointment Monday Morning wooo......

ANOTHER OFFER ON A HOME FOR SALE IN PANAMA CITY FLORIDA

ANOTHER OFFER ON A HOME IN PANAMA CITY FLORIDA. Today started out kinda hectic. I had out monthly meeting at 10 am this morning. Having stayed up late play poker with friends and not being a morning person anyway I was dragging a bit this morning. I got to the office a bit early to try and get a few things started before our meeting.

As soon as I sat at my desk Judy, one of the other Realtors, walks up and say do you have your idea to share today. I said what Idea..lol...I forgot we were suppose to all do a presentation on something to help the others in our office out. So I scrambled around the internet and found a few good ideas. How to follow up with your customers better and spend the first 2 hours of your day prospecting. Prospecting could be as simple as calling old customers and just saying hi. Then at the end ask them if they know of anyone looking to sell or purchase a home.

During the meeting my phone was ringing off the hook. I am suppose to have two closings this week. One Wed and One Friday. The Wed one is my mobile home people and they havent got me the power of attorneys to get the titles so we can close. I hate selling MOBILE HOMES...  I called them all day and never got an answer or a returned call.....They are wearing me out. The other one is going pretty smoth should close without a hitch.

I had showings yesterday afternoon with a new customer. Today he wanted to look at a few more homes. He is STATIONED AT TYNDALL AFB here in PANAMA CITY. Just had been transferred in and was trying to get a home now so his family could move down. Just a little starter home under 100K. Well we found one this afternoon he liked and we are making an offer on it. Its A short sale here in panama city. Should take a few weeks but will get done.

I have two other deals working, one on my LISTING and one I have the BUYER. The listing an offer was made we are still negotiating. The other is a CONDO AT PANAMA CITY BEACH. They wont counter our offer....GRRRRRR..

Watched the all star gane and cleaned hpouse up some tonight.. Now its nite nite time..Sweet Dreams

FREE MONEY CONDO'S FOR SALE PANAMA CITY BEACH FLORIDA

Yesterday I got FREE MONEY CONDO'S FOR SALE PANAMA CITY BEACH FLORIDA. When I was at Cary NC for my son Zach Jadofsky's college world series with the UNIVERSITY OF WEST FLORIDA I had had a customer I was working with. This was a lead off my website. He was coming into town that Saturday to look at 4 condo's out of the ones I had sent him. I never believed we would make it to the championship game so I had set appointments for him to come in that Saturday. Well Thursday when we qualified for the final game I called my broker. Told her I had a buyer coming in. I had given referrals like this to other Realtors at our firm and they had not closed any. I told her he was coming to buy would she please take good care of him since I could not be there. Well she did and they put an offer in.. and they just closed..woooooo...I made $1000 while on vacation..

I had one agent say to me while I was talking about it, You didn't make $1000 you lost $3000...lol....I said how do you figure that? I was where I wanted to be.. I saw my son make history...I had never met this person in person just emails back and forth off a registered person to my website...If I had not stayed to watch my son win a National Championship, I would of regretted it the rest of my life and it was worth more then any money can buy.. If my broker had not taken care of him and I had to blow him off to another day he probably would of come and bought from another Realtor and what would I have got???

I guess this is the difference between a person who thinks the glass is half full and one that is half empty....

ENJOY LIFE...LIVE FREE....DONT MISS THE LITTLE THINGS...AND ALWAYS LIVE WITH NO REGRETS....

ANOTHER GREAT DAY FOR A PANAMA CITY REALTOR

Friday was another busy day. I started at 830 in the morning meeting a couple from Atlanta who came to PANAMA CITY BEACH to look at CONDO'S FOR SALE. We looked till 230 pm. Man it was so hot too. We had 2 that we showed up to that we couldnt get in because someone had rented them the night before. I wish they would call you when this happens, instead of making you waste your gas and clients time. 

Then the GREAT NEWS.. my younger son Jake texted me that his Brother Zach Jadofsky had finally pitched in his first professional game ever and got the win..wooo......   Zach came in his team down 4-3 and pitched 2 scoreless inning striking out two, and his team came back and put up 3 runs in the 8th and 9th to win 6-4. 

This morning we went back and looked at a few condo's again and my clients made an offer on one.. Hope it gets accepted...

Tonight their is a new theme restaurant here I am going to Sherlock's Mystery Dinner Theatre,  tonight its dinner and a western murder mystery..

CONDO'S ARE STILL HOT IN PANAMA CITY BEACH FLORIDA

Today was an up and down day. The couple I spent all day monday and twesday morning with emailed me today. They decided to buy a condo..Just not one I showed them :( They decided to buy the one that was not GULF FRONT here in PANAMA CITY BEACH that their friend sent them to see. Cant win them all. 

But then at 730 am this morning my phone rang. I thought maybe somethingw as wrong with one of my kids. It was a local lawyer he wanted to see one of the GULF FRONT CONDO's I had listed as an OWNER FINANCE AVAILABLE. We first made plans for noon, but around 930 he called said a client had cancelled and asked could we meet now. I have a couple coming in from ATLANTA GA Friday and Saturday to look at OWNER FINANCED GULF FRONT CONDO'S and was making appointments for them so I had not showered yet. I told him I would meet him in Half an hour, jumped into the shower, shaved and dressed in 15 minutes and was off. 

He took about 30 minutes looking over the condo and said he liked it. He started to talk about the OWNER FINANCING and I stopped him. I told him I didnt want to get in the middle of that I would have my sell call him and they could haggle over the particulars. My seller said they talked for almost an hour about a bunch of stuff and he told him he would get back to him tomorrow. 

After I finished with him I headed back home. I had to get all these appointments set for my next couple coming tomorrow, and GOD you don't know how hard that is. I called several of the listings and they are booked till August!!! Why people put these on the PANAMA CITY MLS for sale when you cant show then Ill never understand. These were all OWNER FINANCED GULF FRONT CONDO'S and they say motivated seller....how motivated are they if you cant show them for 2 months???? Then you have the Realtors you call and they never call you back. You have to call and call until you happen to get them to answer the telephone. It literally took me from noon till 5pm to make appointments or not at 8 GULF FRONT CONDO's. And you wonder why sometimes we get cranky.... 

I also have 3 closing scheduled I had to do work on. I have one seller wont get me the titles to his Mobile home so we can get a closing set. This is a SHORT SALE and has been going on since February. Then I had to order a SURVEY for another deal I have suppose to close 1st of the month. Then on a GULF FRONT CONDO at MAJESTIC in PANAMA CITY BEACH that is a FORECLOSURE, the listing agent sent the wrong papers and I had to email the buyer a whole new set of documents to sign and mail back...

I had plans for tonight so I never got my mailouts done. Thursday night here in PANAMA CITY BEACH PIER PARK has it SUMMER CONCERTS IN THE PARK. I always go out there and sit with friends and listen to the bands play. Its always a fun and relaxing evening.  Well its 1130 pm time to hit the sack. Have to get up bright and early to go try and make another sale.

  SELL SELL SELL PANAMA CITY CONDO'S FOR SALE

PANAMA CITY CONDOS FOR SALE!!!  TODAY WAS A GREAT DAY!!! My phone started ringing at 9 am this morning. An add for a condo I have at TWIN PALMS caught a prospected buyers eye. It was more then he wanted to spend when I told him the price. So I asked what are you looking for he said he drove down here from BRIMINGHAM AL to look at a condo a friend of his has at LAKETOWN WARF. We discussed that that building was in recievership and it had to be a cash sale as no banks would finance in a building that was in bankruptcy.

So I met him at 1 and we looked at 2 condos and made an appointment to look at 6 more tuesday morning. He has 150K to spend and wants a 2 bedroom. If he can get a GULF FRONT CONDO for what he could the other off the GULF he would be interetsed....Great way to start the day.

I told him Id have to call him back I had to see if there was renters in ther. I was lucky there wasnt I told him I would meet him in 30 minutes there. He didnt like it.. said it was to dated for the price. He gave me his email and I said I would send him more 3 BEDROOM GULF FRONT CONDO'S to look at and if he had another day while he was here onvacation he wanted to look call me the day ahead so I could make sure we could get in them...His wife said maybe Thursday....
