Anita, Gay, and Judy

These are our new realtors. Anita and Gay are the team for Glenway, and Judy is for Haddon. All of them have very good records - they get houses sold in our neighborhoods! And none of them can figure out how our former realtor possibly came up with such high initial prices. Eek. Now that we have made agreements with each of them, they are all working fast to line up the new listings, the disclosures, the photos, the internet ads, the signs, the mailings, the open houses, etc. There's a lot to do and they're all doing it.

That's some of what they have in common. In other ways they are entertainingly different. Anita and Gay are brisk, fast-talking ladies who don't want to waste their time or ours on unrealistic fantasies. They have clear and drastic recommendations about the price, and are moving fast to implement the change so that we can get the buyers in the door and have someone to talk to. Judy is also working hard on our behalf, but she is a former artist, and for her staging is very important. So she is spending the first couple of days bringing in art, accessories, plants, I am not sure what all it will be, working her interior design magic, and photographing our house in that condition. Both properties will be ready for open houses next weekend.

We are hoping Judy finds some really exciting art pieces for our house. I told her kids love glass sculptures. But I think her main interest is pottery, which is almost as good.
