Last year, Compass was #1 again in total volume and number of homes sold. We have the most agents too - you can see why going it alone looks more and more feasible. I'm not sure what I did to get a mention, but, man, Donna is going to wonder what happened!
I counted 32 NSDCC houses for sale on the Compass private exclusives list that aren't on the MLS. They aren't well-organized - just a one-liner list for the whole county - and they are mostly homes being prepared for market, or tenant-occupied, or old listings that...
Airplanes flying over the house every 5-10 minutes wasn’t the only complaint. “The kitchen is too small, can you get fire insurance, it’s single-zone air conditioning, the bathrooms are original, you don’t have a pantry” - it just never ends, even at a house with...

Fellow realtor Paul left this comment earlier: Thank you Paul! Why don't realtors adopt the full-transparency idea? Since the beginning of time, there has been an old wife's tale that agents can't divulge anything about the offers they've received. It's a bunch of...
I hope you get a chance to see the 3-hour documentary Ladies and Gentlemen 50 Years of SNL Music - the only problem is it's too short! One clip that didn't make the cut was this one-time-only performance: The Power Station were a British-American 1980s/1990s rock and...
