Sheila Moran ~Broker Bits~: Texas: San Antonio

At our last office meeting I asked each and every fabulous Agent that we have here at RE/MAX ACCESS to tell me exactly what it was that makes them stay.

Here is what Nadine Berger told me:

"I stay with our office because of the professionalism and the class of Agents that Sheila brings into our office.  I also like that Kristin and Sheila are proactive with Twitter, Facebook and blogging.  They have put themselves outside of the box when it comes to teaching our Agents different ways to market ourselves that is required in today's market.  Everything they do is to help me be very successful and profitable in this tough and challenging market."

Then I asked her why did she move to RE/MAX ACCESS:

"I'm here because of my respect for Sheila and what she stands for with Real Estate.  I also very much appreciate that Kristin is experienced with marketing and brings so much experience to our office.   I also like all the Agents & office staff very much."

WOW.

I couldn't have said it better.  This from a seasoned, well respected, high producing Agent.  Need I say more.

Thinking about making a move?  Call me so we chat about your future!

I thought I would share with you two pieces that will be auctioned off at the  Women's Council of REALTORS- San Antonio ~ Art Expo to benefit the Gordon Hartman Foundation

These pieces were submitted and accepted by the committee:

They are the property of Sandra Moran McGann (yes, another Moran sister)

Recession 101:  What if nobody participated?    

Driving along a cut away street on the North East side of San Antonio I curiously came across these billboards. 

I couldn't believe my eyes and stopped the car and photographed each and every one.  I'm sure I was a spectacle to the cars driving by.  I hope the billboards were also a spectacle.  

I was so pleased that someone was out there putting positive words out to the masses.   

It was then that I read the story of how these billboards came to be.  An anonymous donor wanted to remind Americans to collectively "take a deep breath".  Have you ever heard of such a thing?  Not me.  Do I like it and appreciate it?  You bet.   

The entire campaign is geared to raising Americans spirits and lift them up according to the website:  www.recession101.org  or you can catch them on twitter:  twitter.com/recession101  

I tell you that morning there was nothing better than seeing these uplifting words "up in the sky".  

To anonymous donor, I thank you.  I'm sure many Americans would also give a "collective" sigh of relief too.    

Either we participate or we don't. 

This darling 1 bedroom + living room + seperate dining is located in a quiet corner of the complex.  Across the street is "The Collection" shopping center at Broadway and Sunset!

Plumbing in San Antonio and Texas ~ All Pro Plumbing      

This is Eric with All Pro Plumbing.  Eric is a great coordinator.  He does PR for All Pro Plumbing and takes our property management calls.  He knows a lot about plumbing, but most important he's honest and fair.    Oh, did I mention patient.  Yes, patient to answer all of my silly questions!

At any rate when you are dealing with a large organization such as All Pro Plumbing and A/C I always tend to think that you could get lost in the shuffle.  Not so at All Pro.  Keep in mind that they service a lot of different areas in Texas.  Here is an example.

Did I also mention that it's just not plumbing with them.  Water Heaters, Softeners and Air Conditioning and Heating also.

So, need someone that is reliable and knowledgable? This is the company for you.

In San Antonio, Eric can be reached at 210-734-8400, or go online and put in a request at www.AllProTexas.com

Advertise your business with a "wrap" of your vehicle in San Antonio, Texas ~ Call Traffic Graffics

Last year, my sister, Kristin Moran and I decided to purchase a moving van. 

Now this was no ordinary moving truck...it's 18 feet long!  We wanted to add another privilege for our clients that purchase or sell a house through the Sisters That Sell team.  

We called David Larsonwith Traffic Graffics.  He has been in the marketing business for some time now, has great ideas, is honest, finishes the job, but most important does quality work.   See I brought David a truck that looked like this:      

and he magically turned it into this:
