I am a boy Scout leader and last night I had the chance to present a few boys with their merit badges and rank advancements at our year end court of honor. It’s so much fun working with these young men and getting to see the joy in their parents’ faces when they see their
Today during my business meeting, I was speaking with someone about the current probate real estate market. He was sharing with me how in his market in Orlando, Florida houses are starting to sit a bit longer. Well, as a matter of fact, that is something I am experiencing in some of my markets too.
