I first met these clients last year at an open house I was hosting. Months later, they reached out when they were ready to buy. We started looking at homes and finally landed on one. They were able to get their VA loan offer accepted!

However, we knew the home needed some repairs. We were able to negotiate seller concessions to offset some of those repair expenses. The seller left behind over 50 sandbags that we had to haul away after closing, but it worked out because I was able to deliver the sandbags to another client who could use them.

Now this couple is currently in the process of making the home their own. And I now call them friends, and we hope to go fishing together one day soon. 🎣

Imagine this scenario: you've just toured a home with me. As we walk back to the car, I unveil this dreaded screen.

Tipping culture has evolved into quite the topic of discussion lately, hasn't it? While I wholeheartedly support rewarding exceptional service, it's hard to ignore that tipping has become such a widespread practice, even when service is minimal.

Don't get me wrong. I understand the value of hard-earned tips! But the growing expectation of gratuities for every service, no matter how small, is becoming a bit much. What do you think?
