As lenders turn red and Realtors turn blue,

It seams that the market is turning the screws.

What once was so easy has become quite a bit

breasy.

Take them to notice that were fending off lotus

and gone with the wind are the days of quick loans

to all the people I say "get ready for groans".

We all will work harder for our share of the pie

in hopes that our own dreams won't go by the wayside

So its off to the running of the latest race, And I for one

go with a daunting of pace.

You asked for a poet and man don't I know it that I am

not one and this is just for fun.

This could a fun break Karen I like it 3 stars worth.

Will check back at 12:30 to see how the others do.

Hopefully we will see some great poets here.

lmao  :))

Deck the halls and stage the bedrooms, fa la la la la, la la la la.

You can't learn this in the boardroom fa la la la la, la la la la.

It looks great, when will they buy it fa la la, la la la, la la la.

Staging works, why dont' more try it fa la la la la, la la la la.

Neutral carpet, neutral colors fa la la la la, la la la la.

Sure to bring in extra dollars fa la la la la, la la la la.

Place a plant and put a chair here fa la la la la la, la la la

Buyers shout, "we want to live here" fa la la la la, la la la la.

I had to do a Christmas ditty to help with the heat, it is still poetry, right?

"Point2 is my compass"

Wow, methinks somebody is looking for fifty bucks :-)

I may have to use that line . . .

I"m a Broker,

A Non Smoker,

Wear a diamond choker . . .

With license in hand I forged ahead,

Visions of contracts whirled in my head.

Lo and behold, I found a buyer;

My broker said he might be a liar.

I showed him homes and bought him a meal,

Closing in on my very first deal.

He liked the cottage at 22 Crawford,

Tomorrow, he said, I’ll make an offer.

The next day came and then it was gone,

The buyer would not answer his phone.

I called and called ‘til my fingers were sore,

I’ll make this deal, I solemnly swore.

Three days later he gave me a call

His loan pre-qual had taken a fall.

Oh, I was flummoxed and taken aback –

My buyer had bought a new Cadillac.

flummoxed? sounds painful. lol

Candice, are you a midnight toker? lol It rhymes.

A Realtor’s life can be made very simple

Just look like a star and have a big dimple (or other things)

Your smile will win them over almost every time

But if you have a hot-body they surely sign on the line!

This is not say the ugly one’s can’t succeed,

It just means an assistant they need.

Although this all meant just to be funny

Look out for the client that stats calling you Honey.

It may be a house you trying to sell

But the client you’re dealing with may be a product of Hell

So with warning in hand and all our best wishes

Go sell a house or you’ll be swimming with the fishes! – Dom Vito Corleone

there once was a young realtor from bangor

who wanted to sell the house before her

the couple said YES

the loan was a mess

And now they are all in foreclosure

House (a Haiku)

Pine floors gleaming bright

morning sun warms the granite

melding wood and rock

Craig!!!  You're a poet!!  Still waters run deep, huh?

someone should make it into a book of poems and have it as recommended reading in the pre-licensing classes :-).

You all rock!

Shelly said "Still waters run deep, huh?"

Not really, more along the lines of Jack Handey...

Here goes - a homage to the Ethics class I took today.

Today was the day

To enter the door

Of the room of the class

We must take every four

Years to remind us our duty sworn

To uphold the highest and best use

Of the land we adore

REALTOR® Ethics? They cry when we say we adhere

To a code of such high standards that makes

Some tremble in fear

Of failing to meet

The demands of those 17 Articles

Laid at our feet

Who knew? They say having just been burned

By the agent/car salesman who’s soul has turned

Only to the quest for the almighty dollar

No matter who gets churned

We know and hold it close to our vests

The heart of the REALTOR® beating in our chests

We love the land and serve our client’s invest-

Ments

With the golden rule as our guide

We’re on your side.

Yeah Bee!!  Very good.  I like it : )

Shelly

<taking a bow>  Thank you!

Mary wins! Mary wins! :)

If the foundation is love,

the home will stand strong,

and all within will shine.

Candice just likes Christmas and the Easter Bunny! They all win!

Oh, give me a home

Where the buffalo roam

And I'll show you a house full of poop.

MARY WINS AGAIN! Damn Mary you are good . . . :)

Candice, apples, cash or oranges?

I attribute my creativity (lol) to lack of sleep.

But I hope to get some this weekend.

COLD CASH, coooooool cash and did I mention CASH? :)

You hope to get which this weekend? Creativity or sleep? LOLOLOL

Dear Lord I Pray Today

A Great Big Sale Will Come My Way

I Need Some More Money In The Bank

So Please Send Me A Buyer For Lots of Thanks!

Lol, I have no idea. I guess I will take whatever is going around while I am sleeping. lol.

Ginny!!  Very funny.  I think I will cut that out and paste to my bathroom mirror.  I will say "Ginny's Prayer" every morning, lol!!

Shelly
