It’s lake time, and here’s your perfect lakeside retreat!

I enjoyed some thought-provoking conversations at the East Texas Top 300 Producers event last Thursday evening. First of all, it was a spectacular event , and it’s always good to socialize and share with peers. The conversations I mentioned earlier had to do with the competitive nature of our business. Although we often compete with friends for the same selling clients and buying clients, true professionals keep that competition invisible to clients.
You can rest assured that I will never recommend a listing price based on that being the reason I attain your listing. If I suggest you list your home for $50,000 more than the comparable sales indicate, I’m not doing anyone any favors. If a realtor suggests a higher price just to get the listing, then in 30 days suggests you reduce the price by a significant amount, you’ve essentially lost your marketability for those 30 days.  Seasoned professionals don’t play those games. In addition, if your realtor is trying to attain your listing by saying unkind or unprofessional things about another realtor who you are considering, there’s an ethics violation happening. 
Please choose your realtor carefully… Ask for references, have a conversation about comparable sales and reasoning for suggested pricing. A true professional welcomes these conversations.

Great info from StaceyLynn Mike Weaver (Owners of Bugbusters).

WEAVER’S SPRING TIP Please…. Pay attention to your Crepe Myrtles, Azaleas ect.. in East Texas. Notice the black sooty mold? This is Bark Scale & it has become more prominent since the early 2000's. March to spring is the perfect time to treat/drench these trees “Systemically” since it is the most alive and begins to bud therefore taking up nutrients from the ground. These products can be purchased over the counter at some of our favorite local plant nurseries. Sadly, Crepe Myrtles are becoming more and more neglected in East Texas therefore spreading this bark scale to neighboring trees. Since we have 33 of these Crepe Myrtles that we personally maintain ourselves we have found that lightly pressure washing the bark on these trees along with other trees before treating/drenching helps them to shed the unnecessary black sooty mold. Your trees can breathe better and they will thank you for it by flourishing! Keep in mind trees are alive as we are and we must maintain the ones we intend to keep so they stay healthy as we do ourselves. As you see we care a great deal about doing our part and protecting the health of these beloved East Texas trees so if you have Crepe Myrtles please pay attention to them so many generations down can enjoy their beauty as well.
