Buying and Selling Price. Price. Price. Yes, it’s the Price. Did I Say It’s the Price? Pricing: The One Thing That Actually Sells a Home There’s a quiet truth in real estate that nobody likes to say out loud, so I will: Price is the only thing that truly sells a home. Yes — location matters. Yes — condition matters. Yes — floor plan matters (and some of them matter a […]
Buying and Selling You. Are. NOT. Them. “Stop Copying Someone Else’s Life — You’re Taking a Different Test” I once read something that stuck with me: Life is like a difficult exam, and most people fail because they’re too busy trying to copy someone else… not realizing everyone has a different test paper. The older I get — and the more people […]
Buying and Selling My Dad Bod and Oversized Shirt Collar “Two Traps I Fell Into (And Finally Crawled Out Of)” If there’s one thing the Invisible Agent is good at, it’s quietly navigating life while trying not to trip over his own thoughts. But let’s be honest: I’ve fallen into my fair share of traps. Not dramatic, life‑ending ones but more like the subtle, mental […]
Buying and Selling It’s. The. Price. one more time: It’s. The. Price. Kindness Is the Truth There’s a moment in every listing where I take a deep breath, look at the data, look at the showings (or the lack of them), and I know exactly what the issue is. And it’s never fun to say out loud. It’s the price. I wish it were something else. I […]
Buying and Selling If You Are Desperate, Buy a Snack…Not a House “Decisions Look Different When the Mind Is Calm” One of the biggest energetic truths in real estate and honestly, in life, is this: A calm mind makes clearer decisions than a frantic one. When we’re rushed, panicked, overwhelmed, or trying to “force” something into place, our thoughts aren’t actually guiding us… our fear is. But […]
Buying and Selling But Mom…I. Don’t. Want. This. House! When the Kids Don’t Want the House: A Modern Shift in Family Real Estate and Inheritance For generations, passing down the family home was almost a given — a symbol of legacy, stability, and continuity. But today, more and more adult children are saying something their parents never expected: “I don’t want the house.” This […]
Buying and Selling You Haven’t Knocked Yet “It’s Only Too Late If You’ve Decided It Is” A lot of people talk about homeownership like it’s some distant dream — a door that closed when prices went up, or when life got busy, or when interest rates made headlines. I hear it all the time: “Doug, it’s too late for me.” “I missed […]
Buying and Selling The Energy of a Home: Why Vibes Matter More Than Square footage Have you ever walked into a home and felt instantly at ease—or, just as quickly, uncomfortable—without being able to explain why? That reaction isn’t about floor plans or finishes. It’s energy at work. In real estate, square footage, upgrades, price and location all matter. But more often than people realize, it’s the feeling of a […]

Buying and Selling Be Here Now Energetic Shifts in Real Estate: The Power of Now “In the now you will find what you have been looking for.”  Thich Nhat Hanh There are books that inform, and there are books that transform. The Power of Now did both for me. I remember reading it years ago—slowly, deliberately. Paragraphs were read and reread […]
Buying and Selling Be Happy and Help Others Be The Same Energetic Shifts in Real Estate: Happiness If stress is resistance, then happiness is flow. Life is brief—a small gap between birth and death, as the Buddha reminds us. In that gap, we have a choice: to be happy and to help others feel the same. Not someday. Not when everything is perfect. But now. Happiness […]
Buying and Selling Stress Is A Teacher Energetic Shifts in Real Estate: Stress Stress is rarely about the situation itself. It’s about our response to it. A leaky roof, a noisy neighbor, a looming mortgage payment—these are real. But the stress they cause is not embedded in the event. It’s embedded in our reaction. When we shift our attitude, the stress begins […]
Buying and Selling Distraction Energetic Shifts in Real Estate: Distraction Distraction is often seen as a nuisance, a thief of time and focus. But when we look closer, the word itself offers a clue to its antidote. Remove the “dis” and you’re left with traction—forward movement, grounded momentum. Remove “distr” and you’re left with action—the very thing distraction prevents. […]
Buying and Selling Beyond What-Is You’re reality is a mirror  Beyond What-Is: Creating the Life—and Home—You Want Abraham Hicks said it best: “Many around you want to point out ‘reality’ to you. They say, ‘Face the facts. Look at what-is.’ And we say to you, if you are able to see only what is, then, by the Law of Attraction, […]
Buying and Selling Focus On What You Want Focus on What You Want—In Life and in Real Estate One of my all-time favorite Abraham Hicks quotes is simple, powerful, and true: “You get what you focus on, so focus on what you want.” It applies to everything—from everyday life to homeownership. We live in a world that constantly pulls our attention toward what’s […]
Buying and Selling Loosen Your Grip I read a quote by Michell C. Clark that felt like it was written just for me: “You’re overthinking because you really care what happens next, you don’t want to fail, and you don’t want to let people down. But no amount of planning, worrying, or over-analyzing can give you control over what happens next. […]
Buying and Selling Reframing the Narrative Respect, Real Estate, and Reframing the Narrative I came across a meme recently that struck a chord. It said something like: “It’s okay to have an opinion. It’s okay to disagree with someone’s opinion. It’s not okay to humiliate them because they don’t think the same way you do. Show some respect. Society needs more […]
Buying and Selling Lessons From The 17th Floor Lessons from the 17th Floor: Integrity, Intuition, and the Unexpected Early in my career, I sold a high-rise condo—my first time working in a building like that. My client was also new to high-rise living. We were both excited, a little green, and relying on the listing agent’s guidance. When we asked about the cost […]
Buying and Selling Why I Sell Houses So My Dogs Can Have A Better Life It started as a joke. “I sell houses so my dogs can have a better life.” But over time, I realized it’s true. Real estate, for me, has always been about more than transactions. It’s about creating environments that support peace, well-being, and possibility—for people and their pets alike. Whether it’s a quiet garden for […]
Buying and Selling The Home Price Truth The Truth About Home Prices—and What Really Matters We live in a world where headlines scream about market crashes, interest rates, and housing bubbles. It’s easy to get swept up in the noise. But here’s the truth: the only time the price of a home truly matters is when you buy it and when you […]
