Ask Denise: Sharing Listing News?

Denise Lones

Q:  Denise, I live in an area that is experiencing some high turnover and every agent is sending out the same just listed card (because they are all with the same company).

Ask Denise: Where To Start?

Denise Lones

Q:  Denise, I am nervous about evaluating my business because this year has been insanely busy! I have just been maintaining… I know I am going to owe a ton in taxes. I haven’t touched any projects for the year. I haven’t taken care of my database. And just the thought of spending time looking […]

Ask Denise: No Legroom?

Q:  Denise, the new cars for the year are coming out in a few weeks. I have been longing for a new car for a looong time! However, I am torn because the car I want doesn’t have enough legroom in the back for my passengers to ride comfortably. It seems, though, that buyers usually […]
