Team Shanahan donated a GIANT Pumpkin for the annual “Trunk or Treat” Halloween event at Folsom Lakeside Church http://lakesidechurch.com/. Thousands of adorable trick or treaters had a blast patting and sitting on the enormous 853lb pumpkin grown by Jeff Larkin of Granite Bay, CA. The pumpkin took 5th place honors at the Auburn Community Festival this year!
Thanks goes to Lakeside Church and Mr. Larkin for making this a special day for the kids…and the pumpkin too!
Check out the new “city tab” for GRANITE BAY located along the top of my blog page. I appreciate the fine folks at Granite Bay Country Club and Johnson Ranch Racquet Club for their warm welcome in touring the spectacular grounds of each facility. Granite Bay is fortunate to have such wonderful amenities in their community! Hope you like the new video…
You’ll always hear that ”location, location, location” is a main priority when talking to a Realtor about buying real estate. What priority should you hear coming from a “listing agent” regarding real estate? In my opinion it should be “Disclose, Disclose, Disclose.” Now this may scare some of you potential sellers…but think about it carefully. Always put yourself on the other side of the transaction. If you’re a buyer and someone has told you everything about a property (ie…the modifications, home improvements, repairs, and even the little quirks), you’re more likely to be fully satisfied with your purchase and not want to sue someone if you knew about it ahead of time. I’ve found that buyers don’t usually walk away from too much disclosure. It’s usually the other way around. Many buyers are nervous receiving disclosures from sellers with little to nothing on the paperwork. I mean seriously…can you really live in a house for even as little as 5 years and not have something you’ve fixed, improved or had to giggle a certain way? Come on sellers!!! Disclose, disclose, disclose. This makes common sense and will keep you out of the courtroom. Not to mention…it’s just the right thing to do!
