After the 5th "I told my transaction coordinator to do it"

Without your transaction coordinator getting it done

Is probably time for you to go do it

Do. Your. Job.

@RealLifeRentals We had a res appraisal come in 100k short and the next one came in at price

Dianne Feinstein, 90, has now ceded power of attorney to daughter, but still serves in Congress, per NYP.

Feinstein has incredibly unusual trades over 30 years in Congress.

In that time her net worth is up over $200 million.

Let's look at some of her unusual trades:

@tclarkmedia @nice_alec I have one. Love it, works and looks great. I'm not a camera guy but it's easy to navigate

I've got it on the dji rs3 mini gimbal

Rode mini shotgun mic + rode wireless go 2 lav mics

Sweet rig for under 5k can do whatever you need

Top 5 advice I ever got:

"Some flowers need to bloom where they were planted"

My mom told me this when I dropped out of college and moved home. I was SO embarrassed, thought I'd be a loser and a disappointment forever

Turned out it was one of the best decisions I ever made

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

@Cashes__Clay @noahkagan I have a different take

I always tell clients to plan an exit strategy even on their primary home

We've had buyers like the house and area so much that they pay way over list and neglect the future scenario

They are rarely happy when it's time to sell

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

Us:
"Yeah we're not waiving the appraisal. No way."

Them:
"Yeah we don't expect you to. A gap will be fine"

The seller counter:
"Buyer to waive appraisal contingencies"

😑

The biggest listing of my career went pending in 2 days

I can't believe it. I feel like I'm living in a dream

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

All the Mexican food places by my parents house are going out of business

20+ years I've been eating at these restaurants and all it takes is one new owner to paint them white and drive them into the ground

Very sad

Had 2 deals fall out of escrow this week

Last year me would've been furious

This year me knows it just means we have to do 4 next month

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

Hold the huge deals lightly, but hustle hard for them

Don't neglect your bread and butter when something bigger comes your way

Small fish are good fish

@jefffeldman "I don't know and neither does anybody else" is my favorite answer

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

Does anyone actually plan on refinancing into a 40yr mortgage with a balloon payment?

Bad idea

@cary_beale Cigarettes! 🚬

[Jake Lyons @JakeLyons_RE]

Just missed an opportunity to buy one of the best deals I've seen in a long while

Why?

Because the agent listed it 200k under market and I'm not looking in that price range

Bad business
