What are people saying about us?
Kim and I recently helped a couple sell their home and buy a new one to be closer to their kids and grandkids. This is what they have to say about the Barron-Daugherty Team:

Before our PC gets unplugged for the move, we want to sincerely thank you for a great moving experience. We certainly made the right choice by selecting you to take care of it all.

* You offered many value-added services (staging, advice, drop-bys, open house, update emails, etc.)
* You networked and kept communications going with our girls to keep everyone in the loop.
(Communication is always the key to success.)
* You accepted us into your 'family of friends' by shared kid stories.
* You adapted your styles to deal with the variety of realtors, loan officers, service providers, etc.
* You never rolled your eyes (in front of me) when I asked dumb questions or repeated myself.

2008 Appraisals - Do You Need to Contest Your Value?
As you may know, our 2008 tax appraisals have arrived. Even though our market is struggling right now, many of our values have gone up (including mine). If you would like to challenge your appraisal, we would be happy to help. We can pull the comparable sales in your neighborhood for your house. Then you can take that information to the tax office and speak to an appraiser. You must meet with the appraiser by May 31, 2008.
If you would like us to do that for you, we will need the following information:
1. Your name
2. Your address
3. Your neighborhood
4. The square footage of your house (excluding the garage)
5. How much was your 2007 appraisal?
6. How much is your 2008 appraisal?
7. What do you think it should be?
If you will email this information to us, we can email back the comparable sales for your neighborhood. As always, if you ever need any real estate help, Laura & I are happy to help. We are never too busy for any of your family or friends as well.

Stone Brooke Crossing Garage Sale & Open House Tour - RESULTS!
Wow...what a weekend! Laura and I would like to thank our awesome neighbors in Stone Brooke Crossing for participating in our First Annual Garage Sale & Open House Tour that took place this past Saturday. Laura and I have heard from several of you and so far the response has been great!
· Well over 250 groups of shoppers visited the garage sales
· Many sellers sold most their items – with reports of one sale being sold out by 11 am
· We had visitors from as far away as Oklahoma as a result of the advertising
· We received cash and donated items for the Samaritan Inn Gateway Apartment Project
· The kids even got in on the excitement with reports of lemonade stands and cookie sales

Based on this response we have decided that we will make it a priority to host this garage sale each year, and possibly twice a year. It is our hope that the word will spread and even more residents will get in on the action! We would like to stress that this was not a HOA sponsored event. Laura and I are residents of Stone Brooke Crossing and were happy to be able to serve our community by organizing and sponsoring the event.

With our team you get TWO agents representing you resulting in TWICE the effort and results. No one knows Stone Brooke Crossing Real Estate like we do! Call us for a no-pressure, complimentary market analysis!

Get Ready...Get Set...
SELL!
This weekend's Neighborhood Garage Sale & Open House Tour is upon us and we have had GREAT feedback! Our Stone Brooke Crossing neighbors are gearing up for some great garage sales. It's time to do your Spring Cleaning & clear out those closets!
If you have already turned in your registration forms and $15 then you will be recieving your garage sale permit tomorrow. Laura and I will be delivering these to you along with a copy of the neighborhood map that will be handed out to all the shoppers as they drive into our neighborhood on Crutcher Crossing (by the pool). You'll be the first to get a sneak peek at all the goodies your neighbors will be selling.
Make sure you stop by the pool and park area on Saturday morning, because Nathan Scott with First United Mortgage will be handing out donuts and refreshments. Come on down and say HI and meet some of your neighbors. Laura and I look forward to meeting each of you.
