Perhaps the nicest thing ever written about me

Imagine my surprise, when flipping through this week’s C-Ville today, I was surprised to see a review of RealCentralVA.com (no longer available).

1. It is an unsolicited endorsement.
2. It takes up a quarter-page in one of the two prominent weekly newspapers in Charlottesville.
2. It accurately captures many, and nearly all, of my goals with this blog.
3. It’s local.
4. It’s genuine.

It’s also refreshing that Duncan doesn’t take the typical Realtor’s approach of basically shilling the properties that he lists. The way Duncan writes about real estate and the articles he links to make it clear that he is not just in the business to make a living; the man seems genuinely interested in real estate as a topic of intelligent discussion, in sharing what he knows and in learning more.

Quite candidly, this review (no longer available) is one of the nicest things I think has ever been written about me, and I hope to live up to the clearly high expectations I have set.  I’m humbled and grateful. Thank you.

Writing a Bit Less on the Blog

I'm writing less here, and that's ok. It's not for a lack of ideas (I have a long list of drafts), or time, necessarily, but I've been focusing on clients so much that my drafts are remaining drafts for a bit longer.  As I wrote…
