So Shanna Cox, CEO and President of the Lewiston Auburn Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce gave a presentation to the Auburn-Lewiston Rotary Breakfast Club a month or so ago regarding all of the funds that were set up to help the families, first-responders, and others affected by the tragic mass-shooting that occurred October, 25th, 2023.

She wanted to bring forth a clear way to show how funds were collected and where they went, and will go in the future, in an effort at full transparency. It is an excellent presentation and I asked if she would like to use my podcast platform in order that others may learn of her, and her staff's, amazing efforts at guiding the various fund organizers.

Please take 20 minutes to view this presentation. The L/A community could not have been more fortunate to have Shanna, and so many others, at the ready when the Lewiston, shootings occurred.

Homesellers, the market is changing and giving back some of the power to buyers.  It's very important that you find a qualified agent  that you can trust to walk you safely through the intricacies of a real estate transaction. 

This is business, and unless your agent knows what's going on, you could lose thousands of dollars  and/or precious time on market. 

Thanks to Sierra Lemieux - Fontaine Family - The Real Estate Leader  for helping to shed light on what was once a common occurrence, and is seeming to be making a comeback.

Homesellers, you want a cash offer for your home? This is just as good!

Watch Mike Rock explain the benefits of his HarborOne Mortgage Home Run cash offer program.  This helps buyers get in a position to send great offers, and guarantees the seller (YOU) a closing. If something happens to the buyer, Mike's team ensures a closing.

At the beginning of the CoVID lockdown, I helped a couple sell their home in Saco, Maine. Because one of the sellers had just come off chemo, and was immunocompromised, we used the ShowngTime and Zoom apps to book and present the home virtually for ALL first showings. 

17 showings in two days and not a single buyer stepped foot in the home. From that, we had 8 offers and the sellers chose a few to allow in-person viewing in the following two days. 

If you're looking for out-of-the-box thinking to help with a selling challenge, call or text me at 207-415-7501.
