Changing of the times...

Talking with a friend today... about changing times.  Dating myself would be the understatement, and with age, it's more fun to think about the old days that it is the present... it seemed much more fun at the time; but alas, as I continue to ponder those "good times" there was always anticipation about the future... Ironic isn't it. 

From life without indoor plumbing all the way to the present age has really brought lots of changes.  Cooking dinner was to go out to the chicken coop and catch the chicken... get the veggies from the barn where we kept all the "canned" good that were in "jars."  The figs were there too... which became dessert with a pile of figs on top of one of those "cat head" biscuits... UMMMMMMM!

We lived in the heat, but didn't know it was hot... the only time it was cool was fall and winter... In the summer, we lived outside ... till the mosquitos were so bad we couldn't stand it... and then we went inside. Life was sweet with sweat I guess...

Such is the life of Real Estate... Contracts came from a single page transaction to now upwards of over 50 pages plus addendums and exhibits.  Simple handshakes to seal the deal became multi million dollar law suits over the 50 plus page contract discreprencies.  From the simple to the extreme... from the trust... to the dis-trust.  Now a contract means less than the handshake of old.

If your thinking of selling or buying a home, it behooves you to get an agent that knows what is going on...  An agent can help protect your interests and can advise you in things that are crucial in negotiating a contract and protecting you.
