No Guru, method, dog or vacation…

By Hans Tonjes, August 19, 2018

A great big round of thanks and hugs to so many clients this year for making compromises, in what they want, in what they will afford, in what they will sell their property for. In a second home market few have to buy, few have to sell. So this puts a spin on negotiations, urgency, complacency and motivation. A heartfelt thanks to my son, killing two birds by pretending to be a dog and in not having a real vacation. The vacations at the beach in the summer are all for you, come and get them. I’m not standing down until you’ve all made it here. Hans Tonjes 503-936-4244 hans@livingroomre.com
