Hi @Alex Wynn, I meetup for dinner with some real estate investors but don't have set dates.

If you were at a dinner party and a guest at the dinner party asked you this question, what percentage would you give them?"...

I have to add my own two cents though...in the summer time...the spiders down by the river are HUGE....and I had a couple of times where I had to decide to battle critters to deliver pizza or go back to my car and have dinner. haha.

Can someone see themselves living in your home right now- I think you may need to give them a little help seeing themselves having family dinners and watching tv or even sending kids off to school.I think with some nice furniture your coffered ceiling will look beautiful.

I have found houses/put offers on a house because my realtor (who has become my friend) was over having dinner/drinking wine and a house I had been watching came up.

Driving down the street you see some guys doing some work on a property, and you stop, grab your cards, and go talk to them ....When the planning department, courts, and records department clerks wave at you as you walk into the county building...When you drive 2 hours to and from for dinner in San Francisco ...Visiting a friend you start asking them about house prices and if they know of anyone who is trying to sell in the neighborhood ...The guy at the coffee place finally says, you are in here every day, what do you do?

I'll buy dinner / drinks!

I grew up immersed in real estate, dinner talk was easements, right of ways, surveys,  evictions, Etc.

We had been talking about college at the dinner table a few nights before, and I guess he caught the part about how expensive it is.It warmed this frugal grandma's heart!

@Robert Blanchard Gifts are fun to give, especially when you can really personalize them (dinner at a favorite restaurant) or help someone out (get a dirty furnace cleaned).
