A key attribute for long-term survival in real estate is becoming a master problem solver — a fixer. I can’t count how many transactions were declared dead on arrival by another agent, title company, or mortgage company, only for me and others to pull them back from the brink of the dead-deal file cliff. Fact: Real estate agents don’t get paid until after closing. But the real accomplishment wasn’t the paycheck; it was changing the course of buyers’ and sellers’ lives, redirecting them toward where they were meant to go.

25 to 30 years ago, for no real reason, I started waking up at 4 a.m. and reading. It became a habit—Somehow I've read about 100 books a year since. Books are rabbit holes, and I’ve gone down hundreds of them. Some have genuinely shaped how I see the world, and I’m still following where they lead. So instead of posting silly things, I thought I would share with you, from time to time only the path shaping books I am reading now

I’ve handled the sale of several homes with difficult histories, including suicides and a murder-suicide. For context, Michigan law doesn’t require agents or the seller disclose a death on a property unless it affected the home’s physical condition.

The summer after my father died, my Mother piled all four of us kids into a Greyhound bus to Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, where she grew up. We stayed on a farm and played on that beach almost every day. Not yet old enough to know we were standing somewhere extraordinary, a place on the bucket list of many people.

I become a little sad every year my little Ivy has a birthday. She doesn't know death or time, but I do. She chose me early as her favorite. The kind of joy a pet brings is different. Unlike humans, they have short agendas: love me, play with me, feed me. I call her my love bucket.

Poor Milton Friedman would never get within six feet of a college campus today, unfortunately. There are people right now in this world who would consider their prayers answered to change places with you, no matter how poor you think you are.

In the late 1960s, I had a part-time job at Sacred Heart Academy for girls in Grosse Pointe. Now Grosse Pointe Academy. In the summer, I cut grass. It was 22 acres, and it took me a whole week to finish. These were Catholic girls from wealthy families. Some were boarders from other places. Those were the wild ones. Yes, I did get in trouble a few times. I almost got fired for taking off my shirt while cutting the grass. Will never forget that job.
