Blogging with Buddy, August 24, 2018

Wow!!! It’s been a heck of a summer, with warm sun day after day and warm nights too.  Is this the new trend for summer in New Brunswick?  I’m so fortunate the I get to swim in the Bay of Fundy on the weekends at New River Beach.  It’s so cool and refreshing but not as cool as it used to be.  The suns seems to warming it up especially  as it comes in over the hot sand to the point that even Nicholas is enjoying it.  I love New River Beach and so does Mama, she says she’d like to retire down there with the cool breeze off the ocean and the fine sand, it’s so peaceful!  Nicholas and I wouldn’t give her any argument there but we can’t see her retiring any time soon!!!  She loves what she does and business has been busier this year than she’s seen in a long time.   Plus things run so smoothly with Charlie on board!  He has so much experience, expertise and finesse with the clients, not to mention a massive network.  His paper work is impeccable which Mama says it’s like working with a lawyer, all i’s dotted and t’s crossed, perfection!

Together they’ve racked up more sales this week with 19 Upper Deck listed and sold by them at $439,900,  433 Pelton Road listed and sold by them too at $488,500 plus Charlie’s listing at 39 Perters Hill Road at $209,500.  August is typically the slowest month of the year but not this year and July is the second slowest but it was busy too.   They’re not complaining, just the opposite they’re happy to help their treasured clients buy and sell their dream homes!

Our garden is lovely this year.  Mama cut off a lot of her gladiolas and brought them in the house for arrangements.  Stunning shades of purple, mauve, raspberry, ivory and coral.  Mama says I’m pretty good at naming my colours but hey what can I say, I was taught by a professional!

We have a fabulous new four-season, fully furnished waterfront listing on Belleisle Bay at 45 Pascobac Lane with one full acre, sandy beach, deep water anchorage, 3-car garage, 1928 square foot ranch home, with full height stone fireplace, open concept and finished daylight walkout basement with guest apartment with full kitchen!  Listed at $475,000.  Bring on the summer fun!  I featured this favourite in ‘Buddy’s Best’ in last weeks Real Estate Guide.  Imagine waking up to this every morning!!!  I could never go to work, I’d have to retire, hahaha!

  

Well I’d been after Mama for a dogs-age (no pun intended) to get me my new Coldwell Banker business cards and low and behold they arrived last week.  I love them.  They’ve got my picture in the corner, my title (Company Mascot), my email address (Buddy@KatherineBacon.com) and my signature paw print!  I didn’t put my phone number as only my four-legged friends seem to speak Dawg!  Nicholas is pea-green but I explained as my side-kick he does not get his own cards yet but… if he keeps up the good work I’ll put in a good word for him with the boss.  He almost bit me with that remark.  I explained he needs to learn to type, use the computer and spell so he can help me with my blog.  But I must say that he does a fantastic job at public relations!!!  He’s so friendly with our clients and the general public that sometime I have to whisper to tone it down a bit…the ladies keep saying, “OMG, he kissed my ear!”.

Enjoy your weekend and hope to see you soon.

Your pal,
