Happy September!
The end of summer always brings a touch of melancholy as September routines and responsibilities settle in until summer delights return once again the next year. For many of us, September is a mini New Year, especially for those of us who are teachers or who have school-aged children or book clubs, bridge clubs, church groups or various other hobbies that enjoy a summer hiatus. So many things begin anew. It's an exciting time as we anticipate the new experiences ahead. It can be the perfect time to take on new challenges or reset our goals. Balance Group utilizes this time to evaluate our goals and services so we can continue to better serve you.
Our society is certainly experiencing a tumultuous time. Sadly, differing opinions have incited a lot of angst. As Realtors, differing opinions are usual in our lives. While on a much smaller scale, at the time they arise, these differences are extremely important when negotiating an acceptable contract of purchase and sale between a buyer and seller. They can trigger emotions and opinions unexpectedly. Sellers and Buyers always have different opinions especially when it comes to a home's value. One of our skills is to assist our clients to work through the differences and bring both sides to a mutual agreement.

Hope your September is off to a great start!
