Groundhog Day has some interesting roots. Celebrated on February 2nd, the tradition is based on the superstition that if a groundhog sees its shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter. If the groundhog doesn't see its shadow, spring will come early.

While popularized by the 1993 film starring Bill Murray, the tradition dates back to 1840 in the U.S. and as early as 1750 in Canada. It originates from the German-speaking regions of Europe where a hedgehog was traditionally used to predict the weather. In North America, groundhogs became the official meteorologists as they were more abundant than hedgehogs (although bears and badgers are used in other countries.) Famous North American groundhogs include Punxsutawney Phil, Wiarton Willie, Shubenacadie Sam, Staten Island Chuck, General Beau Lee, Buckeye Chuck, Manitoba Merv, Winnipeg Wyn and Balzac Billy.

Despite the spotlight on this critter’s big moment, the groundhog’s prediction is only about 30-40% accurate. While it’s fun to watch the festivities, we’d rather offer you a bit more certainty when it comes to one of the biggest decisions in life—buying or selling your home

You see, where the groundhog’s weather forecast is all about guesswork, we’ve got a tried-and-true system that helps our clients make their move faster, with greater certainty, and for the best price. So, if someone you know is looking to make a move, we can help, and when you refer them to us, you help a worthy cause at the same time.

As you know, the decision to pack up your life and move to a new home comes with a lot of pressure and uncertainty. Along with the countless details to manage and a rollercoaster of emotions, there are significant financial concerns. Will the sale of your home meet both your expectations and needs?

With our experience of working with over 5,000 families over the last 20 years, we’ve developed a special program to help homeowners make their move Fast, For Top Dollar and with the Least Hassle!

For the month of February, if you know anyone who’s wanting to sell their home, we will guarantee the sale of their present home or we'll buy it at a price acceptable to them. *

I know there’s some risk on my part to make such an incredible guarantee, but we are selling just about every home we list for the market value price - sometimes even more - so there is no reason for area homeowners or your friends and family to fret about selling right now. They will be in good hands with our team.

If you or anyone you know is considering making a move, I would like to offer them a FREE No Obligation to Move Consultation to discuss just how they can make their move, get what they want and do it with the least hassle.

We’re grateful we got to do business with you and I’m confident that your referrals will be grateful that you steered them in the right direction to help them get their home sold!

Another way we’re on a mission to help others is our tangible and meaningful support of young people who need it most.

We are on a mission to raise $50,000 for Give Kids the World Village. Give Kids the World Village is an 89 -acre whimsical nonprofit resort near Orlando that provides critically ill children and their families from your community and around the world with magical week-long wish vacations at no cost. From life’s simple pleasures to the stuff that dreams are made of, every wish family is treated to an all-inclusive experience including transportation, accommodations, donated theme park tickets, all meals and snacks, nightly entertainment, daily gifts and more. Since 1986, Give Kids the World has welcomed more than 188,00 families from all 50 states and 76 countries to laugh together, play together, and create priceless memories away from hospital stays and medicinal treatments. We are committed to donating a portion of our income from home sales to this very worthy cause.

YOUR REFERRALS HELP THE KIDs overcome sickness, pain and setbacks, and gives them the magical adventure of their dreams.

Who do you know considering buying or selling a home you could refer to my real estate sales team? When you refer someone who is buying or selling a home to my team, everyone wins: those you refer benefit from award winning real estate service and Give Kids the World will receive a donation that will make wishes possible at an accessible storybook home-away-from home, where the ice cream is as limitless as the opportunities for fun and adventure.

Just give me a call or pass my number on to anyone you know considering buying or selling. My number is 480-414-8902.

It’s important to help others when we can so I’m grateful to have this connection with each of you so you can pass on some information that can create meaningful change for so many others. Set an intention to help someone in your community this February.

With all my appreciation.
