What were YOU doing at 6:30 AM this morning?

Well. I was distributing the latest issue of my newsletter to homes in Woodbridge.

"Really?", you probably are asking, "Shouldn't you still be in your PJs at that early hour?", you want to know...

Well, sure I could ask my kids to get some of their friends together and send them off on their skateboards, to do some minimum-wage work, but I prefer to do my own "farming", and this is ONE of the reasons why: (Watch the short video I took below.)


Look at this gorgeous scene I came across when I came to the end of Quiet Moon, in Landing I. I would have totally missed it had I still been in my PJs at home! Isn't Woodbridge South Lake amazing?

Other reasons are:

FIRSTLY, I meet and chat to residents, (who ALSO aren't in their PJs!), as they are walking their dogs, having their early-morning walk or jog, or getting into their cars on their way to the gym or work.

SECONDLY, I see which homes are having renovations done, and make a mental note to contact the homeowner, in case they are preparing their home for sale or lease.

THIRDLY, I look out for homes that have unkempt yards and have solicitors' flyers piling up at their front doors, and contact the owners later in case they need advise about whether to sell or lease the home, or if they want to learn about loan modifications, short sales and foreclosures :(

FINALLY, (and perhaps I should have made this number ONE), I don't get enough exercise. These morning sessions are a really good cardio workout, and it's great to multi-task and get my blood pumping while I do a bit of real estate work!

If you're never up & about before sunrise, I strongly recommend you give it a try. Sunrise in Irvine is at 6:41 AM tomorrow.......
