Buyers decide in the first eight seconds of seeing a home if they're interested in buying it. Get out of your car, walk in their shoes and see what they see within the first eight seconds.

The most influential factor in selling a home is always price. Don't build 'wiggle room' into the asking price. There's a price war out there and you have to win it from the get-go.

The worst that could happen is I lose my company and go back to being a waitress. I don't think money's a great aspiration for a lot of people that succeed. They they have other motivations that turn them on. And money was not one of mine.

When you feel stuck and can't seem to move ahead, always remember that you don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going!

In business, you're the Chief Salesman. Create a sense of demand, rather than waiting to have demand.

No loan is free. The costs are in your loan somewhere, maybe rolled into the amount to be refinanced or even coming at a higher interest rate.

If you have an idea, immediately move on it. To start that fire and get it burning immediately...it's everything.
