What a first half of the year! Thanks for your many referrals! Because of you, Barbara enjoyed top Agent status in results at our 40+ agent office through May. During that time REMAX held top market share for Platte Co. and Clay Co.

Update on Michael, our oldest grandson; Michael continues to undergo chemo treatments. Progress is expected and good with the road predictably bumpy. Your prayers are appreciated.

The Market: Activity is brisk. The buyers are still out buying (See blog – May –www.barbandwayne.com) Normal to good conditions for Real Estate.

Since deciding to sell our family home and acreage we have been asked to share what we are doing to prepare our 7 bedroom, 5 ½ bath home for sale. So here goes: New windows, 2 new furnaces, new flooring (Carpet, vinyl, tile) professionally clean all non-replaced carpet, new paint outside, deck, Painted most inside walls and ceilings (Including unfinished basement), new door hardware and some new doors, all bathrooms get a makeover and the landscaping has been changed. Since the kitchen, dining and great room were recently redecorated, we will only paint trim and spruce up caulking. We are replacing all exterior lights and many interior lights to get more brightness. It has a newer roof so we are just re-caulking around all vent pipes and touching up the guttering. Finally, mountains of “de-clutter” after 25 years of gathering. Thanks to our son, Jim for hiring on to lead this project for 60 days and thanks to Barbara for her patience as she tries to maintain a home and business climate.

We look forward to a vigorous Real Estate environment for the future. Less time maintaining the “Kid Farm” will give us more time with you and our family.


God Bless our Men and Women serving in our Armed Forces.
