Unfortunately, no owner was able to be located, so GSROC has promised to help find this loving girl a wonderful home. Rose is great with other dogs and enjoys the company of dog-savvy children. She’s not too sure about cats, though. Rose is a huge snuggle who would love nothing more than to curl up next to her people. Is Rose your new best friend?

brianbogs It’s not 2008! The market might be slow with more inventory, increased days on market and tough negotiations but we aren’t heading to another 2008. In 2008 homeowners were upside down other mortgage. They owed more than their home was worth. That’s not the case today. Homeowners today have built 47 Trillion Dollars of equity. #askbrian #askbriantheseries #realestatetips #realestate

brianbogs What’s the one☝️thing you need to do as a seller before listing your home 🏠. CLEAN!!🧼 🧹 It’s sounds simple but it’s not. Most of us clean our home or have it cleaned and it looks pretty good. But not when you’re selling. You need to clean everything like it’s never been cleaned before and from what I have seen it hasn’t. What should you clean? 1. Baseboards (paint sometimes too) 2. Return air vents 3. Light Bulbs & Light Fixtures inside and outside (yes light bulbs collect dust) 4. Trash cans and trash drawer 5. Fridge/Freezer-INSIDE and on TOP 6. Range Hood-Filters/Greasy sticky stuff 7. Shower Heads 8. Light switches/Cover plates 9. Blinds 10. Ceiling Fans It’s tedious but it makes a difference on a buyers perspective on how the home is maintained. #askbrian #askbriantheseries #homesellingtips #listingagent #homestaging #minimizetomaximize

brianbogs How’s the market? Is it spooky? That’s the question I have been asked 1,000’s of times in my 20+ years of selling real estate. Well the first one, not the spooky part. Often times it’s a pretty easy answer but the last few years the most common answer I give is “it’s weird”. There are such strong differences in the type of market it is based on price point, type of home and area of the home. Condo inventory is up but overall inventory is trending down. That’s normal this time of the year as most people don’t put their home on the market during the holidays if they can avoid it. This time of year also brings lower buyer demand again due to the holidays. Rates are trending down so we will see if that helps push buyer demand up above what we normally see this time of year. #askbrian #askbriantheseries #marketupdate #realestatetips #listingagent #buyersagent #homeshopping

brianbogs Is the privacy you get from backing a busy street worth dealing with the noise? Most often it isn’t for me but there are exceptions. Is the yard bigger than others? Is there a stoplight behind the home? Is the price reflected in a home that backs a street? Is there a view? It should never be a solid NO I don’t want to see any homes that back. We have to take in all these factors and more to truly understand if it’s worth it. Some of the best deals though in the winter months are from homes that back a busy street. Often times they are overlooked, overpriced to start and have sat on the market with increased days on market. Would you buy a home that backs a busy street? #askbrian #askbriantheseries #homeshopping #realestate #brianbogs

brianbogs Happy Foster Friday Meet Oliver and Marvin, two sweet senior boys looking for a home together! They are both around 8 years old, and lost their home at no fault of their own. These boys LOVE going for walks, they strut down the boulevard with huge smiles on their faces! We have really enjoyed watching their personalities bloom as they’ve become more comfortable at the shelter. They deserve a great home, where they will get all of the love and belly rubs they can handle!

brianbogs 🧹 Minimize to Maximize that’s my #1 rule when selling This is a common statement I use when talking with sellers. Buyers can see past chaos in a garage. But in the kitchen, bathrooms, or bedrooms? Not a chance! Less stuff = more perceived space = higher offers. My sellers get a room by room analysis and checklist of items we need to have moved, removed or changed prior to taking photos and having buyers view the home. Also please change the air filters. 😂 You should change them twice a year and I’m tired of hearing from the inspector that the air filter hasn’t been changed in years! 😂 #Listingprep #minimizetomaximize #brianbogs #askbriantheseries #askbrian #homesellingtips

brianbogs Happy 70th to my mom 🎉 Proof that good genes, strong coffee and a healthy dose of stubbornness can take you pretty far in life. Love you Mom, thanks for everything you have done for me, @mollybogs Brooks and CJ! We Love you! ❤️ #happybirthdaymom #70andstrong #family #legendstatus

brianbogs This is what it’s like trying to put a 6 year old to bed. Every day is a new adventure with our two. I’m sure many of you can relate to this same scenario. It’s so fun to see the different phases they both go through. I can’t tell you how many times @mollybogs and I have thought WOW!! Sometimes it’s wow for holy S@#*T that was a long day. But mostly it’s about how amazing they are, how much energy, love and laughter they bring to every situation. We are truly blessed with these two and how they continue to keep up grounded, laughing and very busy!

brianbogs Everyone talks about square footage — but no one talks about sunlight or flow. The way your home is oriented can change everything: how bright it feels, how warm it gets, and how you actually live in it. ☀️ As I have told others, you can’t fix bad sunlight with throw pillows. Orientation and layout matter more than square footage ever will. Because 2,500 sq ft doesn’t mean much if 800 of it is dark, awkward, or never used. Tag someone who’s home shopping right now — they’ll thank you later. 👇🏻 #askbrian #askbriantheseries #brianbogsrealestate #homebuyingtips #realestateadvice #realestatehumor #househuntingtips #homebuyingadvice #realestatetips
