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 hundreds of families over the last 24 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 dogs who need it most.
Helping Dogs in Need
Another way we’re making a difference is by supporting young dogs who need help the most. We’re on a mission to raise $10,000 for Big Dog Ranch Rescue, an incredible organization that has saved over 50,000 dogs since its founding in 2008. Big Dog Ranch Rescue is the largest cage-free, no-kill dog rescue in America. They save dogs from abuse and euthanasia, rehabilitate them, and help them find loving forever homes. Some of these dogs go on to serve in law enforcement, pet therapy, or as support animals for the elderly. The organization relies entirely on grants, donations, and the generosity of the community.Here’s where you can help:
If you know someone looking to buy or sell a home, please refer them to our team. Not only will they receive award-winning service, but a portion of the income we earn from each referral will go directly to Big Dog Ranch Rescue. To refer someone, just share this message, give me a call or pass along my number: 561-254- 2254.
