Last Wednesday (7/20) I met with the center director for North Metro Surgery Center. They specialize in orthopedic, gynecology, general surgery, podiatric, gastrointestinal, spine, ear, nose and throat, and eye procedures and services. They are a small portion of the 60,000 square foot building but require a ton of attention due […]

Last week I had to do the market surveys for this new property and compare them with our site’s current rates. It was interesting to see how two different properties and their comps can change so much by just moving across town. Shopping the competition was refreshing to see how other sites […]

On Friday of last week we had a very interesting situation take place. We had a resident come in saying that a little boy came up to her and asked her for some food because he said he hadn’t eaten all day. Upon hearing this, we went out and found […]

I have had a great stay down here in Texas. I have met a lot of great people and had the opportunity to see many new things. On the weekend I was able to head into Dallas and see the JFK museum, Holocaust museum, blue lives matter memorial, and even […]

This past week our property had several prospects come in for tours that said they were students in the area. All of them said their reason for liking our property was that it was close to their school. This made us think about how we could better target these students […]

Today, we are celebrating something pretty special for someone in our office. She has been with our company for 30 years, so today is a fun day and we are going out for a lunch to celebrate!

Today has been a very slow day in our office. We didn’t have any appointments, move in’s, or move out’s. We only had a few people walk in and ask about the property and showings. It’s been nice to be able to catch up on all of the work that […]

Today has been pretty slow in the office, we didn’t have any tours scheduled for the day and we only have one move-in happening. I prefer when we are busy because the time goes by much quicker. However, the slow days give me a chance to follow-up with prospects and […]
