Paint Viagra
We recently had to dispose of a number of cans of paint for a client, and discovered that you can't just throw it in the trash, or dump it down the drain - it has to be "hard" first. Today we're sharing the special ingredient to make that so.Video Transcript
hello hello hello this is Diane and Randall bro here coming to you this afternoon from Prescott Arizona Arizona we are your local husband and wife team here happy to help you whether you’re buying or selling and something very interesting that we just learned and we were kind of laughing about it we want to share with you I don’t know if anybody knows about it it’s called Paint Viagra it’s a it’s a very important thing that every person should know yes also called paint hardener I think that’s the brand name paint that’s our paint Viagra now that’s don’t go into Home Depot and ask for pain there really is no such thing it’s not even a blue it’s not even a blue pill you know this is like this powder no how do you know I know because I I did the paint no I’m talking about the blue pill the blue pill and the red pill I don’t know what the red pill there’s a red pill and The Matrix which is probably Viagra and the red pill so the page Viagra that we’re talking about every now and then this is something in Prescott I learned you can’t just take your paint your old paint and bring it over to the dump it has to be hardened in the can and you really can’t just throw it away no no you cannot they’ll come and find you and everything else so I’m like okay well how does one do that and the reason why we had to figure this out is a lot of times when we’re uh either with a listing agent selling agent we sell a home they have all this paint has been uh collected they’re like help us get rid of it yeah sometimes you’ve got colors that are three you know three colors uh out of date you know they take them off that beautiful moth Peach yeah Peach is another one nobody wants that they’re like but how do I throw it away and we’re like well we’ll take care of it for you so we go to take care of it then we realize yeah what do we do with that yeah we had a client we were representing the buyer and he said can you get rid of all that paint and uh the seller was always long gone and you know listing ages anyway didn’t take care of it so and I said sure we before we even really kind of knew how to do right and that’s when we found out the dog said no unless it’s it’s hardened anyway there’s such a product at Home Depot Lowe’s called painting partner and it’s a powder you go and you get it and you pour you dump this into your gallon of paint yeah give it a little mix and give it a little mix and it will literally Harden it and dry it out in no time flat it’s you know it’s it’s actually pretty amazing then you can just put the lid on and go dump it at the dump or in your garbage can as long as it’s solid and it’s no longer liquid then they’ll accept it so we were all excited about this product um we got rid of like 12 cans of paint everything on the paint hardener because I know you bought way more than we needed and we ended up bringing I think I don’t know but I I over bought it because I wanted to make sure I had enough and turned a lot of it it’s not that expensive yeah I think we ended up paying maybe 30. yeah it’s really not a bunch of I was like over a dozen cans it’s amazing yeah so if anybody out there is facing a similar situation Shin like oh my gosh my dump only accepts paint cans once a year and you don’t want to wait a year go get yourself some paint Viagra slash hardener it’s great and be careful what you dip in there I mean it’s really just for paint okay that’s all it’s for not to be used internally or any other way or any other way don’t dip anything in there yeah you’re not supposed to no it’s not for that not for that it is truly just for paint okay so this is not medical advice so I don’t know if anybody else out there knew that it was news to us and we thought wow this is great and we thought we’d share with all of our clients you know especially like some of our sellers are like I don’t know how to get rid of all this paint we give them this advice they Harden their paint they throw it out that made me laugh anyway Harden your paint yeah yeah um older paint yes the harder it is to make it hard you need to use more I have heard that I I have heard that yeah I have heard that that is a problem yeah just buy a double pack so anyway it is just for paint only so we’re going to put that little uh yeah so that’s your uh that’s your tip of the day if you’re into tips the place to go is pickle411.com that is our free information site whether you’re a buyer seller or somewhere in between there’s something waiting especially for you that will Amaze this down entertain and inform there you go and it’s all at a very reasonable price that’s right Free People free it’s free free so look us up if you’re coming acrylic we’d love to take you around and show you what it’s all about here all right friends have a great rest of your day bye
Your House’s Name
When serious buyers tour a dozen houses in one day, it's easy for them to forget which one is which. In this episode we share a secret about how they cope with this and how to use it to make your house stand out from the crowd.Video Transcript
Diane and Randall bro here your local Prescott area real estate agent wife combo uh so far so good we’re marginally French correct he’s Cajun French 100 I am not but that’s okay um so we’re here to talk to you about something that’s kind of fun we love it we do it all the time you can’t help but not do it when you see so many houses when you take buyers out it’s hard to remember each and every house so you start to nickname the houses yeah so you could say the Moosehead house yeah the house has a Moosehead a Moosehead house yeah or crazy paint color the greenhouse The Pink House the uh the many cats house yeah sometimes there’s a lot of cats in there there’s a lot of cats cat memorabilia that’s right and you have to do this because I you know particularly if somebody is as we say in the shoot like they they have to find a house and they want to find the house as soon as possible we’ll show our 12 homes we might show Ted homes in one day your eyes will be crossing my eyes start to Nicknaming Your Home cross and you really have difficulty remembering wait what house was that so if we nickname it it comes back yeah so something fun that we like to tell our listeners is think of something positive about your home that we can nickname your home so we should say oh my gosh I had the greatest Jewel ever yeah it’s just like a little Jewel a little a little jewelry box it’s a jewel you know and then you know try Positivity to do something like a jewelry box or something put something out uh positive mind you we don’t want to have the stinky house yes the kitty cat smell house yeah yeah we’re looking for a positive positive it was pretty bad so think of something cute you know or put a decorative item out that that other buyers coming in will instantly identify and remember and be like you know that house that had that cute um Standing Out puppy dog pillow great yeah I know exactly which one you’re talking about so uh think of something positive and fun that people will see and say and remember later because it’s very important it is you know believe it or not and sellers don’t realize buyers realize because they’re experiencing it sellers don’t think of their house you know they tend to think of their house in isolation not part of a buyer tour of 12 other homes that’s right so that’s what you’re competing with and uh usually the buyers who are on who are seeing the most homes those are the ones who are definitely going to buy yeah so this is important along those lines as Clever Marketing well a very clever marketing attack just a little something do something really cute really uh special that sets your house apart from the others that people will remember yes like if you have beautiful flowers have a lot of flowers throughout the house if you have a beautiful garden you don’t have things oh remember that flower house believe me it works and people will remember and you know people are people aren’t always clever Marketing Ideas um so don’t be afraid to be obvious so let’s say you decide you’re going to leave a plate of cookies from time to time we’ll have a plate of cookies very nice I love that and everybody remembers remember the cookies that house the cookie house the cookie house so if you’re if you’re gonna do that and I’m just using this as an example you’re going to do cookies uh leave a note it’s always nice when we walk in and a seller has left the note for buyers please have some cookies or some cookies or water and say welcome to the cookie house yeah and then people will call you the cookie house so tell them what to call your home yeah and make it something good positive and um and it’s something kind Conclusion of fun yeah absolutely something fun and positive because positive we don’t want to call you the stinky house like I said or the poop house or the beige house you know beige house yes we want to something special so think about that if you’re getting ready to list your home if you list with us well we’ll tell you the same thing we’ll make it happen so just something fun we wanted to share with you we thought it would be kind of interesting something different um so tonight when

3% Interest?
If you're waiting for the days of 3% interest to return before you buy a house... we have some news for you. Tune in today to find out what you can expect, and how you can make the best decision possible.Video Transcript
good morning good morning good morning and hello hello hello to all beeps peeps of that’s right to all of our fellow pickle peeps out there happy to join you this morning and talk about the interest rates it makes you sad it makes me sad um sure do miss the dates uh you know when we had lower interest rates one more time we have any two and a half to 3 and half% it was a beautiful thing was a beautiful an unusual thing um honestly it was like getting free money it’s really not the most sound thing for E economy yeah and so we all got very very spoiled by that and we loved it but it’s really not the norm yeah um we did get used to it and we were adjusted to it but if you recall from the 70s and ‘ 8s interest rates used to be like 13 14% so we just were blessed for a little while there but it’s really not the norm no not at all and and and some would argue not even healthy to have a not really healthy for the the in terms of predicting where uh interest rates are going people will talk about the fed or they’ll talk about the inflation these are all things that people you know spend a whole lot more time studying that and actually get paid to do it uh we don’t do that uh but you know all those things are um uncertain one thing that you can hang your hat on is demographics demographics are unchangeable so we had Baby Boomers and then we had the what was it Gen X and then Gen Y is essentially uh the Millennials yeah the so we’ll talk about those three baby boomers are huge you know we had a bunch of baby boomers Gen X was the baby bust yep and in Millennials they call the echoboom yes so here’s what you need to know uh when people reach a certain age they start investing you know they’re kind of past raising the kids and all that and they’re reaching the maximum of their income potential they start investing money that is the supply of money oh is it yeah that’s that’s where investment dollars come from it comes from people investing right never knew and you got to have money to do that and Baby Boomers during the time we had very they had lots of money cuz most of them had not retired yet M okay mhm the people who were using the money those are people who are doing things like buying homes starter homes cars raising children education those were the Gen xers or the baby Busters okay that’s me that’s you yeah she’s a baby buster I’m a baby bu yeah I’m the youngest I’m in the the cohort the youngest of the uh the Baby Bloomers yeah yeah so what we had was we had a bunch of people supplying money and very few people demanding money so interest rates went down yes it’s it’s just that simple I mean all the other you know factors and everything it came down to demographics y yeah so that’s why it was so it’s so unusual to get demographic shifts historically unless you have you know a plague or something uh well we kind of did yeah we kind of did we kind of did we didn’t that was not a plague plagues kill you know third a third of the population had nothing like that but anyway well not good was not good but it it did not affect the interest rate No it sure right all right so moving forward what we have is the Gen xers the baby Busters are now entering the phase where they can invest and the Millennials the the echo Boomers they’re going to start borrowing so what that means is you’re going to have very high demand and very low Supply meanwhile the Baby Boomers they’re all probably let a three4 of us have reached 65 now something like that so most the rest are dead dead or retired you know but for the purpose of this conversation they’re not investing money they they if they invest their money they put it in very safe stuff you know T bills or something like something very conservative because they have a nest preserve it MH so we’re going into a phase now where you can anticipate very low Supply and very very high demand of money and that my friends means interest rates are going to stay hot yeah which is kind of a bummer yeah it’s a bummer and you’re going to have some movement you know short-term things are going to move the rate around but I think the days of 2 and a half% mortgage rates I don’t it’s going to be a long time till it comes back yeah I just don’t see how that’s going to happen but historically even 7% is still a good rate a good rate uh you know as I said when you compared earlier we had aunts and uncles that had had 16% interest rates so and again even don’t let it scare you even at 7% because hopefully with time things the rates will drop you can always refinance it’s not like you were tied to this for the rest of your life with this huge Rock tied around your neck yes not really I’m sure with time things will adjust refinance at that point yeah if you have to borrow let’s just say the g rate now is about 7 and a half I think let’s say you borrow at 7 and a half uh one of three things is going to happen the interest rate is going to stay the same well you you got the going rate interest rates are going to go up thank God you got the rate interest rates are going to go down you refinance yep you know but uh the idea that in you know 3 months it’s going to go down to 3% no get past it get on with your life none of us are young anymore you need to move on some of us are young young at heart yeah be young at heart and move on with your life don’t don’t let the the interest rates drive your life cuz you could sit there waiting for I mean don’t play that game just just grab Life by the horns get out there and do it don’t let this all don’t try to play The Guessing Game I’ll wait a year or two it it it may be worse so now is the time be decisive just accept it move forward get there and start your new chapter yeah absolutely don’t play that waiting game you’ll drive yourself crazy I’m already crazy with you know um this one I don’t need to worry about the rest of that baby buster can you believe that she Buster I believe it that’s our tip of the

Heat Emergency
Arizona's governor recently placed the entire state under a heat emergency. Watch this week to find out what that means and, more importantly, why this and other news items you might see, simply don't apply to Prescott.Video Transcript
hello hello hello hello happy to be coming to you live live recording this live Diane and Randall bro here in lovely mountain town at Prescott Arizona that’s us that’s right Mountainous Landscape you think mountain town you don’t think of Arizona but here we are yeah we are mountain town it is a lovely Mountain Town kind of like Flagstaff not quite as high as Flagstaff um but nothing like you ever thought you’d see in Arizona that’s right people think Arizona is a desert the whole state is a desert about half of it is really pretty mountainous and yes not so much no I guess they call us a high desert not cinnamon desert right right High Desert good low desert bad yeah so we’re here in the high desert we have four seasons um the governor recently declared a heat emergency in all of Arizona all of Arizona it really didn’t apply to us no I don’t know why she did that yeah at the time Heat Emergency of the heat emergency I think our high that day was 85. it was so when you hear this very alarming temperatures Etc yes it does exist down in Phoenix or down the hill as we say when you live up in Prescott I’m going down the hill down the hill which means or the Valley Phoenix they did have a heat emergency they were having quite intense temperatures yeah they broke records I guess that was for July yeah uh so they broke some records and they did they had some very treacherous um scary stuff scary stuff going on not here though it did not apply to us well it applied to us because the governor said it did but right but yeah technically not really so our temperatures may get perhaps in July in the high 90s yeah which we kind of look for because then that sets the monsoon pattern and creates the rains which we really love and want which we’re getting so right now Four Seasons so we can tolerate a few days of a little high 90 Heat so as long as it can bring on the montoons and when they come in the temperatures drop to the 70s it’s completely delightful yeah so uh when you hear these enormous High temps down in the valley it really is not us really don’t be scared by that yeah and it’s going to be piercing sometimes like you’ll be in Prescott watching the weather and you’re watching weather in Phoenix you know yes that is a good point yeah there’s something you should know we don’t have a local TV station here so all of our news that we see is coming from Phoenix so sometimes you’ll be sitting down there and listening to oh my gosh yeah yeah what’s going on did you hear that happen it’s not here it’s in Phoenix you have to kind of take it with it yeah same thing with crime same thing with crime yeah yeah my mother doesn’t seem to get that she watches the news oh I heard there was a murder right downtown like then in Phoenix keep that in mind if you’re watching the local news the quote local news it’s really Phoenix news so when they’re talking about those temperatures and things like that it’s really not Prescott proper yeah that’s right so when you hear heat emergency don’t equate it with Prescott even if the governor says it’s the whole state she’s a liar she’s a liar that’s a little strong I don’t think she thinks much about uh areas outside of Phoenix that’s a joke that’s a joke relax relax I’m not calling the governor a liar that’s the joke it’s just a joke I’m getting a little Punchy it’s been a long day it’s been a long week so anyway Local News we just don’t want you to get thrown by that and think that that applies to Prescott yeah it really doesn’t we have not been on any heat advisories heat warnings we haven’t been on any water restrictions none of that happens that stuff applies here okay so our Summer’s kind of over we’re in the month yes we’re already I’ve been walking in the morning it’s already getting a little nip in the end you can kind of see fall is on the way and here it is the end of August so it’s uh delightful yeah absolutely it’s very nice so when you hear heat emergency heat advisory water restrictions etc etc does not apply to fee uh that’s right so she’s alive you’re a liar I am a liar so anyway we just wanted to share that with you um in case you had any concerns uh don’t Transition to Fall be yeah so if you need any information about life in Prescott that’s our tip just try and take it straight tip of the day if you like tips we got plenty for you you go to our free information
