The power of voting can be a lot greater than you think, especially when you do it with your feet. In this episode, we discuss the latest trend sweeping the nation: the Great Reshuffling - and why you might consider hopping aboard.
good afternoon good afternoon folks in brisket arizona that’s right this is diane and randall grove and i’m the randall he’s the randall we are here in the lovely town of prescott arizona loving life loving our little business here and loving to reach uh to you guys and chat with you about uh different topics different topics so today we’re going to talk about a new phenomenon that’s sweeping the country called voting with your feet yes it’s more than one way to vote yeah if you can’t get the result that you want you can always vote with your feet so that was a quote that actually i think it was lenin uh people asked you know did the people uh want the czar or the did the people want to end the war this is world war one you know when did the people vote uh when did the soldiers vote that they should end the war and he said they voted with their feet meaning that they had all retreated from the front and you know right just gave up the fight and uh that’s a term that’s kind of bandied about quite a bit the idea of voting with you voting with your fee and we see it all the time as agents here uh we represent a lot of buyers uh they’re coming from california washington oregon even some new jersey folks yeah and um they are voting with their feet uh they are not happy with things that are occurring in their home states and they are retired and they’re like you know what we have a luxury now and the ability to vote with our feet uh we don’t have to put up with it anymore we don’t uh and we want to move on yeah and so a lot of them are coming here to prescott yeah a lot of them are a lot of them are it’s you know it’s the last resort uh you know it’s in communist countries like cuba and east germany you know they’ll build a wall to keep people from voting with their feet because they know their people are unhappy and uh so far there’s no place in the united states that i know of that forces you to stay where you are although california tried they were trying to tax people who are leaving you know and i can’t imagine that that’s gonna stick but uh but at this point in time you can still vote with your feet and the thing about it about voting with your fee is you get instant results if you elect your candidate it’s gonna take a while before your candidates able to bring you the changes that you want but when you vote for your feet you go to some place where things are happening the way that you want them to it’s right instantaneously you get immediate satisfaction you get immediate results um depending on where you go of course yeah um and so we get a lot of people who are like i’m moving on i can’t change what’s occurring in my state i sure have tried i’ve tried to hang in there as long as i can and hoping that there might be a change and now that they’re retired they have the freedom and the wherewithal they’re not tied to a job or career or kids in school yeah and so we are seeing it more and more that people are voting with their feet and they’re going where they feel uh with like-minded people yeah and um so it’s been an interesting thing to watch uh unfold and develop yeah and so we say it a lot a lot uh and it’s a phenomenon that’s happening really all over the country uh there’s a lot of new flux uh people call it the the the great reselection the great reset i forget that i don’t know yeah but it’s like the covet thing and it’s like everyone is sort of rethinking what they want to do with their lives where they want to spend their lives covered has changed a lot of things yeah it’s changed the path for a lot of people reshuffling i’m sorry the great reshuffling i knew it would come to you yes it always does but it is interesting to see a lot of people um have the effects of cobit and they realize hey you know i was gonna retire in five years um but now i actually can live and work wherever i want yeah because people started working remotely yes so it’s enabled them to move up their plans to move to a different state yeah hopefully prescott and it’s changed their life plan and that’s all because of covet they were like we have to work at home we’re going to figure this out and once it was figured out people realized well hell i can keep doing this nothing nothing to stop why do i need to stay here i can move where i want to move ahead of retirement i don’t have to wait until i retire right which is kind of cool yeah and for those who are kind of on the other side of the the the work period you know their work careers and looking at retirement you know you reach a certain age you realize that the situation is not going to be fixed on your watch you’re just not going to live that long you know you don’t have 40 years ago that’s great yeah i mean when you’re in your 20s it’s easier to be optimistic you want to be part of the solution you want to affect change you make the world a better place you get to be an old man it’s like ah you know i just i’m tired of fighting yeah all i’m looking for is peace i want peace happiness peace and i want my money to last until i die [Laughter] that’s all you’re looking for when you retire like hey i’m done i just want to chill out and have some fun yeah definitely so anyway if you were thinking about voting with your feet particularly if you’re a vote for prescott yeah and you’re going to want to contact the people of you

Buyers are often unaware that there are many things that sellers and their agents do not have to divulge to you… and questions you may have that even your own agent is not allowed to answer.
In this episode we reveal what these things are and where you can find the answers you need.
good morning
good morning good morning
pickle peeps
diane and randall bro here um we are
here to really give you um
what do you call it dianne’s rendition
of mr rogers
well um that’s that that’s not mr rogers
it’s kind of like mr rogers
it’s just i sing a lot in the morning
she does she’s a morning singer
yeah easily identified
you don’t need one of those apps to tell
you you know what bird is that
no you’re pretty easy that’s right it’s
me don’t have a good
to sing it to the pugs don’t have a good
voice but i sure try
yeah she does i like to sing with a
happy heart happy heart
not always happy at least she’s that way
in the morning
i i try to start off in a position to
start off on a positive and positive
thing
um today though we are talking about
something pretty important pretty
serious
um that you should know when
you are coming in town every time we
meet people for the first time
we always have them uh sign off that
they have received
a buyer’s advisory guide because we
actually because we have to
yeah correct it’s a state thing and it
is put it’s a document that’s made by
the state
right and we have to give you a copy of
that
and we have to be able to demonstrate or
prove
that all of our buyers have had it and
you received it
you know they’ll come inside we could be
on it mr and mrs jones show me where
they’ve signed up so one of your papers
when we meet is you
sign off saying yes thank you i did
receive the buyer’s advisory guide
and you may ask what is the buyer’s
advisory guide we give it to you you put
it in your folder
don’t ever lose that it is so important
it is a huge
wealth of information something you may
not know about realtors and people just
kind of take it for granted that you
should be able to tell us that
we are not necessary we are not allowed
to discuss uh politics or what the
politics of the town are
religion family whether this is a family
everything they got a lot of a lot of
things
you really kind of have to do your due
diligence
on your own because there are things
that
we can’t talk about right there are
regulations that you know keep us from
doing that
and we got to be really careful about
things like that because there are
people out there that will try to sue
you
purposely trap you and then turn around
and sue you
so it’s not all about just achieving
fair housing it’s about avoiding
litigation
right for people who are out there to
get you so it’s
well that’s a little heavy yeah it’s a
little bit i don’t think it’s that so
you know
no it’s not that prevalent but it does
happen we’re under obligation
uh we have to follow fair it is you have
no idea
fair housing practices yeah and we are
very very strict about that
so there are a lot of things too that uh
sellers are not
obligated to tell tell us tell you
either right
and one of these and you guys may not
believe it changes state by state that’s
another thing you should realize
real estate laws change state by state
in the state of arizona
we as agents and the seller we do not
have to disclose
if a murder happened in a home yeah or
someone died
if there was a suicide if um
you know someone was sick with hiv or
aids
we do not have to nor does the seller
have to disclose that our state does not
make that a mandatory
disclosure sex offenders sex offenders
that’s up to you
right it’s very important for you as the
buyer
to take advantage of that buyer’s guide
and do your due diligence
yeah that is your time to do your
homework your 10
or 15 day inspection period is not about
just getting the home inspected it’s not
about just getting a termite inspection
it is very much about those things but
also
doing this extra homework looking up
crime rates
looking up if there’s a sex offender
looking up if you’re being
if your neighborhood is next door to a
super fund
site uh looking up all those important
things that’s also part of your due
diligence
and you have to do that during your
inspection period and you have the lace
inside the buyer
advisory that will send you to online
places where you can look those
absolutely it’s filled all kinds of
websites
super easy you know you can find
whatever you need and look it up
and it will answer all of those
questions that you may be having
but that we sometimes are precluded from
discussing you know what i mean as as
licensed
agents so it’s very important uh
do your due diligence especially during
your
inspection period that’s what that time
is to be spent doing
right talking about your neighborhood
your neighborhood i’ve been meaning to
upload
