Letter From Your GLAR President - Andrew Pruitt
When watching your favorite television program this month, you may catch a
commercial created by the National Association of Realtors® to help the public
understand the honesty and integrity that Realtors® bring to every transaction.
This commercial is part of a larger campaign, now in its ninth year, to tell the
public about the benefits of working with a Realtor®.

Paul Odgen
The National Association of Realtors® wants the public to know that a Realtor®
is someone they can trust, and is held to a higher standard than other real estate
professionals. As a Realtor®, you subscribe to a strict Code of Ethics. The Code
of Ethics predates real estate license laws, and when these laws were established,
many were based on the standards set in the Realtor® Code of Ethics.
Few, if any, other professional organizations in the nation have put in place such
rigorous ethics for their members as we have done. Be proud of these standards
and embrace them in your day-to-day real estate activities.
Showing a Property…Do You Call First??
In today’s busy market, it is easy to forget day to day professional courtesies you
should extend to buyers, sellers and other Realtors®. While the Code of Ethics
and Standards of Practice of the National Association establish ethical standards
governing the professional conduct of Realtors®, it does not address simple
issues of courtesy or etiquette.
One very important courtesy, many times
overlooked, is calling the listing agent to request
an appointment to show property to your
client(s). If a lockbox is being used on the
property, you STILL need to call the listing
agent prior to a showing. Remember, the
seller’s have a right to know when someone
is going to be looking at their property. You should also
call if you are delayed or must cancel an appointment or showing. Show you are
a true professional by using these common courtesies.

Letter From Your MSI President - Paul Ogden
What’s the old saying about spring has sprung.? Summer is here and it’s a great
time to be a Realtor®. At the expense of redundancy for some of our more astute
and techie members, I thought it was worth a quick visit to two features of List-It.

OPEN HOUSES
List-It is a great platform to not only search for, but to advertise your upcoming
Open Houses. Under Search -> go on the left column to Pro- Search -> click on
Caravan / Open House and a box pops up asking what dates and times you’re
looking for. What a wonderful tool that you can use to show value to your buyers
by providing the Open House schedule for the upcoming weekend. From the
Seller side, this provides more exposure and should help getting more buyers
through your property.
CARAVANS
Thursdays are Caravan Day. Want to stay on top of the market and see what’s out
there? Again, as above go to Pro-Search and look up Caravans for specific dates.
Got a slow listing, or want to get more exposure and traffic ? Try setting it up on
a caravan for a week or so and then look at the results. This is also a way to show
your value to your seller.
These are ways to work smart, and make the most of your valuable time as well
as the best use of that valuable gasoline we’re all taking about. As always the MSI
Board welcomes your feedback. Please let us hear from you. Have a safe and
prosperous summer.

Promote Pool Safety
Drowning remains the leading cause
of unintentional injury-related death
among children ages 1 to 4, and the
second leading cause among children
ages 14 and under, according to
Safe Kids Louisville. More than half
of childhood drownings occur in a
child’s home pool and one-third at
the homes of friends and relatives.
To help decrease the number of
drownings in residential pools, hot
tubs and spas, GLAR has teamed
up with Safe Kids to offer water
safety packets to 500 home buyers
this year. These packets, which will
be distributed by you to your buyers
of homes with pools, hot tubs, spas
or other water features, contain a
letter from Safe Kids explaining
the responsibilities that come with
owning a home with a pool and
the importance of water safety, a
brochure with water safety tips and a
“Water Watcher” tags that adults can
use to identify a person to supervise
children playing in and around water
at social gatherings. If you have
client who is purchasing a home with
a pool, stop by the GLAR Realtor®
Store to pick up a packet for them.
