As we all now know, the COVID-19 outbreak has impacted many of our local, national and global industries. Here at HARRELL, we’ve had to adapt to many things — from to shorter office hours to different ways of communication to changed ways of closing deals. We are making these circumstances work, but to say things have been “different” would prove to be accurate. Real estate as a whole is not stopping. “Although the coronavirus outbreak

Harrell brokered this transaction between the Buyer and Seller. “We completed this transaction (representing the Buyer and Seller) in Q4 of 2019.” Said Hunter Harrell Currently, the retail center is going through a full exterior / interior renovation (Q1
The Modern Civil War; Fought in the World of Digital Communication
The digital world can be a hostile one. Business communications can almost exclusively take place through digital platforms, which has not only increased our efficiency, but also our passive aggressive tendencies. Has anyone else noticed this? A majority of the time, I find we misinterpret what one another is trying to convey when a screen is in between us. I think the miscommunication comes from two things: First, there are times face-to-face communication is required
Fixer Upper Airbnbs: The Waco Experience
Waco was just named 2018’s #2 travel destination by TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice awards for Destinations on the Rise. To say I was expecting my hometown to make this list would be a lie, but I am glad the 254 is getting recognized for its contagious charm. Some controversy has been conceived from Waco’s newly found spotlight, though. With more and more visitors coming to Waco, many drawn here by our neighbors at Magnolia Market, more
My Experience on House Hunters
Any House Hunter Fans out there? I wouldn’t say I’m an “avid” watcher by any means, but as a real estate agent, it’s definitely entertaining— Especially since I have experienced the hunt first hand. Have you caught my feature on House Hunters? On season 123 (Talk about a series-binge) episode 9, I helped my buddy, Colby Mann, find the perfect “party pad”— and you thought Chip and Jo were the only HGTV stars in Waco!
Don’t Drink and…. Sell?
As the ol’ saying goes; Real Estate has it’s ups and downs. And that is exactly what makes it addicting, so I guess you could say I am a real estate junkie. As a real estate agent you must be able to ride the high of getting a deal going and then stay composed if that deal falls apart— There’s no time to crash and burn, here. The market changes quickly and you can go
The Good Ole’ Yellow Pad
The key to staying sane while running your own business Let’s be honest, life is hectic, especially in my line of work. So how do you cope when you feel like you’ve been overloaded and buried under a pile of to-dos? Some may say “there’s an app for that”, but I have tried many different productivity apps and even the reminders function on the iPhone, and none of them could win back my sanity like
Proving Waco is a Wonderland, Once Again: Union Hall
Have you heard about this brick-and-mortar version of an open-aired European market coming to Waco? This concept isn’t new, but it is really cool! Recently while traveling in California for business, I stopped for the night in Los Angeles. There I discovered Grand Central Market. This market has been a downtown landmark since 1917, and brings together the cuisines and cultures of LA. From crazy concepts like Eggslut, where it’s all about eggs; to PBJ.LA the gourmet peanut butter and
