InHouse Spring 2020

“Your Success is not limited by the economy; it’s only limited by the people you know and the amount of interest you can generate in your products and services.”

Grant Cardone is a well-known business speaker and sales guru.  Not too long ago I was meeting with some of my business colleagues and we were discussing how easy it has become for people to just give up.   It reminded me of one of his books, “If You’re Not First, Your Last”.   In his book, Grant shares the specific thought processes and actions necessary to move from where you are right now to the front of your field.  Regardless of the product or service you sell. Grant draws on his experiences of getting through three recessions, emerging stronger, more capable, and more profitable after each one.

Each chapter builds on the next, encouraging the reader to follow this step-by-step approach of thinking and acting to help the reader achieve their goals.

Advance and Conquer

Right from the beginning Grant makes it clear that there are four responses (and attitudes) made by people when the economy or things take a turn for the worst in their lives. I love the fourth response, advance and conquer, because it illustrates the mindset and actions that people who dominate their field make on a consistent basis. The advance and conquer approach is about being the absolute best at what you do regardless of the external situation.

It is about going out into the marketplace and doing massive amounts of activity above and beyond what is considered normal. For example: planning your day so effectively that you’re able to double or triple your calls. Or creating a strategy that enables you to follow up each one with an email to get at least two touch points with each client per day.

One extreme way to look at the advance and conquer mindset is to ask yourself “how would I think, move, act and speak differently if I had 24 hours left to live unless I closed a sale by the end of the day?” There would probably be a much greater sense of urgency than if you thought you had 20 years left to live.

Insight #1

Own your mind and what you believe

“Change your thought process. Drop the arrogance, your old beliefs, and any limitations on what you are willing to do and get going on producing your economy.”

Having the right thought process is critical for success. In sales, business and life we are governed by a certain set of rules that guide how we think and act. Often these are negative and are rules that enforce what we should not do more than what we should. For example: Am I calling this client too much? Am I justified in asking for a referral? What will the client think if I don’t negotiate on price? Thoughts like these paralyze you from acting and being successful.

Grant suggests that most of what we worry about tends not to happen, so why waste time worrying about it when that time can be spent using your mind on everything you can do to change the situation? If you are going to advance and conquer you must eliminate all the worry, doubt and fear of negative consequences that could happen if you act. This is not to say you should pretend that everything is okay when you do have reason to worry. Be encouraged to build positive thinking muscles, so you are better equipped to handle challenges.

Insight #2

Perform at your highest level always

“Make it clear to the world every day that you have things to do and people to see.”

In order to get the most out of The Big Idea and Gem #1, it is necessary to be deliberate about the actions that you will take each day and focus your thoughts into doing everything you can to complete them. I have found that the most successful times in my life were when I got the most done and felt best about myself. Specifically when I actively took control of my mind by scheduling the most important actions that needed to be done that day and doing everything I could to complete them. Rather than leaving my day to chance.

Grant suggests that people don’t do things like watch TV, take long lunches or gossip, worry about what others think because they are lazy, but rather because they lack a commitment to a power schedule. When you have other places you must be and don’t have time for these things, then you just don’t do them. A good way to start is by asking yourself these questions:

1. a) What time will you go to bed at night and what time you will get up?
2. b) What wasteful actions am I currently involved in?
3. c) How do I spend my weekends?
4. d) How am I spending my time after work?
5. e) Are these activities adding to my confidence and the way I feel about myself or are they holding me back?

This book shows you how to take everything you already have and direct it into profit through methods Grant has used himself and found to be successful  Here are a few key insights that you need to wake up with everyday so you can be first!

KEY INSIGHTS:

• Being first to the market is not as important as being number one in your category.
• You don’t necessarily have to be the company introducing a product to be the best choice in the buyer’s mind.
• If you aren’t number one in your category or field, then you are in a precarious and dangerous situation.
• The only way to flourish during an economic downturn is to take lots of unreasonable actions in order to dominate.
• The quitters are basically scavengers who depend on “good” economies to provide enough cash to fund their lifestyles.
• Remember: People like to buy and do business with people they know and like.
• Any attention is better than no attention.
• Contacts turn into contracts, and the more contacts, the more contracts.
• Warning: Reactivating past clients must be approached from a standpoint of offering service and taking interest in the client.
• If you go out and start making things happen, something will happen.
• According to the study, 80 percent of sales to businesses are made on the fifth sales call, but only 10 percent of salespeople call beyond three times.
• Price is never the way to create a wow experience.
• The wow moment occurs when you present the product, let customers know how it can solve their problems, and figure out how it makes them feel as well as how you present, service, and deliver that experience.
• Selling on price is an indication of a weak-minded and poorly trained individual or organization.
• Money will find what people perceive as value; not the lowest price.
• You need clients more than they need you in any economy.
• Act like your life depends on every transaction, every moment of every day.
• The person who willingly swings the bat has a better chance at success than the person who refuses to swing.
• After all, there is no shortage of money on Earth; there is a shortage of planning, motivation, courage, action, and follow-through.
• Selling is to an organization what food, water, and oxygen are to the body.
• Remember the rule of no. Whenever you say no to something in life, there is usually a lack of know.

PRACTICAL APPLICATION:

• Quit being reasonable.
• Don’t settle with just “getting by.”
• You need to wake up every day and want to be first.
• Do not rely solely on e-mail or snail mail for this venture without first getting in touch via phone or personal visit.
• Advance and conquer; don’t retreat and contract.
• Think solutions and you will find many!
• Get uncomfortable. The discomforts you experience now may well guarantee that you’ll be comfortable in the future.

Who Cares if the Ground Hog got it right, Spring is STILL Coming. I promise.

Spring is Springing and Ground Hog did not see his shadows!  Yay!  I just came inside from shooting a video outside and WOW!  It’s nice out!  Yes, I realize that when you get this and read it that it could be cold and rainy, but those cold days are just about over.  Everyone loves Spring, primarily because it means… summer is near!

For many across this great country though, it’s still COLD, grey, and snowy! One thing is for sure, this winter season is coming to an end.  It does every year without fail.

Just like the weather seasons come and go, so do the seasons of life. I just turned 61, my husband is retired and my dog naps all day. Are you with me when I say that these seasons seem to come and go faster and faster as well as the time? My husband reminded me last night we have shared 19 of our birthdays together.

Some of life’s seasons will be HOT and others will be COLD, some high and some low. The lows we want to move by quickly, the highs we want to stay in forever. But it’s the low points, those tough times, that I have learned the most from. All of the experiences through these seasons make me who I am.

So, what does this have to do with you and real estate?

Spring is a time of action, a heating up of the desire for a new place to call home for many.  Maybe you or someone you know is right now looking or considering it.  That’s great!  We are here to help with that.  Whether it be a list of the 10 best buys matching home buying criteria or delivering top dollar on a home sale along with our written guarantee of the asking price, our award-winning SYSTEM and TEAM are eager to help.

Unfortunately, there are some that will have a Springtime they would much rather forget.

With all the beauty this Spring time brings, there is also the ugly for some. Rotary Club of Concord is working in Honduras to build bathrooms for local schools.  Most students in America are drinking fresh water and playing outside on the school yard. While students in Honduras are not attending school from sicknesses due to the lack of clean water and sanitary bathrooms.  For them and their families, Spring time is the furthest thing from their mind. Don’t get me wrong, these families long to see their kids out in the yard playing or riding their bikes – but for now, they are praying for help.

 Your Referrals Help Continue the Life Changing Work by Rotary Club of Concord!

Through our Go Serve Big mission statement we are on a quest to raise $10,000 for ROTARY CLUB OF CONCORD! For 40 years, Rotary Club of Concord has established itself as one of the Bay Area’s respected servant leaders who have donated tens of thousands of dollars to local needs as well as international projects.

Whether it’s providing food for the struggling and hungry through its many food pantries, or providing sanitary water and bathrooms to communities that need them,

to helping refugees try to get back on their feet, to ridding the world of Polio, to empowering people to make a change, to teaching people about medicine and hygiene, to connecting communities and making positive change in the world, Rotary leads the way in restoring lives one person and one community at a time.

As a non-profit, Rotary Club of Concord depends on Sponsorship and Donations to continue its leading-edge service. We proudly donate a portion of our income from real estate sales to Rotary to help them continue serving the needs of those who most need it in our community! 

SO, YOUR REFERRALS REALLY DO HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS WHO NEED HELP THE MOST!

InHouse Winter 2020 – 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Direction, Not Intention, Determines Destination!

Not too long ago I heard one of my favorite leaders say these words: “Direction, not intention, determines your destination”.  That stuck with me.  I don’t know about you but seems daily I battle keeping my mind and feet on a path toward productivity vs just activity.  You may have heard me say in past newsletters that Your Routine = Your Results.  For me to ensure the right direction of being productive and valuing others each day I need to examine my habits.  As you know, we can create and establish effective and productive habits but also develop bad habits.

So, as I began working on HOW to better help myself, my team and you as we head in to a new year, I began by looking at MY habits.  It is amazing how you can start out with a great routine of good habits but over time – drift.  To hedge against that, I looked back at the habits of the most effective people.

You may or may not have ever read Stephen Covey’s best-selling book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, if not, you should get a copy and read it.  If you have, it could be time for a refresher… depending on whether you are happy with your direction or concerned your current path may not 100% end at your desired destination in life.

In the book, Covey presents an approach to being effective in attaining goals by aligning oneself to what he calls “true north” principles based on a character ethic that he presents as universal and timeless.  Most people believe they have good ethics, but again, if the outcomes or results we are getting from our daily routines are NOT what we want… we must realize something isn’t quite right.  How effective are you at obtaining desired results?

Effectiveness is the balance of obtaining desirable results with caring for that which produces those results. Covey illustrates this by referring to the fable of the goose that laid the golden eggs. He further claims that effectiveness can be expressed in terms of the P/PC ratio, where P refers to getting desired results and PC is caring for that which produces the results.

Covey promotes what he labels “the character ethic”: aligning one’s values with so-called universal and timeless principles. In doing this, Covey is deliberately and mindfully separating principles and values. He sees principles as external natural laws, while values remain internal and subjective. Our values govern our behavior, while principles ultimately determine the consequences. To better demonstrate this, Mr. Covey presents his teachings in a series of habits, manifesting as a progression from dependence through independence on to interdependence.  Bottom line… Daily habits that = desired results and then some.

However, as they say, old habits are hard to break, so the first step is to understand where success really starts:  how you think.  How much time do you sit and just – think? Really analyze, even meditate on where you are and where you want to go?  Tough to break a habit without knowing about it or understanding how/why you do it.

My first step to a better 2020 is to bridge the gap between knowing and doing.  In order to do that, let’s begin with what Covey introduces as the Maturity Continuum. These are three successive stages of increasing maturity: dependence, independence, and interdependence. At birth, everybody is dependent, and characteristics of dependence may linger; this is the first and lowest stage of maturity.

Dependence means you need others to get what you want. All of us began life as an infant, depending on others for nurturing and sustenance. I may be intellectually dependent on other people’s thinking; I may be emotionally dependent on other people’s affirmation and validation of me. Dependence is the attitude of “you”: you take care of me… or you don’t come through and I blame you for the result.

Independence means you are pretty much free from the external influence [and] support of others. … Independence is the attitude of “I”. … It is the avowed goal of many individuals, and many social movements, to enthrone independence as the highest level of achievement, but it is not the ultimate goal in effective living. There is a far more mature and more advanced level.

The third and highest level in the Maturity Continuum is interdependence. … We live in an interdependent reality. Interdependence is essential for good leaders; good team players; a successful marriage or family life; in organizations; in relationships. Interdependence is the attitude of “we”: we can co-operate; we can be a team; we can combine our talents; we can value each other.

Each of the first three habits in The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People is intended to help achieve independence. The next three habits are intended to help achieve interdependence. The final, seventh habit is intended to help maintain these achievements.

I am committing here and now, as you read this, to BETTER more effective habits! Those that help me be more productive and better at delivering value to others (like you).  Thankfully, there is a road map to follow: the 7 habits road map.  Here is a summary of my intended habits.  Feel free to call me out if you see me violating any of these.

The First Three Habits surround moving from dependence to independence (i.e., self-mastery):

1 – Be proactive.

Talks about the concept of Circle of Influence and Circle of Concern. Work from the center of your influence and constantly work to expand it. Don’t sit and wait in a reactive mode, waiting for problems to happen (Circle of Concern) before acting. Be mindful of WHO I associate with, WHAT I watch and read.

2 – Begin with the end in mind.

Envision what you want in the future, so you can work and plan towards it. Understand how people make decisions in their life. To be effective you need to act based on principles and constantly review your mission statement. Are you – right now – who you want to be? What do I have to say about myself? How do you want to be remembered? If habit 1 advises to change your life to act and be proactive, habit 2 advises that you are the programmer! Grow and stay humble. All things are created twice. Before we act, we should act in our minds first, before we create something we measure twice. this is what the principle is about, do not just act, think first, is this how I want it to go and are these the correct consequences.

3 – Put first things first

There exists a matrix of importance vs urgency used in deciding where to invest efforts. I must understand the difference between leadership and management. Leadership in the outside world begins with personal vision and personal leadership. So, what is important and what is urgent? Priority should be given in the following order

(Quadrant I. Urgent and important (Do) – important deadlines and crises

Quadrant II. Not urgent but important (Plan) – long-term development

Quadrant III. Urgent but not important (Delegate) – distractions with deadlines

Quadrant IV. Not urgent and not important (Eliminate) – frivolous distractions

The order is important; after completing items in quadrant I, we should spend most of our time on II, but many people spend too much time in III and IV. The calls to delegate and eliminate are effective reminders of their relative priority.

If habit 2 advises that you are the programmer, habit 3 advises: write the program, become a leader! Keep personal integrity: what you say vs what you do.

The next three habits talk about Interdependence (e.g., working with others):

4 – Think win-win.

Genuine feelings for mutually beneficial solutions or agreements in your relationships. Value and respect people by understanding a “win” for all is ultimately a better long-term resolution than if only one person in the situation had gotten their way. Think Win-Win isn’t about being nice, nor is it a quick-fix technique. It is a character-based code for human interaction and collaboration.

5 – Seek first to understand, then to be understood.

Use empathetic listening to genuinely understand a person, which compels them to reciprocate the listening and take an open mind to being influenced by you. This creates an atmosphere of caring, and positive problem solving.

The Habit 5 is greatly embraced in the Greek philosophy represented by 3 words:

1) Ethos – your personal credibility. It’s the trust that you inspire, your Emotional Bank Account.

2) Pathos is the empathetic side — it’s the alignment with the emotional trust of another person communication.

3) Logos is the logic — the reasoning part of the presentation.

The order is important: ethos, pathos, logos — your character, and your relationships, and then the logic of your presentation.

6 – Synergize!

Combine the strengths of people through positive teamwork, to achieve goals that no one could have done alone.

7 – Continual improvement!

The final habit is that of continuous improvement in both the personal and interpersonal spheres of influence. Stephen Covey names it as Sharpen the Saw.  This is such a big deal, I have it as one of the Core Values of our historic real estate company, Your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty.  I preach to our people the importance of balancing and renewing your resources, energy, and health to create a sustainable, long-term, effective lifestyle. I primarily emphasize exercise for physical renewal, good prayer (meditation, yoga, etc.) and good reading for mental renewal. And of course, service to society for spiritual renewal.

Covey explains the “Upward Spiral” model in the sharpening the saw section of his book. Through our conscience, along with meaningful and consistent progress, the spiral will result in growth, change, and constant improvement. This Upward Spiral model consists of three parts: learn, commit, do.  So, I must be increasingly educating my conscience in order to grow and develop on the upward spiral. This idea of renewal by education will propel me along the path of personal freedom, security, wisdom, and power (effectiveness at being productive and valuing others).  A direction to an intended destination.

Is It Really the Most Wonderful Time of the Year?

You know the song, the one that says it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Well, there is something to it. The current year is coming to a close, celebration of Christmas and other Faith Driven Holiday Celebrations, all mean different things to different people, but most always represent joy, peace, gratitude and hopefulness. If you look around, you will notice a giving spirit exists unlike at other times of the year. Why can’t it be that way everyday of every year? I think it can.  It just takes effort. Here is what we are doing and how you can help.

Many homeowners wanting to really enjoy this Holiday season are less than enthusiastic because they feel trapped. They are desperate to exit their current home and give themselves a big Christmas Gift – a NEW place to call home.

As a result of working with over 3,000 families over a 19-year time span and through three documented recessions, we have developed a special program to quickly get an acceptable “cash” offer on any home for market value. So, we are giving Homeowners wanting to make a move a very special gift this holiday season.

For the month of December, we will guarantee, in writing, a CASH Offer within 24 Hours at a Price Acceptable to any Homeowner wanting to sell the place they call home*.

I know there is some risk on my part to make such an incredible guarantee like that, but we are selling just about every home we list for the market value price, sometimes even more. So, there is no reason for area home owners, your friends and family, to fret about selling right now.

This is where you come in…

If you or anyone you know is considering making a move, we would like to offer them a FREE No Obligation to Move Consultation to discuss just how they can make their move, get what they want and do it with the least hassle. 

Just like we are thankful for you and your business, I am confident your referrals will be thanking you for steering them in the right direction on getting their home sold!!!

AND remember, YOUR referrals help the Kids!

Each month I do my best to remind you that YOUR referrals change lives… Through our Go Serve Big mission, we are on a mission to raise $10,000 for B Walker Ranch by donating a portion of our income from home sales to them. B Walker Ranch has established itself as one of the top organizations supporting Adults with Autism in the Bay Area. They are dedicated to helping these adults learn and grow in a ranch environment.

As a non-profit, B Walker Ranch depends on Sponsorships and Donations to continue its leading-edge service. We proudly donate a portion of our income from real estate sales to B Walker Ranch to help them continue serving the needs of those who most need it in our community!

Fall Quarterly Newsletter 2019

Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with them two.

Go Serve Big:

The Lifetime Customer System.

What is it that separates some from others in athletics or education or business or the arts, or in any endeavor? It is their drive to do more than is expected or required. One of our team’s core values is Second Mile Service.  When focusing on the second mile, we can’t forget there are two miles in play here. So before I show you what’s in it for you in the second mile, lets document the first mile.

The first mile is simply what is required of us. Yes, we are here to help people buy and sell the place they call home, but there is much more going on than just a real estate transaction.  There is LIFESTYLE CHANGE being pursued.

Our Lifetime Customer System starts when we first enter into a client relationship and seek to gain an understanding of what the FIRST MILE is.  For example, the first page of our Exclusive VIP Seller Agreement, we ask the Seller these 3 questions (you may remember them):

Why are you moving?

What is most important to you in getting your home sold?

What do you feel or think has to happen for you to get what is most important to you?

These 3 questions are essentially the Home Owner/Seller laying out their vision for LIFESTYLE CHANGE.  No one is better at selling homes faster, for more money and with less hassle than we are, but it is critical that we fully understand the WHY behind the change the client is making.  This becomes the FIRST MILE – what it is we must deliver on/what is expected of us (our mandated FIRST MILE).

There can be no second mile service without going the first mile, so what does this Second Mile look like?

Exceeding clients expectations has to be built in to the very fabric of the business from the peoples mind set to the systems to the culture. Anything short would be cutting corners. There really is no Life Time Customer System without being committed to Second Mile Service. They go hand in hand.

At The Almaro Team, our Life Time Customer System (part of our second mile service) breaks down into THREE Programs.

1. YOUR REFERRALS HELP THOSE WHO NEED HELP THE MOST

On the last page of this this newsletter, you will see what I mean by Your Referrals Help Those Who Need Help the Most.  As part of our GO SERVE BIG mission, we donate a portion of our income from EVERY real estate sale to a very worthy cause.  We want you to be part of that. It’s likely as you read this, you have received other newsletters, emails, texts and videos about this.  So whether its Donating over $20,000 to Children’s Hospital, pushing a Toy Drive for the marines, writing a big check to B Walker Ranch so they can remodel the Ma & Pa Kettle Ranch house, or going with Rotary to Afghanistan, Pakistan and Nigeria to install water filtration units, you can rest assured that anyone you send to us wanting to make a move will benefit from our award winning service and a very worthy cause will benefit as well.

2. WE WILL HELP YOU GROW YOUR WEALTH

We bring to our clients opportunities and education to Create More Wealth by INVESTING IN REAL ESTATE.  I became a Multi-Millionaire NOT from my job, but by investing in real estate.  We want you and others to have the same opportunity so we built this in to our Lifetime Customer System. Inside this newsletter you will see a presentation of great deals to consider investing in. These are just a sample of the REAL ESTATE available for you to invest in.  Contrary to popular beliefs, you do not need a lot of your own money to become RICH investing in real estate, but, you do need money. We are experts in helping you learn how to use other people’s money to buy distress sales and bank foreclosures, unlocking the equity in your own home to buy 3 houses for the price of one and partnering with others for Apartment Building investments that CASH FLOW every month.

3. WE ARE A RESOURCE FOR YOUR LIFESTYLE NEEDS

You need a resource like a Dry Cleaner, Florist, or Painter?  We have an APPROVED VENDOR DIRECTORY of 100 businesses in the area vetted and eager to help you.  As I type this, one of our approved vendors is working on my house to remodel one of our bathrooms.  The workers will come and do what they do best… install tile, flooring and counters. They have been vetted through many projects so I know they will do a great job and it will be a fair price. This is obviously just one example.  If you don’t have our Approved Vendor Directory, reach out to us and we’ll send it right over.

Approaching each day with an attitude of ‘good enough never is’ translates into a steady look at questioning the status quo, keeping us dedicated to helping the great people at this fabulous team over deliver to our most valued people… our customers.

Deliver MORE value than what is/was/will be received = over deliver = Lifetime Customers.

As you may have heard, B Walker Ranch is front and center in creating a place where adults with autism can work and learn skills.  We are thankful to have such a wonderful facility close by, doing such great work to help teach and care for young adults.

So even as we are eager to enjoy life, others are simply hoping they can be here to live it.  This is why we here at Your Home Sold Guaranteed have resolved to do what we can to help.

For homes we sell this year, we are donating a portion of our income to B Walker Ranch. Our goal is to raise another $10,000 to help them in their quest to develop a day program for adult people with Autism.

This is where you can help!

Who do you know considering making a move you could refer to my award-winning real estate sales team?

For anyone considering a move that we help, you can rest assured that not only will they get the award winning service we are known for, but that a solid portion of the income we receive from the transaction will go toward a very worthy cause.

I want to make it easy for you to refer your friends, neighbors, associates or family members considering making a move, so you can pass along our business card to them, I have enclosed a couple here for that purpose. Of course you can always call me direct as well at 925-216-7720.

You and your referrals mean more than ever to my team and I.  As we move forward in this new season, please know we are extremely thankful for you and you being a special part of our business.

With all my appreciation,

November Newsletter 2019

THANK YOU, AND

The month of November brings about an extra opportunity to say Thank You for being a valuable part of our business.  As most begin to prepare for the Holiday season, plan Thanksgiving get-togethers and the like, it’s easy to become wrapped up in all that we have to do to ensure a fun, joyful time for all we are responsible for and overlook all that we have to be thankful for. Gratitude though is an attitude that is contagious!

Unfortunately, many homeowners are desperate to exit their current home.  Actually, loathing this time of year as it adds to the frustration of not being settled for the Holiday’s.  You may know someone or a family that fits this description.

Here’s where you and I can HELP!

HAVING PEACE OF MIND AND GETTING TOP DOLLAR FOR YOUR HOME. EXPERIENCE COUNTS!

As a result of working with over 3,000 families over a 19-year time span and through three documented recessions, we have developed a special market-proof program to quickly get an acceptable “cash” offer on any home for market value. So, we are giving Home Owners wanting to make a move a very special gift this holiday season.

OUR GUARANTEE to you, your friends and family—

We will guarantee, in writing, a CASH Offer within 24 Hours at a Price Acceptable to any Home Owner wanting to sell the place they call home.*

There is some risk on my part to make such an incredible guarantee, but we are selling just about every home we list for the market value price, sometimes even more, so there is no reason for area home owners, your friends and family, to fret about selling right now.

This is where you come in…  If you or anyone you know is considering making a move, we would like to offer them a FREE No Obligation to Sell Consultation to discuss just how they can make their move, get what they want and do it with the least hassle.

Just like we are thankful for you and your business, I am confident your referrals will be thanking you for steering them in the right direction on getting their home sold!!!

A Real Estate Company that Gives Back

And remember… Your Referrals Help Continue the Life Changing Work by Rotary!

Through our Go Serve Big mission statement we are on a quest to raise $10,000 for Rotary! We are VERY CLOSE to our goal of raising money for Rotary this year, the #1 leading non-profit on a mission to rid the world of polio forever. We do this by donating, a portion of our income from homes we sell, to Rotary!

Rotary is Making a Difference Today and for Tomorrow

As you know Rotary does leading edge work in helping kids fight through and survive nasty life threatening diseases like polio. As well as being a leader in providing clean water, support and education. Last year they immunized over 2,500,000 kids around the world against polio.  They also help communities just like yours. For example, Rotary Club of Concord brings together local business owners and community leaders who help each other grow their businesses and better the community.
