My Life as a Realtor – Day 178
My Life as a Realtor ~
Day 178:
Looks as though the market is beginning to pick up now after the holidays. I have a few scheduled appointments with my listings and have noticed more activity in viewings on Listing Book in New York and especially with my listings in Connecticut. This makes me smile – along with today being Friday!!
Did a few errands – then worked from home. My poor laptop never gets a break. While at home, I took a few pics of our pets playing around at home…
Moe hiding at the top of the stairs leading to Melissa’s room. As I walked by, he tried swiping at my head. For some reason Remi is afraid to climb up…
So he hangs out and waits for Moe to come down so he can chase him around the entire house…
Tisha preferred to hang out with me while I made my bed. She wants nothing to do with Remi and Moe’s cat and dog game.

My Life as a Realtor – Day 119
My Life as a Realtor ~
Day 119:
Thursday – working from home – a few new potential clients signing up for a FREE Listing Book Account. In Connecticut… www.DianaSantosCT.ListingBook.com and in New York… www.DianaSantosNY.ListingBook.com – keeping in mind that the New York account shows home in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess Counties – and the Connecticut account shows homes in Fairfield and parts of Litchfield Counties.
Made a delicious home-made soup with loads of sweet potatoes, carrots, home-made sausage, cabbage, rice and beans – YUMO! I always make it in the largest pot I have so that we have leftovers – at least for one day since left overs never last for very long with 5 kids!
In the early evening, I flew to Enterprise Car Rental in Danbury, CT. I switched out the Chevy Colbat for a Toyota Yaris. This will save us on gas and rental fees. Bill assisted me – who by the way, has been very patient with me.

Day 107:
It’s Thursday – Morning Office Meeting today to go over Listing Book – a great way for buyers to search like an agent! Information on each listing is updated approximately every 30 minutes.
I have 2 accounts – Connecticut – DianaSantosCT.ListingBook.com
and New York – DianaSantosNY.ListingBook.com
After the meeting, home – back out for errands – back home for dinner – and back out to pick up Jonathan at soccer practice… that he had in the pouring rain…
New Fairfield High School Turf Field
When Jonathan got into the car, he said, “This was the best practice ever!” Oh, I wouldn’t have been so cheery – I hate getting caught in the rain and I hate the cold! When I retire, it should be somewhere in the South.

On my way home – from Brewster, NY to New Fairfield, CT – I swung by my listing – 52 Mountain Brook Road – Brewster, NY – to add some listing sheets to the outside brochure box.

GETTING TO KNOW ME
As a full time REALTOR in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties in NEW YORK – and Fairfield and parts of Litchfield counties in CONNECTICUT , I am very pleased to have the opportunity to share my passions on REAL ESTATE, FAMILY, PETS, anything and everything in and around a HOME – including COOKING, MOVIES, MUSIC and more!
I have been married for 25+ years to my wonderful husband Joe. We have 5 children – Melissa, David, Amanda, Sara and Jonathan. After waiting anxiously – for almost 17 years, being home with my kids for 10 and a Nursery school teacher for 7 years – I FINALLY became a Licensed Realtor – first in Connecticut – where my family and I live – and then in New York – where my office, Century 21 V.J.F. Realty is located.
I was born and raised in Mt. Vernon, New York. My parents, who came to the US from Portugal, were extremely hard working – with even stronger ethics on being good to everyone – everywhere – period! “Faz bem, nao olhes a quem.” This has been instilled in me all my life, which has made me the mother, wife, daughter, sister, friend and the REALTOR I am today. Thank You Ma and Papa.
