It was a day like any other. SCV residents Nikki and Jim Miller, busy parents to two small children, had just returned from a much-needed lunch date. A quick glance outside, though, changed everything.
After 30 years of success in Santa Clarita real estate, I get asked a lot: "What's the key to your success?" The truth is, there's no magic bullet for real estate. The best results come from a mix of experience, tenacity, attention to detail, a deep desire to do the best by your client, the cultivation of relationships and a passion for people. Still, in 30 years, you learn a few things that, when consistently repeated, become a part of you... and part of your business.
Here's 30 that have shaped who I am as a realtor - and person.

Traffic is the weather of Southern California. In this land where we can take sunshine for granted, it's the number of cars on the road that makes or breaks our day. You would gladly give up every weather forecast app if it meant you could keep your precious Waze. And you can't blame being late on a blizzard, but saying there was a Sig-Alert works every time. It's easy to get caught up thinking about traffic in the short term: Will you make it to little Billy's pottery-glazing exhibition? The long-term future is just as concerning, but there may be a little hope in store.
Look at you, saving the best for last. Gift cards? No way. You're packing a personalized punch, fueling the presumption that these great gifts have been stashed for months. And they have - just not by you. SCV's locally-owned shops have been planning for your holiday-giving mad dash forever - and judging from this selection, it was worth it. So go, happy givers! And remember - when you shop local, your gift-giving good karma doesn't stop at what's under the tree. Every local purchase is an investment in your community. Thanks for shopping Santa Clarita!
Parents of young children know all too well how difficult it can be to handle challenging behaviors. Young children are dealing with so many emotions that even the simplest transition can become an epic meltdown.
This month, why don't you... donate your time, share sweets and more.
Let's get this out of the way right now. I realize that most women, and a fair number of men, would never consider attending a "make-something" workshop an outside-the-box activity worthy of a "... And didn't Die" column. Those people are not me.
Grab your SO, BFF or DD/DS, because duo costumes are the top Halloween trend of '18!
