Check out Fixr – the “eBay for Contractors.”

I am always impressed with a company that has a unique idea and value proposition.

Home improvement is always a hot topic – and usually something that Realtors know a good deal about. As a Realtor, you know how important an upgraded kitchen or bath can be when listing a home, or how it pays to scrape the “popcorn” off your ceiling, or even the power of new lighting throughout the home to make it “light and bright.” When a home is picture perfect it makes it that much easier to sell, and to sell for the best price possible.

Fixr is a home improvement site that I was first introduced to on LinkedIn. Described by the press as an “ebay for contractors”, fixR is a Home Improvement, Renovations & Repair services marketplace.

How Fixr works:

Describe your project and post it 100% free

Get estimates from qualified pros in your area (love the local feature!)

Pick the best based on quality, reputation and price

Pretty cool concept! I really like this for a home owner but also for the agent.

Thursday night I met a few friends at Smackers Sports Grill, well known as a great place to eat in Waynesville. Smackers Sports Grill is very conveniently located, very reasonably priced, easy to find, is situated right between Waynesville and Maggie Valley on Dellwood Road, and is a local favorite.

Here’s is a link to my review of Smackers on Yelp.
