Realestateauctions.com provides the freedom to think outside the box, travel the world
and enjoy interacting with others on a common ground. We recently decided to take a month and see how others live and enjoy their life.
We flew to Manchester England, picked up a taxi for a "breath taking" ride for a little over an hour. Our friends and client invited my wife and I to join them on a "narrow boat " approx 9' wide to travel up the Leeds - Liverpool canal. The 4 of us ran the boat and opened all the locks as we were lifted up or dropped to other level of water. What an interesting work experience and it was work but fun. The Diesel engine was designed run no more than 4 miles an hour in these 20-25' wide canal. We slept to 9ish, had boat breakfast and traveled the canal say 10 - 4. We would spend 25 minutes to an hour going through a lock. At 4 pm we would rest (nap maybe, read, nothing) until 5:30ish and then fine a local PUB where we would consume food and Guinness or something else. Returning back to the narrow boat around 7:30ish some would read and other would head for the 2.5' bunk. We would get up the day and do the same.
This experience allow us to meet other boat people with wonderful kind attitudes doing the same for a little as a day or living on the narrow boat. These live on boats were outfitted like an RV with TV, kitchen, restroom and living room. I haven't shared two of the best parts: people and countryside.
The people sounded funny (ha,ha) but would give you all the information and help you desired. They couldn't do enough and "always" asked, how are you enjoying you trip. Secondly, the countryside and canal appearance would change around each corner and on the other side of the hill, very, very charming and clean.
While walking around these small and larger towns searching out a Pub, I spoke with several realtor's and we discussed the move towards selling the real estate via auction. There are several real estate auction companies operating in England. I am thinking our common ground is being caring people willing to share and look beyond ourselves.
Real estate is one of those careers that can allow you the freedom to reach out to others and learn. It is some important to have the freedom to choice and not be tied to a schedule work time and place Thus we are free to step out and experience once in a life time adventure(s).
