It is all too easy to take the roof over your business for granted, and it is something that most people very rarely think about during the working day. It is always there; it is likely that it was there before you started working at your company, and it will probably be there long after you have moved on to another job. Chances are that you have never even considered it on its own; if it should ever come into your mind, it is as a part of the building as a whole.

In Facilities Management, however, the roof over an office or commercial building is of vital importance; its upkeep and maintenance is always at the forefront of the thoughts of a facility manager, and it is something that has to be considered separately and given its own budget and attention. When you consider the number of functions a roof has to perform, it is easy to see why it is of such vital importance, and why it must be afforded such treatment and due diligence. Your roof can only perform these essential functions properly if it is in good condition, and an ageing, poorly maintained roof can have devastating effects on a business, both in terms of its output and efficiency.

But what are these essential jobs for a roof? As stated before, it is unlikely that most people have taken the time to think about what their roof actually does for them, and less likely still that they have considered what it is doing for the business they work in. The most obvious tasks a covering on a building has to accomplish is to provide warmth and shelter. A cold, ill workforce typing, writing or drawing at a wet workstation is an absurd notion – besides which, it is extremely dangerous, especially in companies where electrical equipment is utilised.

A further function roofing has to be equipped for is the retention of the aforementioned warmth and energy. A company that is trying to turn a profit does not want to spend undue amounts of its revenue on central heating to keep its workers warm, so when there are savings to be made through something as simple as the upkeep of a roof, every business is likely to seize upon the chance to see some of that money back. During difficult times for many businesses, every penny saved can make a huge difference.

Many people often dream of owning a house at one time in their lives. Buying a house is usually an important step in many people’s lives. Thus, the whole buying process should be done carefully and in the best way possible. In case you are a first time real estate buyer, the following guidelines will help you get the best home.

You should follow these fives steps to ensure you acquire the right property in the market:

1. Before starting to look, do your own research and get some detailed information about the property market. To secure a good deal, you must be well informed and must be able to apply different buying strategies when faced with challenges. Thus, it is important to always take time to research and understand the dos and don’ts that are associated with buying property.

1. Decide in advance on the kind of structure you want. There are many different real estate designs in any market, and you can quickly get caught up in the excitement. Before you start looking at houses, have a picture in your mind of what you want, and try not get distracted by all of the different available options. Use the Internet to identify the different options available before you actually go shopping. You can also get detailed information from the different Mls property magazines that are usually produced each month.

1. Seek referrals from people you know and trust. If you have a neighbor who has just moved in, find out how he learned of the property and the steps he took until he successfully bought or rented the house he is living in. By talking to people, you will be able to learn more about the best agents to work with and the property market rates that many dealers currently operate within.

1. Identify, approach and discuss with a trustworthy real estate agent about your immediate needs. Getting a good agent is not usually as difficult as many assume. By looking at their past record, and meeting with them, you can quickly determine if a particular realtor is the right one for you or not. Other things to look at include the professional experience, the reputation they hold and the service license they hold. When discussing with the agent, ensure that you inform them of your needs and expectations. It is also important to agree on how much you will pay them for their services, if anything at all. Typically, the seller pays 2.5% of the sale price to the agent selling the house, and 2.5% to the agent that brings the buyer. They buyer doesn’t usually pay anything to the agent for their services.

1. When the right house has been identified, set some time aside to visit and assess the place before making any final decisions or putting down any deposits. Check the general décor when touring the place. If you are planning on buying a fully furnished house, find out if the house has all the necessities in place or not. Carry out a detailed assessment that will help you make up your mind on whether to buy the property or not.

Once you are satisfied with your choice, ask your realor to draw up and offer and present it to the seller. If the offer is accepted, documents such as the title deed and other relevant ownership certificate will be signed and exchanged. It is advisable to have a lawyer review all documents before you sign anything. This will ensure that your assets are protected, and that the closing will go smoothly and on time.

There are a lot of real estate brokerages in any major city. Some of these real estate brokerages have hundreds, if not thousands of agents spread out over an enormous city boundary. How do you interview the different real estate agents and brokers to find the one that is right for you? I think the biggest thing is to find someone you are comfortable with, but there are a few blocks you should check in an interview before entering into an agreement with an agent to represent you.

1) Check for Real Estate Agent Personality: How personable is the agent? Is the agent friendly when corresponding with you via email? Can you easily get in touch with them throughout the day and when you do, are they easy to speak with on the phone? Do they take the time to get to know you and your family? Do they seem in touch with your style and adjust your searches accordingly?

2) Inquire about Real Estate Agent Knowledge: How knowledgeable are they? While it should be very important that a real estate agent is personable, they also need to know what they are doing. If not, you should be friends, not having them quarterback one of the largest financial purchases of your life. For example in Houston, with it’s geographic size, one agent can’t know it all. Don’t measure knowledge by experience. Experience can often lead to a great deal of knowledge, but I’ve run into many agents that have been around for awhile and don’t now real estate: the area, the process, and the market. You can get a food feel for an agent’s knowledge by asking them same basic questions about neighborhoods. See how much they know off the top of their head and how comfortable they are talking about homes in the areas you are interested. You can also find out what they specialize in. Their marketing will usually tell you a lot about that; however, don’t use that as your sole source for what they know. Just like experience can be misleading, so can marketing.

3) Inquire about Real Estate Tools Provided: What sort of services/tools does the agent bring to the table? There area lot of services available in the real estate market. Does the agent have a customized list they can send to you? Will they pick you up and tour you to the properties that you want to view? How easy is their website to use? If they are selling your home what mediums will they use to advertise your home? Are they creative with those mediums? Do they have examples to show you from past homes they have sold? Their services and tools for you to use in your search for a new home or sale of your current one shouldn’t be limited.

Okay so, I didn’t scare you away, that’s a good sign, so let’s talk.

You see, I first got into the mobile car wash business accidentally, as I started washing aircraft at age 12 back in 1977. Unfortunately, and this was a big hardship, I was too young to get a driver’s license, so I rode my bicycle to the airport, washed airplanes and then road home. I towed around my equipment in an industrial tool box with big wheels on it – by tying a rope to the seat post of my bicycle – yep, nothing good in life is easy.

Eventually, 4-years later, and it seemed like forever, I did get my driver’s license and put all the equipment into the back of a pick-up and occasionally washed vehicles too. Everyone liked it, and I found some aircraft owners who had truck fleets and they hired me to come clean them on-site. That’s how it all started. Well, there was a lot of work, meaning as long as you did the work – there was some money available to grow the business – yes, and live well, for a 16-year old anyway.

The business of washing vehicles grew very fast, as there were more cars than aircraft, so I was busy as heck. I couldn’t hire my friends and school mates fast enough to do all the fleet washing, and personal cars at office buildings, and I still had the aircraft cleaning service, and I suppose one of my workers had slipped in that nomination for “most likely to succeed” – but I hardly thought so, all I knew is that between grades and sports, and the business, I was running redline, and wondered how could anyone hope to succeed like that.

Later of course, I learned probably like you that it takes hard work to make it in such a world. Over the years the business grew, and we had some 53-units operating in 39 cities, some I owned, others were independent contractors. Eventually we had to franchise to stay within the law and definition of our highly modified business model.

Okay so, this article is not about “How To” because, quite frankly there are just too many articles, DVDs, and books already out there on “How to Start a Mobile Car Wash Business” and pretty much everyone has their own methods and way of doing things. No way is bad if it works for you, but there are more efficient ways of doing all aspects of the business, depending on regional variations such as; weather, labor supply, demographics, and customer demands.

Rather, the point I want to make hear and I hope I’ve hammered it home, is that if a young, naïve, and stupid teenager like me can start a business like this anyone can. And let’s just call this your inspiration for the day, to kick you in the rear and really ask yourself if you want to do it or not. Don’t say you can’t, because if you do, I’ll simply say; “you mean you won’t, because I know you can, if you decide too.” In fact, I was reminded of the excuses that people make in life when they say they can’t by another self-made entrepreneur the other day.
