Great Article about Lee County Permitting Slowing - 10:13 AM
This is a fantastic ad showing that inventory is greatly reducing and the market is becoming more consistant. LEE PERMITTING SLOWS AFTER JUNE RUSH   FORT MYERS, Fla. (Sept. 4, 2007) - During August, Lee County Community Development issued 63 permits for single-family homes to be built in unincorporated Lee County, Bonita Springs and Fort Myers Beach.  That is the lowest monthly number of single-family home permits issued by Lee County since November 1981, when 45 were issued.    Residential permits were valued at $16.9 million.  There were 135 permits issued in July 2007 and 588 issued in August 2006.  About 58 percent of the single-family … (1 comments)

Get new construction representation! - 10:02 PM
Most people recognize the value in using a real estate agent when buying a resale property.  The buyer knows that the seller is represented by the listing agent. As a result, the buyer will generally employ their own realtor to represent them throughout the buying process.  When it comes to buying new construction, however, most people feel they don't need a realtor.    
Most buyers don't realize that using a realtor when buying new construction is every bit as important as using a realtor for buying a resale property.  Their thought is that between the Central Sales Office representative and the builder's … (1 comments)

New United Country Color Catalogs - 10:58 PM
Almost 80 years ago, United Country Real Estate published their first magazine of listings. We're still going strong! The flagship catalog, the United Country Color Catalog, is published twice each year and has an almost cult like following. 
When I joined United Country back in 2003, I was still learning the inventory when I received a call from an older gentleman. He proceeded to ask a few questions about a particular piece of property. While I knew I was new, I also knew we had no such piece of land listed. The caller was becoming very agitated with me. Finally, I asked … (0 comments)

I Lost A Listing - 02:42 AM
I lost a listing a week ago. I was surprised. They had moved to California and I had over 30 showings on the property but no offer.
 What happened?
Before I listed the property I went over everything that needed to be done to prepare the house. They painted the great room, painted the ceiling, painted the bedroom, painted the trim and flower boxes. They did everything I asked but REMOVE The Green Ivy Wallpaper from the kitchen and nook. They liked it and didn't want to remove it. It was a former builders model in the 90's.
The house also backs up … (167 comments)

Mortgage servicers urged to help stem foreclosures - 08:09 PM
Federal and state regulators are busy at work. They came out again today to try to charm the mortgage industry into working with at-risk homeowners to help them avoid foreclosure. Their main focus is on the subprime borrower who acquired a home loan with a spotty credit record. This time they would like the loan servicer sector, the conduit between the homeowner and the investor who bought mortgage securities on the secondary market, to provide any relief they can think of.
It's rather questionable how much their special guidance is going help because it is all voluntary. They're hopeful, though, that the … (2 comments)

Funny Video...but Good Advertising, Too - 12:40 AM
When you put something out there...say, a giant 12-foot version of your head on a billboard, for example...you just never know what might come back to you!
A while back I decided to step up some of my advertising by adding a billboard.  You have no idea how many car accidents there were in Hemet while the billboard was up, but that's not the important part.
The important part is that sometimes, when you take action, there are totally unexpected consequences.  This is called the Processional Effect.  Here's what happened in this case:
Not too long after I put up the billboard, Pastor John at Community … (27 comments)

My Memories From 2001 - 12:03 PM
 
Even though it happened six years ago, we all remember what we were doing at 8:50 that morning. Up until 9/11/2001 I always looked forward to this day....

The call center handled calls for camping reservations for all parks in the United States run by the Army Corps of Engineers, CA, FL, MA, NY, CT State Parks and the Boundary Waters along with taking hotel reservations for Iloveny.com. The call center was located in a small village in Upstate NY, about 2 … (24 comments)
