Hurry and read Barbara-Jo's post 'What Does a Buyer's Agent Actually Do?' 
If you are a buyer, pick up the phone and call Barbara-Jo right now.  She is a hard-working buyer agent who will definitely do everything on her list.
Via Barbara-Jo's Beach Blog - Palm Harbor Florida Real Estate (Charles Rutenberg Realty):
What does a buyer's agent actually do? When a client asks that, we as Realtors need to have our response ready.
Here is MY response:
- The first thing I do is make sure that the person is prequalified. Most clients are NOT, so it is my job to … (6 comments)

THE OLYMPIC SPIRIT AND REAL ESTATE - 07/30/12 12:22 PM
Don't miss Paula McDonald's post:  The Olympic Spirit and Real Estate.  I clicked SUGGEST before re-blogging.
I agree with Paula that real estate takes a lot of dedication, grit and a whole lot of stamia to be a Super STAR.  Read The Olympic Spirit and Real Estate post and I am sure that you will agree.  Then hit SUGGEST button.
Via Paula McDonald, The Woodlands, TX ~ 936-203-0279 (Chevaux Group, PLLC):
THE OLYMPIC SPIRIT AND REAL ESTATE

As I have remained glued to my TV over these past few days watching the Olympics, I am always inspired by the stories of these athletes.

Up with the Birds - 07/24/12 10:21 AM
Up with the Birds

Ocean City, MD
Isle of Wight Bay


No matter when or where I wake up I like to start my day with a walk.  There is no better walk than along the waterfront.  The wildlife is often more active during the cooler morning hours.
On my way back to the hotel I missed a photo of fox carrying prey back to his den.  Tomorrow I will have my camera ready . . .

Life is Good - But are you Retro? - 07/16/12 02:45 PM
Life is good, so why change? Can't things just stay the same indefinitely?
Patricia's post is excellent post, right up my alley so to speak.  I hate to change or update as it means that I have to learn something new.  I have to get out of my comfort zone.
Can you relate?
 
Via Patricia Feager (Keller Williams Realty):
Well, here we are folks less than half way away from the first of the year. Life is good for some but are you caught up in a Retro World?
TODAY YOU'RE IN; TOMORROW YOU'RE OUT!

What an Aroma! - 07/10/12 07:12 PM
What an Aroma!


See what I found while walking through a parking lot.  One lone flower blooming along side the asphalt and concrete.  Nature's way of taking advantage of what open space is available.
